    He did get far. Millions of people voted for him, he won many districts, and then lost the primaries due to the fact that millions more people voted for Hillary and for Biden.

            We have Trump because about 8 million DNC voters stayed home. More people showed up for Biden than Kamala.

            Likewise if we want to remove Republicans then removing Democrats only harms us. We need to remove Republicans by voting independents and democrats into their districts.

              So what does that say? Even with a demon like Trump as opposition the establishment democrats couldn’t motivate their own base to vote. Obviously we want to vote against republicans. But the establishment was and is doing a horrible job of making that happen.
