I might be wrong about this about I suspect that not only did support for Israel hurt them, the whole "kamala is for they/them" thing might have done a lot of damage and its quite possible the storm revealing the latter would kick up might be the main thing they fear.

Why?

Republicans for one. Theyd never let it through both chambers. Then there's the dems in name only like fetterman that'll flip their vote. Just off the top of my head

The healthcare plan the US has now was inspired by a Republican healthcare plan, what is holding this back are self-defeatist "democrats" who believe fighting is "hopeless" for universal healthcare.

Nope, we can do this, healthcare is probably the most uniting and popular issue that people face in their lives.

Can you explain to me why some people like to both call those that voted for Kamala as being defeatist while at the same time refusing to vote for a candidate that is not 100% perfect but miles better than the opposition?

Genuinely curious.

I too like to day dream

Then get out of the way of the rest of us making it happen and stop spouting cynical nonsense that only serves to depress the desire of people to demand a better future.

If I'm stopping you, you need to try a little harder than that.
