(25,464 posts)There will be constant negativity about the Democratic Party until then. Same drip drip drip. Republicans have occasional kind of big scandals that nobody pays attention to and Democrats get constant negativity.
Anti-Democratic propaganda aimed at the Right: inflation, bad economy, supply chain, government overreach, socialism, crime, the usual culture wars, some new immigration thing, conspiracy theories.
Aimed at the Left: imaginary promises broken, like student debt (BUT HE PROMISED is the new BUT HER EMAILS -- everyone will become seven years old and cry and say they hate Uncle Biden), they'll say that Democrats have full control of government and LOOK THEY DO NOTHING BOTH SIDES (requires inability to understand a 50-50 senate and how government works (I HATE UNCLE BIDEN)), the usual Democrats-aren't-progressive-because-they're-corrupt-elites bullshit. It's ironic that student debt has become a big thing because of attacks on Democrats for being over-educated out-of-touch elites who ignore the working class.
The U.S. will go limping along as usual. A large sized country with too many people who pay absolutely no attention and have no common sense.
