Or maybe the fact that killing innocent children in Gaza was more important to her than winning the election is why we're here today.
Nah. We're here because braindead Americans can't accept that they aren't going to get a perfect candidate and are willing to burn their nation to the ground in retaliation for that.
Adults make the right decision, even if it isn't perfect. Adults don't need a candidate to be perfect in order to do what's right for their nation and themselves.
You simpletons keep confusing "perfect" with "the bare fucking minimum"
To me the bare fuxking minimum is not raping child slaves. The world is bigger than gaza and israel but yeah let give epstiens best bud, the guy running an israeli honey pot mind you, the keys to the nukes
If only Harris had been an adult and made the right decision to try to win the election instead of sacrificing it because killing brown people was more important to her.
You're underestimating how many leftists voted for Harris despite their misgivings.
She ran a bad campaign and didn't convince enough voters that she was different enough from Trump and Biden to earn their vote.
Perfect is really doing some heavy lifting. Sure shes better. I would have voted for her if i was an US-American. But shes still garbage. She kind of is controlled opposition. Making us look away from what would be actually good vs whats better than the worst option. It serves to legitimize their position in fear of the alternative. Thats not democracy. I am not saying that you should not vote, endorse or even accept the shitstain we get in the USA that is represented by Trump but running to the Democrats as the goal or seeing voting as the primary political action is a big blunder in my eyes. (again do vote).
You make it sound like democracy was a mistake
lololol you think this is democracy? Its not. The vast majority of both parties dont support the actions of the elected representitives. The US runs on bribes and rich people's wishes and has for a long time. Theres a reason law enforcement dont prosecute the rich, even when they are caught raping kids on an industrial scale.
I agree and that's why I am not the one pretending voting is the reason for the system we have. People who blame voters will end up concluding that democracy is a mistake.
I mean it kinda was but that's a much more complicated topic
Every single candidate who could have won was pro-Israel. That's the default position of the US government regardless of which party's in power. It's NOT the default position to randomly genocide, say, Iran, though. It is BS that you have to vote for more genocide support or less genocide support? Yes. But voting for more genocide support or not voting at all so the ones that support more genocide win worked out really well, huh?
So you're saying the default position was to lose the election. She made the conscious decision to not want to win. All I'm hearing. There's a pathway to win she chose to do the opposite.
You realize that presidential candidates also have to take international relations into account, right?
So breaking from Israel to win an election may not play out great with Israel after being elected. That goes for any of our allies.
But hey, we got a felon rapist pedophile that lets Israel tell him to do whatever they want him to do. So I guess that worked out for us, right?
If Israel wants it, then it is the default position. If you don't think Harris would have bombed Iran, then I have a bridge to sell you
