You'd think they would understand something about optics

It seems to work enough that their partisans don't really question their leadership. Like it looks farcical to us, but idk how libs perceive it.

The goal is not to inspire or even get voots the goal is to induce despair

I think they really are this out of touch. Their only interaction with protesters was the 'riots' on TV and the guy kneeling on the football field.

Honestly easier for my mind to accomodate. I keep a brick on my desk for when I need to remind myself that Libs actually believe the stupid shit the Dem leadership says. A few good smacks re-adjusts my worldview the necessary degree.
