Nope, every damn swing state, every Midwest State, every damn state even the blue ones that had Democrats and progressives sitting out showed me that America is A-fucking-okay with racism and misogyny.
Sorry but the nation isn't better than this.
Yep. But try to tell them theyre at fault at least partially and they'll just screech about Democrats for not being mind readers.
Sure but let's not down play how fucking god awful Democratic leadership is too.
I mean honestly, the people told them, "Hey, we're fucking idiots and we don't understand how the economy works and we have the memory of a goldfish and forgot that Trump tanked the economy to begin with due to a completely botched COVID response but fuck you egg prices are high and I don't understand bird flu"
And not a single leader went and said "Hey maybe we should listen to the common worker, even if they're a little slow, and campaign hard on that since we have actual solutions!"
Sigh, just so much stupidity everywhere but still a pox on all of those non-voters for condoning all of this racist shit in the end.
Dude Trump didn't win because more people voted for him he got the exact same amount of votes every time he ran.
Trump won this time because people didn't vote for Kamala.
