There are some bad takes here. Everybody’s been quick to jump on the polls being terrible and failing to look at this race in the context of the terrible polls. Everyone’s looking at this is some massive under performance by Joe Biden, but what if this was actually the state of the race this whole time and the data we were using to contextualize the race was all wrong? The party needs new faces, but it’s also abundantly clear that these new faces are not the AOC crowd and their toxic woke politics that so many posters here are likely pining for. This is not about ideology! Anyone who says so hasn’t been paying attention. This is style and personality. Substance is irrelevant. All the debate over that pointless DNC platform was for nothing because it doesn’t mean anything to anybody except the woke online crowd. Hell, the Dems should ditch a platform altogether and run on saying things people want to here but they don’t really mean.
Anyone who thinks this is wrong and bad.
