And this is exactly what's wrong with the Democrats, and why Biden never should've run. They're too comfortable in their big houses with all their money and privilege. They have no fucking idea what it's like for most Americans, and clearly they don't care because they've never had to. There is no party in the US to fight for regular people, so they didn't vote.

They are shit but they cant be alarmist reactionaries either. They need change but trying to encourage stability and console people isnt the worst

Except that they've spent the last 6 months telling everyone that it's a choice between them and fascism. Then when fascism comes they're like "oh well, we tried".

I'm just hoping that this loss will eventually make the Dems look inward, but I'm not holding my breath when he's saying shit like this.

I remember everyone saying the exact same in 2016. "Maybe Dems will reflect." Other than putting up a white man for 2020, I can't see a single difference in their approach ever since.

They basically did the same thing, but without super delegates. If the primaries are so corrupt that we just keep losing anyways, then we have no choice but to vote for a third party.

Very valid point, just goes to show the hyperbolic shit flinging that is the core of American politics.
