    Yeah, the presidential election is a circus and only a performer can be an effective candidate. Ever since 2016, the DNC just runs these duds who focus more on extending an olive branch to the GOP than championing solutions to anything voters actually care about, no matter how realistic. Whether the solutions can actually be achieved is irrelevant; what matters is that you’re willing to shoot for the moon on important issues and not weaken your position before you’ve even started negotiating. Without that, how can you possibly expect voters (particularly, typical low-information voters) to show up for you?

    Honestly, Tim Walz would have been a better presidential candidate. At least he has a personality.

      I assume, and many others will, that you’re a millennial lawyer. You should change your name if you want to be taken seriously as a critic of the system. You ARE the system, just in a low tier role.
