Except it's the people (and the protest non-voters!) hanging themselves.
The democrats didn't do anything wrong! Who could have known doing nothing to help your constituents and also facilitating genocide is unpopular?
If only there was some historical precedent to tell us whether trying to be the "moderate, reasonable, competent republicans" will get republicans to vote for you or if it just lowers turnout.
Exhibit A. Congratulations!
You can be critical of the democratic party and still have voted for them. You can think they have their heads so far up their ass that they are walking around inside out, and still have voted for them.
Some of us hate the Democratic party in it's current state and want nothing more than to over turn it and "drain the swamp" but realize they are unfortunately the only safe option. That doesn't mean they don't need to change.
Even if you didn't vote Democrat, you have every right to rip their proverbial heads off and shit down their proverbial necks.
They are the opposition party... and they're doing nothing.
