No, we really don't. We have to blame the people voting for trump or being apathetic about not voting. Throw in some Russian trolling, some Meta and X bullshit and we get a pretty shitty stew. Oh yeah, and the sexists and racists too.

The party’s job is to articulate a platform that energizes a large enough part of the population to vote them in.
