“The bottom line is this: Donald Trump is setting new records for himself in term No. 2, setting new records for himself compared to where he was at this time in term No. 1. And he is doing worse than Biden, which is of course a comparison that Donald Trump does not want to be because we all know what happened to Joe Biden,” noted Enten after running through the numbers.

    In a two party system, either one wins, or the other, which means for the Democrats to win, mathematically, all they need to be is slightly better than Trump, and so, they constantly run candidates that are horrible, but not quite as bad, this maximising corporate donations while staying in office.

    Now, if you’re an informed voter, you’ll recognise this, and demand better. But if you’re the DNC, who despise their voters enough to do this in the first place, you’ll conclude you only lost because the voters are too stupid to do the math.
