What’s more, this person said there aren’t regrets over Biden leaving the race. This person said they could’ve been convinced before the switch at the top of the ticket that Biden was better positioned to win Pennsylvania but since seeing the explosion of Democratic enthusiasm they said: “I think we’d all agree it has been a net positive.”
It’s concerning that so many people still don’t understand why voters didn’t want Biden, or even that voters didn’t want Biden.
It’s not just enough to vote D every four years, the only political party large enough to fight facisism, is completely out of touch with it’s voters…
So like…
Maybe we should replace them with people who know what the fuck they’re doing?
Maybe start putting some sociologists in charge rather than who has the best connection to donors and ignoring literally everything else?
And private funding (and specifically, undisclosed funding) of any candidate should be extremely illegal. But the Supreme Court (and the ACLU, incredibly) is behind Citizens United, so that’s not changing for the foreseeable future.
The ACLU is behind it because there are unintended consequences to getting rid of it.
For example, Florida could pass a law that bans pro-choice advertising from women’s rights groups while still allowing ads from anti-abortion groups.
The only reason they can’t do that today is that pro-choice organizations have First Amendment rights.
There is a misconception that without CU corporations wouldn’t influence elections. But actually without it, politicians could choose which corporations are, or are not, allowed to influence elections.

Publicly funded elections are so needed.
