    I’m sorry that taxing and auditing the rich, getting paid sick leave to railroad workers, expanding healthcare coverage to millions of americans, keeping literal nazis who set up illegal tents and cages out of power, etc aren’t “positive outcome” to you.

    Just so we’re clear, everything happening right now is happening because millions less people voted in 2024 than in 2020.

      This is just wrong according to newer studies. https://www.npr.org/2025/06/26/nx-s1-5447450/trump-2024-election-non-voters-coalition

      I think dems lost because the campaign they ran on was “remember the last 4 years? It’s gonna be the same again! No real change” and it completely distanced themselves from those who are struggling due to inflation, the job market, etc. Trump promised “change” and that’s all the people want. It doesn’t matter if it’s good or bad change, but that’s why Trump won in my opinion. The dems need to push for and talk about “change” in the next midterms or else this country is lost.
