The left/liberal don’t listen to people’s grievances, and they don’t offer them solutions. Trump does.
It doesn’t matter if it’s all lies and hate, it’s simple better than the nothingburger that liberal/leftists are offering people.
Claiming Tariffs and exporting people will fix the economy is better than patronizing voters that the economy is just fine and they need to shut up. Which is what Harris and many liberals are doing.
And yet so many people on the left/liberal are totally blind to the total failure of this. They are totally deluded that their ‘values’ are self-justifying to the general population, and that if the population doesn’t agree, they are wrong. That isn’t how politics works. You can’t shame your voters into voting for you, you have to give them policies to vote for.

So it’s better to lie to you… Than to lie to you?
That’s not the Digg you think it is. Because he’s still lying that it works.
They mean better to the average voter. Even a bad idea sometimes sounds better than no idea. People are upset, they’re skipping Halloween this year. My elderly neighbor is afraid to turn on her furnace, another retired friend just told me her utilities were cut today. This has been getting worse and worse for years now. People want to hear zany, pie in the sky ideas, and they want stimulus checks. And they’re voting like it.
Bingo. Left/liberals really do not understand they have NOTHING to offer the average voter.
Why do you think Mandani is kicking ass in NYC? He is offering solutions to problems. He probably won’t even be able to delivery on the majority of it… but he is actually offering the average NYC voters something and listening to them and appealing to their concerns… and focusing on real practical issues that impact the majority… not social bullshit over miniorities.
I think this comment demonstrates exactly what TubularTittyFrog is saying.
Right wing media: I care about you! Vote for me and I’ll fix all your problems by kicking out immigrants and making everyone pay tariffs!
Left wing media (like lemmy): I don’t represent your interests, our democratic structure will prevent your views from being represented, nothing will ever get better. I am, at best, not as bad as the other guys.
Where’s the excitement and purpose and sense of possibility?
It’s not a virus.

I think it’s more like it’s better to be lied to than to be gaslit
People can’t vote for their favourite policies with first-past-the-post, just for the lesser evil.
