    Well if listening to “the base” voting for moderate politics loses elections maybe they should stop doing that lol

    “Stop having primaries” is an interesting take.

        Yes, for all intents and purposes there was no 2024 primary, or, rather, no serious 2024 primary challengers. But what you said was:

          Yeah. I mean, if they want to win elections. It’s clearly not working what they’re doing, they keep losing to racist clowns

            Okay, so what’s your proposed alternative, since “democracy” is no longer an option for picking candidates?

                Buy guns

                So now the people who are most willing to use guns to get their way choose the candidate. Great.

                  No, you’re not getting a choice in candidates. And the candidates are going to use the state to oppress you. Act accordingly.

                    … so, “if they want to win elections.”, they should… not have elections?
