Biden axes public option, lowering Medicare eligibility age, student debt forgiveness & increasing estate tax. Of course!!! I can’t believe progressives in Washington really thought he would support and fight for those things. That’s incredibly naive. We’ll get nothing instead.

What’s going to be the incentive for people to stand in kind for seven hours to vote for Democrats in 2022?

I’ve literally ran out of reasons to bother voting, the entire govt is owned by corporate America.

Because of this: cambridge.org/core/journals/… " . . economic elites and organized groups representing business interests have substantial independent impacts on U.S. government policy, while average citizens and mass-based interest groups have little or no independent influence."

"where else are you gonna go" "every vote for 3rd party is a vote for Trump" "would you rather it be Trump" "harm reduction" "vote for the lesser evil" "stop with the purity test" "we don't need you anyway" These are what you Biden voters told us last year.......

None-which is why if Biden is re-elected,it'll be by pure dumb luck and it won't matter because the Fourth Riech will control both houses. But rich centrists don't care bc they'll be fine no matter if it's still a small d democracy or an authoritarian fascist government.

There won’t be and a more charming monster will arise from GOP
Replying to @marwilliamson @cenkuygur
I am not voting for the “ lesser evil “. This is not even a left party.Why should I support it? They’ve done things that Republicans only dream about. But since you are not on the left you will not understand.
Replying to @marwilliamson @cenkuygur
You’re right, my fear is millions of #Democrats will sit it out 🤷🏻‍♂️ @KyleKulinski was right! Every #Progressive piece of legislation the #BidenAdministration ignores is red meat for #Republicans - these are layups and we should have an enormous lead. But instead we’re losing!

There isn’t by design because we only have two faces for one party. The rich people’s party.
