Only a fellow Boomer like Maher would think anything makes Trump look cool. Even most of the people who voted for him don’t think that.

    You mean the “at least we’re not Republicans” approach? The problem with that is, they’d actually have to advocate for positive change. Things that benefit Americans. But that’s antithetical to liberalism, because it means being accountable to people rather than the wealthy ruling class.

    Remember when Biden told big donors “nothing will fundamentally change” and then nothing fundamentally changed? Yeah, literally everyone who isn’t a billionaire is sick of that.

      You don’t think Democrats advocated for any positive change?

      I can think of at least a half dozen major initiatives cemented by legislation, and more that couldn’t pass Republican controlled congresses.
