    Except we primary him and we either lose and get blamed for when he loses, or watch our progressive challenger lose because the rest of the country hates him.

    America isn’t nearly as progressive as us Internet weirdos think it is.

      Lots of pipe dreams on Lemmy, it’s kind of sad to see people so disconnected from reality.

        It’s not “pipe dreams” as much as it is “complete fantasy purposefully peddled by actual Russian misinformation actors”.

        Literally.

        Check out for instance @archcomrade [he/him] @midwest.social

        I even got banned there for pointing out how clearly he’s an actual Russian troll. He doesn’t even deny it and you can see he isn’t American, yet literally all he does is post “don’t vote biden”.

        This juicy guy isn’t much different

          I agree 100%, glad you see it too. Hopefully we can help spread awareness because the US government seems to be flat-footed.

          I find it helpful to tag shills so I can easily recognize them later.

            My cynicism says no.

            But I hope that’s just a mental thing, and I’ll continue to act as if I’m wrong about it.
