Don't care... he's done and his evils will be eclipsed by Trump by orders of magnitude.
But we saved Gaza by not voting for Kamala, right? ... right?
This kind of comment has been exceptionally helpful all election long. Maybe y'all can learn that you aren't entitled to votes you have to actually earn them 😘, or don't fuck if I care.
I voted for hilary, biden and kamala, but none of them were suited to meet this moment in american history.
This is a failure of the neoliberals and their democratic party, but neither of them actually give a shit since they just make money off fundraising against bad orangeman.
But go ahead and moan if it helps you cope with what's coming the next 4 years, you've earned that much.
Golly-gee, it must be something to do with Trump being the GOP nominee for President for them to do that.
You are so brave to be condescending on the Internet. The classic holier-than-thou “earn my vote” position is another loser mentality. If we apply that standard to both campaigns, we can clearly see there was one person trying to earn votes. And that person lost. I’d argue Kamala should have been tougher and demanded votes.
Did you even read that I said I voted for all of them? I never withheld my vote, but they certainly didn't earn it either.
I'm not being holier than thou, I'm offering valuable feedback.
From my perspective the pro biden kamala folks have been condescending as f u c k .
If she wanted to demand votes she should have campaigned on a more attractive platform.
I understand your feedback and I apologize for my tone. I just cannot get on board with the idea a more progressive campaign would have garnered any more votes. The proof is in the pudding. New progressive challengers failed at taking down any Democrat stalwarts in their primaries. Even worse, progressive incumbents struggled to hold on. It’s important to call out that these problems in races existed months before Harris even entered the scene.
That is why I see the anger at Harris as misplaced. If more progressive policies were the true desire of voters, it would have shown in the primaries just like in 2018 and 2020. The winds were out of the sails.
