Democratic strategists keep refusing to learn the lesson that presidential elections are about driving turnout. Centrist swing voters are a red herring and the way to win is to enthuse the base. Her positions failed to enthuse the base and so they were bad. It’s much easier for the right to enthuse the base because their base is morons who are going to project whatever they believe onto the candidate as long as they dog whistle enough.

Maybe you should call on the candidate to have less bad positions than try to call on voters to support them despite their bad positions. For some reason ‘she’s electable if you vote for her’ seems to keep being a losing strategy.

*woops misread the implication

Yes, its random lemmy posters that made Harris have a shit campaign that didn’t get out the vote. Vote for another centrist in the primary in 4 years whose main appeal is “I’m not Vance” and lets see how 2028 goes.

It’s either laugh or cry. Besides we’ve been here before, he (personally) is not more dangerous now than he was for his last term.

Looking forward to checking the results on my next break and seeing trump winning every swing state. I knew he would win, it is both the funniest and worst outcome, it was meant to be. We’re gonna watch his brain turn ever more thoroughly into goo for the next ~4 years and make even more insane headlines than last time.

*on my next break and I called it lol. Nothing called by AP yet but he’s up in MI, PA, GA, and WI. Strap in.

Under the outer walls that support the roof and/or additional stories there will be a sizeable footing that should go below the frost line. But inside the footing where the foundation is just supporting the first floor you only need a few inches of concrete.

Ah, so that’s why you’re surprised some people have a hard time supporting a candidate that wants to allow the genocide to continue.

Impossible for people to have a conscience, it must be some sort of psyop.

A truly black and white, good VS evil war is actually raging right now in Ukraine, yet these morons are silent on that one. I wonder why 🤔

Because we’re not arming the bad guys in that one genius. Russia is also a nuclear power and most people still don’t think MAD is a good idea if you’re suggesting we should be advocating for open warfare against russia.

I’ve found bits of plastic trash in almost all of the potting soil I’ve bought. I’m at the point where I think a heavily filtered hydroponic setup is one of the only ways to really minimize microplastics.
