 I think you're underestimating how much the democrats alienated their base by pandering to republicans. 

You are in your own bubble. We all are. My bubble is former democrats who have removed themselves from party but also didn't want Trump. So yes, many people just stayed home.

 She got the same amount of votes on average as past Dems so your over estimating it. 2020 was an outliner of fake voting or peak Trump hate.

 It was peak Trump hate. He was really bad at his job. We were all tired of his shit.

 Yes with a big side of fraud. 15-20 million is a lot of voters to just disappear. Trump hate is still very much there...... 2020 going stand out like a sore thumb for decades.

 They really really hated him. 😂 Everyone around me was like OMG literally Hitler and he uses spray tan.
So, they elected a Marxist airhead and someone with obvious dementia. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don't really get it, but I guess they decided to not double-down on the airhead, this go around.

 Those messages are still being pushed though. 15 million just dropped off from this hate fuel? Very hard to believe but it doesn't matter. We move forward.
