Get a Grip, Democrats. You Can Still Win This. Biden's not far behind, the economic conditions remain excellent, and a vile assassination attempt in July doesn't determine November's outcome.
Voter apathy in the Democratic Party is what will kill it. There are far more liberals than there are conservatives, but about half of liberals just don’t vote. It’s ridiculous and incomprehensible.
It’s completely comprehensible. Since 2000, the impression has been that if you’re not in a swing state, your vote doesn’t matter. This impression, whether factual or not, has been helped along by candidates and the media. Factor in that we have two conservative parties, one that is dashing towards fascism, and the other sometimes wears a rainbow sticker while casually strolling towards fascism, and it’s completely understandable why many on the left don’t vote. It’s not a helpful mentality, but depression rarely is helpful.

Is it apathy or acquiescence?
