Still butt hurt eh? Next time get a candidate who is actually supported by the base. Makes it easy to win.
The fact that genocide is a bar you consider a nice to have says more anout you than the people who withheld their vote because she couldnt commit to upholding one specific law we already have in the books. Probably the easiest thing in the world for a president to do.
You fuckers cant even fall back on rhe jew vote excuse anymore after nyc mayor prinary.
Still think the important issue is who's "butthurt" eh? That's why the country is doomed. The problem with finding a liberal candidate supported by the base is that memes can't run for President. Just go back to scrolling on your phone and keep telling yourself none of what MAGA is doing is your fault.
edit: I'm gonna expand a little for people who keep saying Harris was a bad candidate who didn't get the support of "the base". She got 75 million fucking votes, Trump just got 2.3 million more. The "base" voted for her just fine, it was the FRINGE who didn't.
😂 next time dont put a candidate up who supports a genocide, cant be bothered to support workers, and couldnt even break 5% in a primary and maybe your candidate will win.
The only people you have to blame for this is you morons who chanted vote blue no matter who and harris who ran a dog shit campaign.
Its like you dumbasses dont know the first thing about how reality works and unfortunately we're all suffering because of it
The way reality works is that you never get everything you want, and you often have to make the least bad choice available. Refusing to vote so you can maintain your own moral purity makes you the dumbass.
ROFL. tell me my friend, how is trump working out for you? lol. the lack of self reflection on your end is hilarious.
the lack of ability in recognizing that the least bad choice rationalization is that there are a significant number of people who consider trump to be said choice.
A candidates job is to prove they're said candidate and sadly supporting a genocide, actively suppressing minority groups within your campaign, ignoring/fucking over the working class, etc proves to many people that you're not the least bad choice on a ballot of 5.
next time dont play the 'best option we have' game because other people dont agree with your premise. make sure the option you put forward is the least bad.
welcome to reality. enjoy your trumpettes.
