Their platform was weak.

They ran an old man with brain damage for most of the campaign.

His replacement spent two months of campaign time telling poverty wage workers to be joyful and didn't even put a platform on their website until a few weeks before the election. Watching that felt very tone deaf and condescending.

The other meme they repeated was how weird Trump and Vance are, as if they didn't already objectively know the voters don't care about that.

They didn't run a good campaign.

Well I'm glad we dodged having an old man with brain damage in the White House... ooh wait.

Fair point.

No matter who we elected we were getting a useful idiot for the rich, but that's partisanship for you.
