    Why do so many people act like primaries don’t exist.

    Because this year they didn’t. 95% of votes haven’t been cast yet and everyone except the front-runners have dropped out already.

    The only way we don’t get a Biden v Trump rematch in 2024 is if a convention is outright hijacked or one/both of them drop dead of Old People Itis.

      Nobody else is going to fix what you dont like about the primaries for you, bro. Throwing your hands up and playing the victim because the odds are 99.99% against you only changes those odds to 100%.

        i love this. i’m going to use it every time someone tries to suppress voter turnout by telling me cornel west and jill stein can’t win.

          Complaining on lemmy is 1000x easier than knocking on doors and it accomplishes 1000x less.

            i’ve knocked doors. i don’t do that any more. i can’t face my neighbors after telling them to put someone in power who stabbed us in the back.
