Unfortunately, it looks like Trump is headed for a landslide unless something significant happens within the next few weeks. Buckle up!
"...unless something significant happens..."
Yeah, like all of us voting.
Sure, but Democrats seem very easy to discourage into not voting compared to conservatives.
Are you easily discouraged? Do you stamp your feet an yell when you don't get 100% your way, 100% of the time? Or do you recognize that other people exist and have different needs and wants?
It's a fact that Democrats and progressives don't show up as consistently to vote as conservatives. It's just not part of the culture like it is for conservatives.
Trump is a convicted felon and it does not make a difference for his voters. Biden has a bad debate and Democrats are fleeing left and right. That's how you lose elections.
Oh well I guess just don't bother to vote then since clearly we're gonna lose

One is a cult of press-stamped NPCs, the other is a massively varied collection of people that want everything their way or they are taking their ball and going home. It is a rough position to be in when your party has to cover "everyone that isn't a conservative"...it's a huge majority of people to gather up under one umbrella.
