And then you go on to cite the 2016 election.
Are you doing a bit? Do you not recall the pied-piper strategy the Dems tried? You keep referring to "successful" examples, but they're all republicans lol.

I thought you were the one who said the Democratic and Republican platforms are the same. Now you're noticing that the examples of winning with scaremongering are all Republican wins. Are you doing a bit?

??? Their platforms are the same, but the republicans actually want the platform enacted. Saying "vote for me or you'll get the republican" doesn't work when you have the same policy. Saying "vote for me or you'll get the democrat" works for the republican, because republican voters think democrats are demons wearing skin suits.
What is it with you people and pretending you don't understand basic textual communication? Do you think your sad attempts at gotchas aren't noticed? Go back to Reddit and argue with a bot
