Watching the Democrats flub the 2024 elections in almlst the exact same ways as they did in 2016 was... Kind of bizarre.
Why?
The people in 2016 were the same people in 2020, and the same ones in 2024.

Those same people will still rally behind a shitty neoliberals candidate in 2028 again, but for the first time in decades the DNC won't pick a candidate, voters will in the primary and the DNC will support whoever wins.
