Exactly, I am not saying the democratic party was great at it. My point is the protests were still allowed to happen though as in my mind arrests essentially still allowed protests to occur, deportations though are a different matter. You ask any proper activist about how many times they have been arrested for protesting, they typically wear it like a badge of honour. Deportation though is another matter. So I still stand firm that there would have been a greater chance for a better outcome under a Democratic administration.

Right, I don't disagree, my point is that the Democratic Party intentionally threw away that chance

Yeah for sure, I won’t deny that. My interest though in my initial comment was more intrigued about the voters themselves and their understanding on why they with held their vote. Not alot of self reflection being done tbh.
