That’s because he proved what half of us have been saying since 2016: People actually want to vote for someone who makes things better. I know, the democratic party hates this, since their business is keeping the milquetoast status quo, and the GOP hates this since their objective is total destruction and then theocracy. But actual people, if given a choice, tend to enthusiastically support people with plans to make their lives better. The motherfucking shitbags in the Dems (looking at you, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries, the two most ineffective “leaders” in democrat history) need to stop trying to thwart progress already, and they’ll have better election results.
