    I saw a wave of red hats

    That’s because you’re in a cult, Tim. I know exactly zero people that are hard-core Biden supporters. Those of us that voted for him picked the “not Trump” option. And, unfortunately, it looks like I’ll have to pick that option again.

      I voted for Sanders in the primary (twice). But nobody should compare Biden with Sanders, we should compare Biden with other presidents who were able to get elected and achieve progress. Biden was the best president of the past 50 years. If you disagree, name a president who was better. If you are looking for a hard-core Biden supporter, I am raising my hand as an extremely proud one.

        Sanders was not able to get elected due to the Democratic party preferring to lose rather than put forward an honest to god progressive.

          Except that they won. So it had nothing to do with “preferring to lose”. Primary voters probably thought Sanders would lose, but I do not agree.
