    Do you see enough votes from any independent to get Kamala elected? Stop blaming the voters. She didn’t campaign.

      when “the candidate who wants start a fresh, new genocide” wins the popular vote, it is the perfect time to blame the voters

          I believe that’s a huge part of it, but it sucks that those people just want trump to print more money

          And the cycle continues…

          Also valid. The democrats and their mouthpieces in the press yelled from the rooftops that the economy was Good Actually and that people were just too dumb to see it.

          Trump campaigned on the economy being bad, and then scapegoated everyone except the corporate elite that are raising prices.

      A lack of accountability has been a recurring theme here. The orange man will take no accountability for attempting an insurrection, or for the hatred he encourages. Voters will not take accountability for electing a fascist.

        Nor will the legal system take responsibility for not doing anything about Trump before he pardoned himself.

        Nor will the Democrats take any responsibility when Trump steamrolls over their constituents.

        American institutions have failed in many ways, and the Biden administration has given up every tine the institutions fail. Now we have this.

        Did she campaign? Did she run a good campaign? Did she go into the black barber shops, like Trump did? Did she go into the McDonald’s, like Trump did? Did she go out to meet the people, like Trump did?

        She tried scaring people away from Trump and it didn’t work. They want an economy that’s doing better than this. They want jobs. They want their life to be better.

        That’s how you win elections. You tell people you know how to make their lives better. You don’t tell them the other guy is going to make their life worse. That doesn’t win an election. It never has.

        It gets downvotes, but it’s still not wrong.

          The thing is that she shouldn’t have needed to campaign. Trump is a big enough piece of work that he shouldn’t have been an option in anyones mind.

          Putins propaganda machine made him win. The guy didn’t even have a campaign program for fucks sake.
