In a democracy giving people what they chose is good leadership.

Absolutely false. People are fucking morons that do not know what they need. People are good at identifying the problems that face them, experts are good at finding solutions. Good leadership in a democracy is finding experts and supporting them to find solutions for the problems constituents face.

Okay so you're unironically arguing against actual democracy and I don't feel the need to say anything other than that to you.

We don't live in a democracy and good leadership is not telling your whole team that they can't get fucked because half of them made a bad decision.

Biden won the 2020 primaries by a huge margin, Trump won his primary by an even bigger margin, and Biden lost to Trump in the 2024 general WITH POPULAR VOTE.

Thats democracy. People chose this.

77 Million Trump voters who showed up and 6.6 Million DNC voters who stayed home, they all chose this.

Of course, good managers pick sides and help push the other one off a cliff.
