I know. It’s exhausting. Especially when you yourself want that team to win rather than the other team win.
People seem to treat the voters like “the players”. The voters are the fans in this analogy. If the stadium is empty it’s not helpful to keep screaming about the team losing because they aren’t being cheered for enough. “The players” are the people that actually have power to make political change. We aren’t a direct democracy. If the players aren’t “scoring” and don’t even try to “swing” the fans stop showing up.
Hell, the Democrats are essentially playing like the 1919 white sox. That’s an old analogy. But it’s fitting.
