Yup, ANY democrat would be better than the #ConvictedFelon! Harris might've been on her way proving her capabilities to some. But he always proved himself a criminal, a pathological liar and a narcissistic dictator. The choice couldn't be easier!
Am I so out of touch? No... it's the voters who are wrong!
You can keep blaming the voters for the dems continually shifting to the right to pick up the like 20 never trump Republicans or you can realize that you need to get the votes of the people who stayed home
Sorry. But the only true power and this responsibility DOES belong to the voters. Those who stayed home voted away the very rights they were holding hostage. So now we have THE very group that OPENLY threatened to end those rights entirely. Dems didn't lose. We all know full well what was lost.
Choosing to fail. Trump wins because he activates people who don't normally show up. Dems could do that too but they'd have to offer a meaningful populist message and then act on it.
Trump wins bc he activates fear, hate, mysoginy, greed and otherism, with assistance from those who want democracy to fail, using tactics used by dictators: constant lies, propaganda, gaslighting, disinformation and chaos, keeping voters confused/distracted. Opposing that should've been enough!
Liberal institutionalism is just hard countered by fascism, I'm sorry. Grieve how you like but for now it's a dead project. It's not enough because of the tactics used. So you have to ask yourself, do you want to win or not?
I don't know what Liberal institutionalism is. I know what fascism is. I know Trump, et al. pose the greatest threat to America in my lifetime and their attacks are in plain sight now. I know that a Harris WH would've meant more rights to debate the issues ppl claimed to care about, just not enough

Then quit picking candidates that try so hard to appeal to all that end up appealing to too few Americans.
I voted for Kamala. But you, and by you I mean the establishment Dems, please stop picking shit candidates
