    It doesn’t matter what your platform is if it’s not communicated effectively to the median voter

      How do you communicate effectively to someone with their fingers in their ears screaming nananananananana? Please advise, oh political oracle.

        Who do you think the people putting their fingers in their ears are, in this case?

        With all the fucking TV ads and mailers the campaign spent billions on. If the average voters is just covering there ears then why spend so much on advertising or why even campaign at all? Yeah some people are like that but they’re deep in the maga cult, there’s still a large amount of people open to both sides if the messaging is right that decided this election. Harris’ messaging didn’t work though.

          I mean the marketing was effective. A lot of people including Donald trump thought he was going to lose. Just not effective at getting people who support Biden to get off their ass.
