This same shit happened in 2016, the left bubble on a certain forum was all but certain Hilary had it in the bag. No one wanted to believe an orange stained asshole could win, then he did. Cue much gnashing of teeth and hair pulling and oaths that people would not live in a bubble anymore. Yet, here we are four years later and we're back in the same position. Despite 2016, we went back to Nate Silver and poll number worship, large attention to celebrity endorsements, shouting down dissenting voices on the left, and calls for full socialist policies otherwise you're a centrist, corporate traitor.
Yet, despite EVERYTHING Trump has done he would've cake walked to victory if not for COVID-19. And hell, he still might win by the end of the day. What's worse, the putrid fuck actually made gains with every non-white voting bloc. So, is it time to burst the bubble and look inward again at some hard facts? Facts like this country is FAR more conservative (and racist) than you'd like to think.
Or do we need to double down?
