“The issue is not that deliverism failed. It is that Democrats convinced themselves that they had delivered, without listening to the voters telling them they had not.”
The issue is Dems have no narrative.
Trump’s is: You are suffering and it’s bc of immigrants, trans people and Democrats

one thing that i love about First Reformed is that it’s a movie that asks crushing questions at the precipice of ruin, and then it tells us how we can keep going
feeling like today is a good day to rewatch First Reformed. a movie about the inevitable destruction brought on by climate change. despite being very cynical I also find the ending to be very cathartic and oddly hopeful. we need not suffer because of the sins of others.
If I hear one more person talk about disaffected young white men. Get affected bitch. Go for a walk, call ur mom. You’re sad and now I can’t get an abortion? grow up
