i think you are replying to the wrong comment? i didn't mention "woke". i don't go near twitter; impossible to read. the point i was making is that demonizing the centrists who hadn't already made up their mind, was batshit stupid. yeah, we got to know kamala pretty well - peace, love, hatred, rage, change, no-change - a politician.

> people are still feeling the ... effects of the economy > they felt that and decided they wanted change.

this i agree with, except that effects are "residual". it's not improving for most people on the bottom 1/2. it's brutal out here.

> Americans still gave the Democrats the popular vote

now this is widely reported that as not true [1], CNN showing ~51.2%, which would be the best in 20 years [2].

that was a mistype. I meant to say the residual effects of COVID on the economy.

I think you misunderstood; I meant that the Democrats won the popular vote in 2020 and 2016.
