Dem centrists are too lazy to try to influence their politicians to do the right thing. And they pretend the politician is powerless to change their stand. They can change their stand. You can apply pressure during an election. if you'd just try. But you all pretend you are powerless, and then call everyone trying to pressure harris shitty names.
It's even more insane that people claim this after public outcry forced Biden off the ticket.
We have literally seen that it works, you can actually demand more of your elected leaders! But don't tell that to the Blue MAGAts, or they'll shut you down because their favorite talking head told them to shut up and get in line.
Biden's internal polling showed him that he had NO path to victory. That's what forced him to step down.
People are already early voting. If you're goal is to ratchet up the protests to get a change from the Dems, it's too late.
Now all your doing is encouraging people to waste their vote in protest.
Or in other words, you're campaigning for Trump.
I was with you until you used that ridiculous term.
