    Literally everyone could see this coming during the election year. Don’t know what’s more depressing, that a majority of Americans wanted this, that some Americans somehow couldn’t see this coming, or that some thought “yes, this is worth it to teach the Democrats a lesson about picking uninspiring candidates with a slightly weird laugh.”

      Will you people stop whining about the negligible number of people staying home ‘to teach the Democrats a lesson’? There never were many of those. She was going to lose regardless. They had an uphill battle with Biden not dropping out earlier, and then they weren’t out there campaigning nearly enough. Her visibility was just terrible and she had no platform other than “I’m not Trump”. They fucked up. Don’t blame people for sitting out. They’re not doing it to help Trump

        They will never stop. They will just let Trump do awful shit, unfazed, so they can point and blame this is their fault.

          Blame Biden and Harris and everyone who was responsible. Blaming non-voters is idiotic. They’re tuning out exactly because the career politicians fucked it up to the point where they feel democracy doesn’t help anyways. I don’t agree but shaming people into voting for you is just a losing strategy. And it’s tiresome whining at this point
