          Maybe because Democrats get elected after Republicans mess up the economy, they want to enable their horrid polices as an attempt at an easy win.

          Now that makes sense honestly. They can’t win with boring candidates in stable-ish times. John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris all flopped because they didn’t offer much in times of stability.

          So why not enable more genocide, allow the few who have homes to lose them, ramp up racism and xenophobia, it makes “I will maybe roll some of these back” look good like it did in 2020.
