Conventional political wisdom says that voters will vote for the candidate that most closely represents their views. So all you gotta do is be a little to the left of the republicans.
in this election, apparently millions of democrats chose not to vote.
they were concerned about issues such as Gaza. So they chose not to vote, helping the guy who is likely gonna bulldoze Palestine. They were concerned about inflation so they chose not to vote, helping the inflationary tariff guy. Concerned not enough progress on student debt relief. And so on.
meanwhile trump is out being bananas and all the republicans dutifully line up and vote for him.
What is up here? Why do democrats got to work hard to motivate and excite voters with their policies, and Mr. Crazypants sprouts nonsense and his voters are happy?
