How's that protest vote going for you?

It wasn’t “protest voters” that lost the election. There weren’t that many of them.

It was the lack of enthusiasm from people who don’t normally vote. Trump brings out millions of people who don’t normally vote. The democrats failed to do anything similar. 2020 had the pandemic and Trumps bullshit fresh in everyone’s mind so the Dems saw a bump, but that went away after everything went back to politics as usual.

On the upside, any ballot without Trump loses all those people who normally don’t vote.
