[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only ones I’m being somewhat polite too are the ones that didn’t vote at all.

It really only would have taken a handful to plug their nose and go lesser evil to not be in this mess. [/quote]

Sorry but this statement just isn’t true. 1. We live in an electoral college and certain states matter way more than others. Not voting or voting 3rd party in DC is a completely different calculation than say, Ohio.

Secondly, you assume that everyone who sat this one out or didn’t vote for the main 2 candidates would have swung towards Kamala. That’s just not true either. A lot of people I know who are libertarian voted Trump this time around - Kamala was never an option. Many of the third party voters I know haven’t voted for a Republican or democrat in 10-20 years.

Not sure why people continue to blame voters instead of asking why the Dems don’t have a coherent message that would swing people who wouldn’t vote for them to begin with to start voting for them now. That’s on the politician to do their job to do something other than just not be Trump.[/quote]

Agree about consistent 3rd party voters. But it is ignorant to say Democrats did not have a coherent message. Of course they did. Trump voters could not listen to it.

Democrats were fighting against a barrage of targeted, emotionally charged disinformation. That BS from the right has to stop. Look at how many people on this thread are continuing to cling to fake "facts" that have been clearly debunked and never had a shred of truth to them. THAT is the problem with politics today.[/quote]
