    I’m of the opinion that retrospective Obama love represents missing normalcy more than actual Obama, even if not everybody realizes that.

      Republicans love trump.

      Only centrists love biden.

      Trump has the support of most of a party.

      Biden has the support of the shitty half of a party.

      Yeah, but half of the country has abused spouse syndrome with trump. While the nicest things most progressive people have to say about Biden is that he wasn’t Trump.

      But his political base likes him. Biden was hated by republicans, and anyone that didn’t want to commit genocide.

        This is basically why Democratic politicians are less popular than Republican ones. A Republican president will be liked by 90%+ of his party and nearly no Democrats. A Democratic president is liked by half of his party and called a genocide supporter by the other half, and supported by nearly no Republicans.

          Only the ones that back genocide.

          It’s pretty easy to not be called a genocide supporter. Don’t support genocide.

      trump is his legacy

      Trump is also the legacy of everyone who argued that Biden “had to be the nominee”, here, there and everywhere. Trump is the legacy of everyone who permitted Harris to go uncriticized for her DEEPLY unpopular stances on literally every policy position, because “being critical of her would help Trump”.

      This election did not need go the way it did.

        Centrists spent all their time “slamming” progressives and then lost to republicans that they barely put up a fight against and basically tried to immitate. But somehow they still think that its all the dirty progressives fault that they lost. They didnt lose to progressives. Progressives lost to them, and centrists lost to republicans. Thats Joe Bidens legacy. Its the pattern of his whole career.

    Man if only there was something dems could learn from this by looking at the difference between those two campaigns…. Hmm…. Change…. And nothing will change…. Hmmmm…… nope can’t find a difference, maybe it means we should move to the center.

    To everyone who insisted that Biden “had to be the nominee” in the 8 months of campaigning we had prior to him stepping down: Trump is a result of your actions.
