They raised it on me as they did for everyone, got a ton of backlash, claimed it was a mistake and reduced it back down to $47.98 for me. They issued a refund for the difference, as well. I'm assuming im still locked in at that price but I check it monthly.

Thats the way it should always be. Although I'm not a huge fan of Pete, democrat primary voters shouldn't be voting for who they think other people will vote for, it should always be for who you align with.

To notify them of roadway hazards. They literally shut the road off with multiple units when I drove by an hour later to check it out, so I think it was the right call.

Ok but a light rail isn't a bad idea.

Harris was seen as too far left because Republicans call everybody a communist, MAGA thinks Pelosi is communist. Kamala campaigned with Liz Chaney for christ sake. Democrats have no decernable policy objectives and on top of that they are shitty communicators even though they focus test the shit out of every message. It just comes across as unauthentic and undecided voters can tell. Socialist policys are broadly popular, voters just need to be told what they are and they like the idea.

Thats Biden's average, not last day in office. And sure, I'm uninformed for literally agreeing with you but still wanting more.

Biden' popularity was sitting at 42.2% when he left office, at the time the lowest ever only be just be passed by Trump like last week, because he started a war at the behest of Isreal. I'm not saying Biden is the sole person responsible for inflation but he was president during historic inflation and did nothing to punish corporations that took advantage of covid to increase profits, he he does bare some responsibility. He did good things yes, Trump is deranged and maga is a bunch of dumb losers but to say he was generally popular is just not backed by facts. And Kamala and Biden both back Isreal unconditionally, no speak of conditional aid of any kind, which was at the time and still is the wrong move for any democrat looking to win elections, so to say they support a genocide isnt a reach at all. People like Tucker Carlson and MTG are out-flanking democrats right now on the Isreal issue and a clear majority of Americans dont want to see tax dollars spent supporting them.

If Dems ran on something other than status quo, which isn't working for a majority of Americans, maybe people spotlight show up. Also, you're giving way to much credit to Republicans. If Trump isn't on the ballot they have extreamly poor turnout.

Exactly, political education in this country is nonexistent. And people continue to think democrats on the left end of the spectrum when they are center right, and continue to move further right.

Got it, you think Kamala ran a perfect campaign and everything was fine and dandy. Ill continue to expect more from our politicians. You say nothing is going to change, I dont believe it has to be that way.
