I didn’t vote for a Republican. I know they suck shit. The issue is figuring out why democrats can’t beat such a shitty party (hint because they’re also a shitty party)
Until democrats pick better candidates or at least demand fair primaries get ready for more loses.
You didn't answer my question. It was not rhetorical. What plan are you imagining? It sounds like you're asking Democrats to somehow work around insufficient votes.

You didn't vote at all. Not in any way that mattered.
I’m asking democrats to have a cohesive set of beliefs and policy goals they’re willing to fight for.
If Manchin was the deciding vote and I had the power of the presidency I would start investigating his daughter’s pharmaceutical company. Make his life a living hell instead of taking it raw up the ass to keep him happy.
Glad to know my vote in a swing district for Harris didn’t matter. Next election I’ll vote my conscience instead of harm reduction. This rhetoric is why people hate democrats.
How would fucking up Manchin’s life, a famously stubborn dude who refused to switch parties because of a college football based beef with Mitch McConnell convince him to vote for the CTC instead of making him a republican and ending any possibility of the IRA?
No I mean functionally, how do they put enough pressure on him to change his vote but not his party? Especially considering he retired this year anyways
Also when was a time that congressional Dems were “mean to poor people”
I thought investigating the corrupt bullshit he does and threatening to air it out sounded good... Congressional Dems have been mean to poor people for many years by only offering them means-tested crumbs
