Yes, it they still don’t want the status quo, so they would not have been happy either way. The point is that the party proposing a change can scoop up votes of those wishing for change, which is most people.
Biden didn’t win on no change. He won on change from trumps presidency. Change wins. Proposals win. Stability is good, but if people don’t feel stability, like with runaway inflation, or a recent global pandemic, or a recent trump presidency, then saying things are stable and good is not a winner. They are not.

Shouldn’t we blame voters for not looking at what change is being proposed?
Oh wait, many of them were being told she’s worse than Trump, going to start the next world war, jail white men, or other such nonsense on social media or podcasts.
There is enough blame to go around. However, voters as a bloc is a more nebulous concept than a voter or party.
People voting is an essential part of democracy. If people don’t understand it, if they failed to understand what was at stake, or if they undertood it but still didn’t vote against him then they’re fucking morons.
We can talk about mistakes of DNC, Biden, Harris, Pelosi etc for all eternity but that doesn’t change the fact that the American voters are morons.
All of that’s true, but not how the general voting population works. We have to live in the world that exists, not the one where everyone is paying as much attention as they should.
Alternatively, this should be massive fucking sign that the general voting populace is so desperate for any change that they’d go for horrible changes rather than perpetuating the status quo.
