Spain, Denmark, Finland, Portugal and Germany have shown gains or wins for the left. Where was the left wiped out aside from the UK?Left got wiped everywhere else in Europe this year (and last tbh)
Yep. That's it.

Obviously not Europe, but Labour was crushed in Australia this year as well.Spain, Denmark, Finland, Portugal and Germany have shown gains or wins for the left. Where was the left wiped out aside from the UK?
I actually meant the german greens, who got a really positive result in the EU elections and are now polling at above 20%. As much as i dislike SPD, they have also chosen a new leader from the left wing of the party.SPD is a shadow of its former self and the less we say about the Soc Dems in Denmark the better.
Portugal is a rare bright spot for sure though, forgot about them.
How is this bafoon going to inspire millennial and gen z voters to show up to vote? The Hilary "I'm not Trump" strategy isn't enough, this man has no real vision on how to improve the country. He's going to be hated by the left and the right.
Joe was pretty silent on what caused the 2016 election loss over here I wonder what the difference was? It would be pure stupidity to go after racists whites again after 4 years of having Trump in office.
If anything now is the perfect time to build up a new movement instead of going back to the same 2016 rhetoric that caused us to end here in the first place.
Yup, the "left" of moderate dems have good ideas that will scare the shit out of the average voter because the "how will it get done" can go wrong or is unknown. Can't blame Biden for pouncing.He's right. Probably doesn't need to say it, but he's right.
We're not going to tear down the entire economic system and rebuild it anytime soon. Doesn't matter how much Twitter wants it. Doesn't matter how much I want it.
I don't really like him but he is not wrong.
If you looked at data outside of the social media/era bubble yesterdays results were coming.
When boris johnson is more trusted on the healthcare services than corbyn it is clearly a failure.
Fuck you, Biden.
That's not what happened here. Apathy is what happened.
He's not celebrating shit. He's 100% right. How did Boris Johnson win then?
You're not going to win the Senate with a "new movement" and telling everyone who voted for Trump to fuck off. You've got to get some of those Obama --> Trump voters back and turn out progressives/left-leaning folks who stayed home/voted 3rd party last time.
psst, you might want to edit out that one...
yes, you are right.He's not celebrating shit. He's 100% right. How did Boris Johnson win then?
Labour didn't win the 2017 election.This is a fucking stupid take.
Labour won the 2017 election in a landslide with the same radical policies, with the same unpopular leader.

You sure as hell aren't going to get progressives or the Left go get out with Biden acting like this. I can already hear my friends who hel their noses and voted for Hillary outright saying "fuck this" and staying home this time.
No one is being told to fuck off unless you're a person who already has a problem with some policies that would improve minorities lives.You're not going to win the Senate with a "new movement" and telling everyone who voted for Trump to fuck off. You've got to get some of those Obama --> Trump voters back and turn out progressives/left-leaning folks who stayed home/voted 3rd party last time.
if they do that... having lived in trumps america; then america deserves another 4 years of trump.
Comments like this show that a Biden presidency is going to have long term consequences. He's sure as shit not gonna do anything progressive and might even uphold some of Trump's policies because "we can't alienate the right wing!", which leads into left wingers being pissed off at Biden and the 2024 republican campaign being "Biden was incompetent and didn't get anything done!"

This is exactly it. Republicans have free reign to push the political landscape far to the right for decades, then we have politicians like Biden telling us why we should always cede ground and never expect anything better. Again, fuck Biden.
This is a fucking stupid take.
