I mean assuming the fascists deign to have elections ever again, yeah? After all, Joe Manchin and Jared Golden "saved America" (or at least its corporations) by thwarting the radical socialist Biden "Go Big or Go Home" agenda like the $15/hr minimum wage, the child tax credit and free community college in 2021. Archetypical liberals they truly are! Save capitalism at all cost (and boy did it cost, apparently*). Manchin's rich so he must be smart, and he certainly won't have problems attracting corporate dark money, A model for the future? I mean, is it about principles or about blues beating the reds like the blues and greens of Ancient Rome?
, I hope.
The Democrats' response after the defeats of McGovern and Mondale was to move further to the right and become more like the GOP. It's one of the reasons that the GOP hates the Clintons so much: they encroached on the GOP's turf. This time you might have to toss a bunch more Jesus into the mix as well. Will history repeat? Has history ended? Could Democrats ever convince the media and internet of their sincerity if they did move right? And who would bother to show up to vote if all that happened? So many questions.

* Not passing a Child Tax Credit, or something like it, seems to have REALLY stuck in the craw of the working class and underemployed lumpen. I thought it would have been the minimum wage thing (which did too, but it seems not nearly to the degree), so I'm a bit surprised. Perhaps someone on Trump's team knew what they were doing when it got included on his agenda.
