    Don’t forget ignored all indications that their campaign was losing voters and those same voters being very vocal about what needed to happen if they wanted to keep them

      The “I am speaking!” is so funny to me.
      “Hello, please stop doing genocide or I wont vote fo-” “I AM SPEAKING!” “Okay, I guess you don’t want my vote then.”
      Democrats crash and burn

        10% of primary voters vote “uncommitted” explicitly stating they won’t support a candidate backing the genpcide

        “Excuse me. IM SPEAKING. Now please welcome my friend Liz Cheyney.”

        Dems get 10% less votes.

        Really a fucking mystery.

        It’s not just the vote, people who have the energy to show up to protest have the energy to go out and knock on doors, raise funds, evangelize to friends and neighbors. The “well there’s no rational alternative so I guess I have no choice” folks will vote for you, but they won’t do anything to get anyone else’s vote.
