Decisiondesk
sorry i dont understand (after after googling)
everyone blames inflation on the incumbent + kamala did a shit job at galvanizing leftists by not denouncing biden’s gaza policies
the party currently in power
Incumbents are advantaged to win every election but the presidential one to my knowledge
the party switches every 4 years? didnt obama win 2 in a row?
Do we like trump here or no because I have to say from what I have seen the guy does not seem very nice
Yeah this forum loves trump, get your maga hats
Summary
no lol we hate trump
it doesn’t have to switch. incumbent is just whoever won last time, you can win twice in a row.
we are the most pro trump guys ever
There are a lot of factors here. They spend a lot of time drumming up fear on culture war issues like immigration, and just making up lies about them. The Haitian immigrant stuff in Ohio was made up. Illegal immigrants nationwide have a lower rate of criminality per capita than citizens. And yet, they say Haitians are eating pets and there’s a wave of “immigrant” crime. This kind of shit animates a contingent of white voters, primarily rural, that see things be deprioritized (like Christianity) and see their areas because less and less white. They create a boogie man to explain the actual problems people face by pinning it on the marginalized and otherwise poor. It doesn’t help when Democrats just start conceding the framing on the issue, and be like “yeah, immigration is a problem, but…” instead of trying to counter it by saying they’re demonizing minorities to fear monger. It makes me so fucking mad.
Fucking shifting to the right is a cornerstone of lib strategy for no fucking reason. I’ve never seen evidence that it actually works. When Dems win, particularly nationally, it’s when they get their fucking base excited by policies they actually care about. Obama ran one of the most progressive presidential campaigns in recent US history, and he crushed. Yes, the country was coming off of 8 years of Bush and in a recession, but that’s at least evidence that being progressive does not hurt you electorally. Members of the progressive caucus usually do really well in elections unless the party itself doesn’t support them and primaries them (which happens).
Honestly it’s a minefield to even ask I was worried I would blow up and die immediately
to elaborate uh
convicted felon, insurrectionist, rabidly racist, to name a few reasons why he is bad
Like I said, I’m british, I know the PM’s we have are absolute twats and useless I mean like I said one of them lasted less time than a store-bought lettuce took to expire and fucked our economy while they were at it
so in UK, labor is current incumbents. Right now, democrats are incumbent
Also convicted rapist and pathological liar.
But I know nothing about america
