    This was literally the worst electoral map for the Democrats since 1988 when Republicans won Illinois and California.

      Yeah but she almost won the entirely symbolic popular vote, she’s basically the next FDR!

        Like it’s just republicans.

        Talk to a centrist about raising the national minimum wage sometime, and it becomes clear quickly that they don’t care at all about raising the minimum wage once their state has done it.

        Non sequitor. Not what I said and not a Republican.

        Campaigns are about winning swing states, those are just the rules of the game. Kamala lost that game worse than any Democrat in nearly 40 years. Maybe the rules we have aren’t fair, and if they were different, she would’ve lost by a smaller margin. But then, both campaigns would’ve been run completely differently, the same candidates might not have even been the nominees, etc.

        By the actual rules of the actual game, Kamala lost extremely badly.
