They're both right. If you didn't vote for Harris, you were incredibly misguided. But it's not my job to get Harris elected, it's the DNC's.

They will stick with "I'm not Trump!" even when it's not Trump running

It's amazing how we get convinced to fight each other. The reason the orange felon got elected is that people voted for him. They are at fault that he got elected. Stop bickering amongst each other and call out those who would incite you to do so!

So if after his term ends Trump doesn't remain in power, will you just shoot yourself? Or how do you plan to prevent people from having to listen to your half-assed doomer opinions?

Yeah, he's a fucking idiot and he never should've won. Says a lot about the democratic party that they got beaten by a fucking idiot.

Maybe in the future own your mistakes instead of fearmongering, idk, just a thought.

Or, it says a lot about the intentions of each and every person that either voted for him, or didn’t vote.

“It’s Alice’s fault for not reminding Bob to pay the heating bill”. And I do mean reminding - as in an extremely obvious thing.

"I can't just run on not being the other guy? I actually have to articulate a platform and get people to like me???"

Oh we're not even waiting until 2028 to start up the infighting again. How fun. At least we'll have something to discuss while in line for the showers.

Voter turnout was the second highest since women got the right to vote. Voters came out and narrowly voted for Trump in seven key states. Many didn't like him, but didn't believe that the Dems actually cared about their issues. And while Trump is crass and wish he were nicer, at least life during his presidency wasn't bad for them.

This was the most important election in our life time and the best the Democrats could do was pick the next person in line.

Voter Turnout was high, and yet there were less votes cast overall than in 2016 or 2020. I have to call shenanigans, why are 20 million votes unaccounted for?
