How does this argument even make sense to someone with half a brain?
- sokoloff 2y agoAgree. Take the 50-ish million people who cast their vote to Harris/Walz and are eligible (over 35, natural-born, resident for more than 14 years) to be president. Either one of two things is true: 1. That was the most likely to win ticket possible and the DNC had zero-point-zero chance to win the election. 2. Among those 50 million people is another ticket and/or different platform & messaging that would have resulted in a win for the DNC. If #1 is true, the problem isn't with the electorate (other than they disagree with the DNC). If #2 is true, the problem also isn't with the electorate.

- elcritch 2y agoExactly, it’s essentially saying “the problem with democracy is the people”.
- jredwards 2y agoThe problem with democracy is that it's so easy for a demagogue to come to power by pitting the people against each other. The problem with OUR democracy is that this issue is supercharged by our inability to control the outsized influenced wielded by powerful/wealthy parties, foreign and domestic.
