    Voter turnout is always highest for presidential elections, and the last two have had the highest in decades. Yet that is still in the low 60’s. Any ideas for how to increase turnout?

                I think ypu are falling for the trap of blaming the other victims. No matter how people voted, the person doing the evil is still who needs to be blamed. Well him, and the system that let him get there in the first place. Your anger is justified, but directing it at people you have never met, and most of whichs vote made no difference (lot of blue state voters didn’t vote, but the state still went blue) is only going to cause more people to be disillusioned and not vote.

            We had all that under Biden too, and Kamala promised to do what Trump had been doing, but more competently.

                Do you not remember the Migrant overflow facilities they concentrated immigrants in under Biden, in greater numbers? Oh right, you went back to brunch once a D was doing the same shit we all agreed was bad when Trump was doing it.
