Yeah, the whole doom and gloom thing wasn't really inspiring anybody. When you're telling people you're going to raise their taxes and destroy the economy by getting rid of fossil fuels you have to have some limits.

What leftists/communists fail to understand is the most basic U.S. political strategy: move towards your Party's ideological base (further ledt/right) during the Primaries. Once you have won your Party's nomination, move toward the county's ideological center so as to gain interest from both left and right leaning voters.

These communists are terrified of upsetting their extreme-left base, whereas Trump supporters represent a near dead-center base -- not far-right at all.

God willing, landslide incoming.

Bill Clinton was a master of this. Obama slightly less so, but still understood it well enough.

The left has pushed all their chips in with their Commie Antifa nonsense. It's gonna go VERY poorly, I'm more confident than ever of a Red Wave incoming.

Because if they pull off a "successful" election, it gives them the go ahead to tear down everything with impunity. 2016 was divine intervention as it, too, carried the same motives

Edit: Not "immunity" -they've already had that

id love to hear what the ppl on the ground for biden talk about to the residents...

"so how guilty are you for being white?" " We have to accept our white privellage" " Yes we want to ban fossil fuels but its ok because we are doing it for a better world" "Yes we are going to defund the police and take your guns but dont you care about black people getting killed by cops and kids getting killed in schools"

I really don't know how so many people can work against themselves by supporting the Democrats right now. Even if you have TDS, you would have to completely ignore everything the Democrats are promising to do to want them in power. If I hated Trump that much I would just vote 3rd party or something. Especially with such a weak and terrible ticket like Biden and Harris, who will top the list of "also rans" as possibly the worst major party ticket in Presidential election history.

Right? Likely, if you are a democrat and think that fossil fuels need to go, you probably are part of the group who will be taxed. Notice how the tax raises are just on "the upper class" not any specific salary? Because theyre going to raise taxes on anyone that makes more than 50k/year (well, everyone else too because trumps tax cuts are gonna be gone).

And even if you aren't part of that group, if you're part of the lower class group that doesn't work for the oil industry, then you're going to get fucked during the shut downs that Biden had been espousing.

I know most people aren't paying attention or are retarded but goodness me...

during lockdowns, people are sick of it - horrible campaign strategy.
