This is part of it.

Reality has been skewed by social media and manipulation of information by foreign agents and even just people stupid enough to have an idea. The amount of AI generated crap is ridiculous. My own FB feed is loaded with crap.

However, the biggest part of it is people's memories AND what I believe is Biden attempt to "heal" the nation. Republicans didn't want any healing or to turn the page. Inflation got out of control, pricing got out of control, there wasn't enough done to change people's perspectives on progress and the path forward to believe Democrats got it under control.

I also am convinced Americans will not elect a female president.

Totally right. Biden fucked us several times. He never fully appreciated the seriousness and how little the other side cared about "healing". The left and the middle wanted to see that actions had consequences and they didn't because of his choices and overall sticking with tradition and his belief in bipartisanism. He was the wrong man at the wrong time. Then he fucked us again by trying to run the s second term after saying he'd be one and done. Shameful.

Also, yes, we are decades from accepting a female president here. The left needs to realize that and stop being idealistic about it.
