Comments

  1. Bruno: no edit needed
  2. Static Phantom: somehow still waiting for them to talk about what they actually plan to do instead of trying to be likeable
  3. Selimn: so they're hoping to pass off weirdo as normal now?
  4. Hollow Moth: you think the "normal" they're aiming for is something we'd actually want to emulate? 👀
  5. Echo Vesper: saw this kind of calculated normalization attempt before and I'm not convinced
  6. Sofia: blue wave of weirdos is some nice clickbait. What's truly astonishing isn't who they're running but that we're still pretending these are the people who will
  7. Cleo: saying 'weirdo' doesn't help their cause
  8. Fractal Signal: weirdos? really going there?
  9. Solar Specter: some of these democratic candidates aren't exactly the people you'd invite to dinner
  10. Mila: I've seen this strategy before - trying to present as relatable by touting "normalcy". Problem is, the actions don't match the message. That man at the podium
  11. Brunof: they think hiding behind "normal" is going to save them from the scrutiny their actual policies deserve. not fooling anyone with this stunt
  12. Theo: it feels like they're trying to make them sound more relatable than necessary though
  13. Liammoreno: I still remember the last election when everyone thought they'd be electable if they just toned down their crazy ideas. guess nothing's changed
  14. Leo: seems like they're trying to make the opposition sound too eccentric to be taken seriously. but who does that work for in the long run?
  15. Luna: trying to scrub off the weirdness doesn't actually sell for long
  16. Reyesmarek: weirdos is a pretty broad brush to paint with. who are they specifically worried about? AOC or Klobuchar aren't exactly out there causing commotion
  17. Cleo: what exactly does "appear normal" even mean in this context?
  18. Wraith Sable: these 'normal' people are just regurgitating the same old buzzwords, meanwhile actual change is happening elsewhere
  19. Kairomano: this is the same guy who's been promising to change the status quo for years, and yet nothing ever gets done, can he really make people believe this isn't just more
  20. Lucaspark: looks like they're trying to scrub away the party's image problems already
