Chicks, amirite fellas?
You and everyone that thinks like you is responsible for Trump winning. Congratulations MAGAt.
You and people like you, yes.
Is my policy shit? No, it’s the voters who are wrong.
Yes. Let's keep absolving voters for the most obvious voting blunder in American history.
Let's keep absolving voters for going with the twice impeached convicted felon and adjudicated rapist with one failed presidency under his belt instead of the highly educated non-criminal but admittedly milquetoast alternative.
Voters don't have any responsibility, right?
Can you show me with quotes when I said the voters don’t have any responsibility?
I just said that the DNC has a shit conservative platform. That’s blaming the DNC, not voters.
At some point, if you choose the fascist pedo felon over literally anything, including Bush term 4, its on you
I mean Harris' policy did explicitly address most of the concerns everyday Americans have but the overwhelming majority of them, including apparently you, don't have any idea what her actual policies were, they just repeat what fox news told them to think.
Congrats on being on the extreme minority that thinks killing and raping children is morally justified.
Congratulations on voting for Trump, by putting yourself on a moralistic high horse.
I voted for Harris, I'm not campaigning for her literally years after the election though like you are, only a literal pedophile would do that.
This isn't the flex you think it is. You think you're saying how much smarter you are to not be tricked but what you are really saying is your leaders can't win without help from the people you despise.
I'm not flexing. I'm saying most Americans are incredibly stupid. I'm saying a full third of us are outright bigot fascists that actively want to say slurs in public and hate crime minorities. I'm saying another full third of us (you're in this group) are too stupid or self absorbed to acknowledge that third party and non voters directly contribute to republicans getting elected. Of the remaining third, most don't vote in Dem primaries so we have no progressive condition. I'm saying that the American Federal government is largely representative of the average American that is too stupid or mean to just vote in their own best interest (which yes for my entire life has meant explicitly voting democrat in every election). You are the American that has earned and deserves Trump. Reevaluate your priorities.
Whats a "D next to a candidates name even mean anymore? Besides limping a system along which doesnt care about any of my issues and sends my taxes to a nazi theocratic foreign country to shoot little starving kids in the head for sport. We need to keep all this going in its current form you are saying, cant allow it to change or fall apart or we're ...bad voters?
Well I'll be sure to hustle to the polls and make sure I cast my vote for all the "D" branded genociders. Blue no matter who right. Because that will get this system working for me for a change, right? That will get the bribe-taking DNC centrists who have been utterly ignoring the voters to care about their voters again? if we just shut up, sit down, demand nothing, and do what we're told?
edit: Yeah thats right, downvote and run away. Theres at least a shred of honesty in your lack of response, if not your original posting.
You're either an idiot or an accelerationist and either way don't deserve to be taken seriously.
I voted for Harris, try again. I am at least willing to recognize where her campaign could have done better, because like you, I recognize we need those voters who went 3rd party (or stayed at home) in order to win. Unlike you, I hold leadership accountable for failing to inspire an electorate large enough to win.
She did, Biden did too - that inflation wave after covid was inevitable after reopening from covid, and then they got it under control but for some reason everyone ignored that and voted for trump saying "lower prices on day one"
Another one kamala had no platform besides not trump -- also not true she talked about all her policies she has the website with like a thousand different policies -- but nobody wanted to see that the media just made the election about trump.
At the end of the day, trump is the president we deserve as a people, we love wrestling and crypto and gambling more than we love affordable housing and healthcare. Maybe not you specifically, and me certainly not, but the average american, that's what they want. this whitehouse ufc event is gonna do bigger numbers than any Mayweather fight ever. That's what the people chose.
"I have no empathy..no empathy."
"No you're only getting 600 because we decided to include the last payments which ads up to $1,200 so we're keeping our promise technically."
That's pretty much what people remember about Biden's concern for their financial woes.
Trump literally ran without a platform both times. The RNC basically said, "Whatever he wants is our platform." So it's understandable why Dems thought Kamala could get away without talking about the party's platform. They were trying to match the vibes-based campaign model.
She talked about her platform a lot, if the media only highlighted a 15 second paragraph about trump, that's not on her. That's on the media and the people being obsessed with trump, positively or negatively.
It's ironic that you can't resist using misogynistic language even as you deny misogyny was a factor.
Imagine someone denying race was a factor while calling her the nword.
IIRC she had outlined some policies in her platform that would have helped with that.
Because anyone paying attention knows that Democrats are always better for our economy. So anyone bitching about the cost of living had a really easy decision to make in 2024.
Democrats may be better for traditional markers of the economy, but 50 years of neoliberalism from both parties has resulted in a K-shaped economy. One that is great if you already have wealth (which is what things like GDP and inflation tell you), but one that is terrible and getting worse if you are a regular person. Neither party has done anything to actually fix the systemic issues that caused this, so when status-quo Dems claim to be better for working people, we can all see that for the lie it is.
Nope. You’re wrong.
There’s alot of factors that led to where we are now.
It’s not simple at all actually.
