Mmk so still an assumption based on your view of voter's power on the system. Everything you are hinging this on is based on your perception of the situation.

I stepped on a crack on the sidewalk yesterday, then my friend called me.

Obviously the crack caused them to think of me.

The entire concept behind representative democracy is that voters influence their representatives. What I'm getting from you is that you don't actually believe that America is a democracy or that representatives actually represent voters.

I guess I don't totally disagree. I just think that even if Biden might not be worried about electability, he must be worried about his regime's legitimacy. The last thing he wants is a repeat of the BLM uprisings.

Still not hearing an alternative explaination from you btw
