The Democrats forced someone with massively underwater approval numbers on their electorate in 2016, keeping all “serious” candidates out of the field (which is why Bernie ran to begin with as a “if nobody will run I guess I will”) and called people like me calling for RBG to retire while she could be replaced to save abortion rights “sexist” for being skeptical that opening a rift to the girlboss universe by Clinton appointing RBG’s replacement at midnight on a full moon or whatever wasn’t worth risking the legality of abortion in America.
The DNC has a history of playing with fire while facing Donald Trump specifically and getting burned, while setting everything on fire. According to reporting even Obama is horrified that Biden is overtly making no effort to be re-elected. He’s hardly started to organize in swing states even, and per all reporting seems to literally have no plan.
I think you have a rose-tinted view of the Democrats ability to function in the most basic ways, much less win elections, and especially in the case of Biden, who has never won an election where he wasn’t an incumbent or running against someone who mismanaged a pandemic during that pandemic (except during the Nixon administration). In 2020, he literally called an Iowa voter “fats” and challenged him to a fist fight (wonder why he didn’t win). This man has no record of actually winning competitive races without a massive advantage and is literally currently underwater while Trump overperformed polls by like 15 points in 2020. This just seems to me like running the Titanic into the glacier with no attempt to avoid disaster.
