OP, per Rule 4, for accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcript in the post body.


Edit: Counting this as a warning for future posts, OP, but since you might not be here to address this, a transcript in a comment as a lesser substitute:

Bushra Shaikh (@Bushra1Shaikh): How TF did Americans vote the clown in, not once but TWICE.

Readers added context

This creator posted on Election Day 2024: "Punish the democrats for their passive response to the genocide in Palestine. If there ever was a party who should have stood firmly against it, we would've assumed the Dems. They proved otherwise. F Kamala Harris. Hope she loses.” [truncated URL to the post here]

Putin trolls are fueling dissent on both sides to create polarization in the West.

Woah, making it feel like 2016 in here.

I mean, she's right. Dems are supposed to represent the ideological opposite of Cons, both domestically and internationally.

Of course, US foreign policy has always been uni-party, so there was never a chance that the Dems were going to concede. Despairingly so.

I voted for Kamala, but she didn't everything in her power to destroy the momentum she got after Biden dropped out.

The fall of democracies is filled with infighting between the people who oppose the regime.

Americans are idiots and colonial terrorists so this is extra bad. They got played so obviously by the people they are now helping by shitting on the opposition

The United States was not a democracy before Trump, or Joe Biden wouldn't have continued providing wildly-unpopular military aid to the genocidal Zionazi regime.

We're a democracy only where our elites allow us to be.

Arguing over who would have genocided people the nicest is fucked up on soooooooo many levels.

And it's also the inevitable conclusion of "lesser evil" politics.

This person is an idiot. The american public gave up on their one chance to influence the outcome of the presidency and fucked it up for everyone beyond comprehension, and are now still trying to push the blame on the establishment. Fuck every one of the sitouts and republican voters. You enabled the orange buffoon and couldnt see the threat he represented. Sometimes, when life gives you a choice between lemons and your way of life being destroyed in a childish tantrum, you swallow the fucking lemon.

Gaza and the world thanks you. Fuckers.
