Don't forget the heroes who voted for Jill Stein. Because if you didn't then you lOvE gEnOcIdE
Not loving genocide, but genocide wasn't a deal-breaker. Which is completely insane, if you stop to think about it for even a minute
So you are saying "voting for a Democrat was voting for genocide" like the other clowns? Despite the fact that the only hope for Gaza was Democrats.
What convinced you of this?
The history of Presidential elections in the United States. What convinced you that voting against the only shot at stopping or slowing conservative policy was helpful to any Palestinian (let alone the rest of the world, particularly American minorities)?
It seems to me that every president so far has taken the side of Israel against Palestine, regardless of whether they're Republican or Democrat. The current genocide started under a Democratic president (Biden) who bent over backwards and even went behind the back of Congress to give Israel everything they wanted.
So, what makes you think that the Democrats are the "only hope" for Palestinians? Jill Stein wants an arms embargo, something which Harris wouldn't even entertain the idea of.
Jill Stein is a paid Russian asset who only exists to take votes away from Democrats. It's so obvious.
Why don't the Democrats just take her platform, then? Should be an easy fix. There would be no reason to vote for the Green if the Democrat had all the same positions.
Do you think voting for Jill Stein helped anyone? Trump winning is fine right?
both RFK jr and jill stein had the same amount of voters; they are all likely republican voters anyways.
We failed ourselves
I think this is the best take.
The national Democratic party is a collection of thousands of smaller local Democratic parties. We've abandoned the local parties, allowing the corporate rot to take over the national party. We don't need a new 3rd party, we need to take control of the local Democratic parties which already have the infrastructure in place to fund raise and run campaigns.
Good luck if you get three leftists in a room together they have six different ideas on how to get things done and will argue to the death about the best way instead of doing anything.
Yes. it was Conover's take as well.
Wow, the left take over the Democratic Party???? Genius! I wonder why nobody ever thought of that before...
Huh. Seems like a crazy thing to overlook, right?
Yeah here in Ohio we had multiple state referendums where things like abortion and recreational marijuana were overwhelming approved by the voters. So the Democrats proceeded to say nothing anout how they were going to protect those objectively popular issues and instead ran a bunch of ads about how they are going to work with Trump on securing the border, then were shocked that they all got BTFOed in November.
