    I’m not a US citizen but I agree with this. Biden was a weak leader and everyone was praying he gets off the stage every time he talked in the 2024 elections. He stepped down too late, Kamala had very little time to set up a campaign, and everything she said made it sound like she’s Biden 2.0, including supporting wars that alienated people voting for her. When your entire campaign is based on “at least we’re not the other side!” and nothing else, there is no enthusiasm to support you.

    They need to do better next time :P

      Not just that, but a post above this one says how the constituency may have lost their faith in the democrat party and why the elite rhetoric used against democrats sort of has legs to stand on. If it’s just a central body that decides the candidate and the constituency has no say, why even care? The choice has been made for you.

        DNC komissars overplayed their hand in 2016, they have nothing to offer besides ramming shit through because they think theu control the media.

        When WaPo didnt endorse Kamala, people shoulda read the room.

        Bezos saw she was gonna flop, why waste political capital lol
