Yeah it's never the fault of the party, it's all those stupid people exercizing their right to choose. Maybe if dems didn't put all their worth in being "the least worst option" and actually tried to be a good party this wouldn't have happened.
End of the day, Americans voted for a proven rapist, a convicted felon, and a white supremacist to the oval office over someone who isn't so yeah, stupid people exercising their right to vote are to blame. Enjoy your tariffs.
"My" tariffs? You think i am happy for this? You are part of those stupid americans maybe, incapable of understanding that not everyone that does not think like you is your enemy
I don't think you're the enemy, I simply think you're not very bright.
I don't know why you are considering them not bright here. Empirically, being the least worst option has barely worked with record turn out during an active pandemic. Aside from that, not being a convicted rapist is simple not enough to motivate people to the voting booths, so maybe the tactics need to change? I can argue what ought to be, but the simple reality is very clear, "Not Trump" isn't a winning strategy and we should try something else.
I don't know why your getting downvoted, evidence shows your right
My guess is that it's a bit reality shattering to contend with the fact that lying and cheating is plenty good enough to not only win, but win in a landslide. Harsh truths and all.
Lieing isnt agains the rules anywhere, except in court. Then its only illegal if you get caught or cant pay more lawyers.
Correct. My point was democrats are upset that we are not in the world we ought be in, where lying would make voters turn against you.
I’ll continue to deny claims that Kamala was “least worst”. She seemed like a pretty good option to me, and the only criticisms I’ve heard of her were that she was not quite perfect on every issue they cared about.
Considering voter turnout for the Democrats was abysmal compared to 2020, yes: it is the fault of those stupid people choosing to abstain from voting because good enough wasn't good enough.
If a campaign's job is to get people to turn out then the campaign failed.
the voters must do everything they can to prevent democrats from shooting themselves in the foot.
