Big “Don’t blame me, I voted for Kodos!” energy.
It really sucks that modern center-left parties position themselves as "well, there's worse"
Well, there is.
It's the folks we made apathetic's fault! Now watch us run on trump 1 policies to trinagulate the conservative vote again. We'll even have Steve Bannon on stage this time! You have to vote for us. Don't you dare despair!
