“What’s going to happen in this next election? I’m terrified about what could possibly happen, because our leaders matter. Who we select, who speaks for us, who holds that bully pulpit, it affects us in ways sometimes I think people take for granted,” Obama told Jay Shetty on his podcast “On Purpose.”
“The fact that people think that government — ‘eh, does it really even do anything?’ — and I’m like ‘Oh my God, does government do everything for us, and we cannot take this democracy for granted.’ And I worry sometimes that we do. Those are the things that keep me up,” she said.
“The bars are different for people in life. That I’ve learned,” she said.
Without naming Trump, she continued: “Other people can be indicted a bunch of times and still run for office. Black men can’t. You just learn to be good. And in the end, you benefit from that extra resilience.”
It seems like most Americans are gonna vote for trump and he might win. Democrat voters have to blame their side if trump wins. They’ve run such a dog shit pr campaign. Biden has done good on the policy front but you’d never know because the media doesn’t cover it and the right-wing media only covers his mistakes.
Most Americans didn’t vote for Trump in the previous two elections.
The problem is the electoral college. We have dipshits, but not enough of them will vote for Trump for him to win the popular vote.
This is true every time. Not disagreeing with you. When Dems win nationally it’s usually in spite of all the ways they tried to fuck it up.
Yeah it wasn’t even close in the end. They even lost fucking Arizona and Georgia I never thought I’d see the day…
I don’t understand why you think that. The last election wasn’t even close and Trump had the post office in shambles.
