I get you’re mad that Trump won, but you’re blaming the wrong people.

Liberals are so fucking obnoxious.

"How dare you vote your conscience"

Seriously go fuck yourselves if you think this. I've tried to reason with these people but they aren't willing to put themselves in the shoes of someone who couldn't stomach voting for Harris. Grow the fuck up, expand your viewpoint, and stop being a condescending prick on the internet, I fucking beg you.

If you're on the internet insulting anyone who didn't vote for Harris, you are the reason we're in this situation. You and your ilk are the reason the democrats can run a right wing campaign and then blame leftists when they (predictably) lose. It's honestly fucking pathetic.

Sorry I'm just getting so fucking tired of these people.

Agreed. Harris lost by more than 7 million votes. Leftists were critical of Kamala because she is pro-Israel, among other things. These "other things" are the reasons most people who abstained from voting didn't vote for her.

If Dems wanted to win then they should have had better messaging and policy. Kamala lost because her platform didn't appeal to most Americans. She never talked about anything that would improve people's material conditions, and instead tried to appeal to "fallen Republicans".

Harris didn't lose this election because of Gaza. She lost it because she ran a dogshit campaign. Democrats had nothing to be excited for so they didn't bother voting. People aren't as motivated to vote when they are merely doing lesser evil voting.
