You'd think they would understand something about optics

It seems to work enough that their partisans don't really question their leadership. Like it looks farcical to us, but idk how libs perceive it.

The goal is not to inspire or even get voots the goal is to induce despair

I think they really are this out of touch. Their only interaction with protesters was the 'riots' on TV and the guy kneeling on the football field.
