Corporate democrats #1 policy: protect the 1% at all costs
She failed to differentiate herself from biden in many different ways. One of which was her stance on genocide. Less people generally came out and voted for her in part due to these factors
Lol Americans didn't stay home for gaza, most Americans didn't give a shit about that.
It was always about the cost of living. The average Democratic voter mindset is: "I voted Biden last time and nothing changed except food got more expensive, why bother voting"
You're right that most American's didn't give a shit, but even those who did knew that the genocide was not on the ballot.
Or rather, "no genocide plz" wasn't on the ballot. Not on a viable choice, FPTP voting, etc, etc. The choices were "same old stuff" and "foot on the gas, bomb it into pink and gray dust and build a chintzy resort."
Cuz they all went to billionaire schools that tells them support billionaires and the economy will be good.
"vote for the least worse bruh"
We don't want to vote for the least worse, we want to vote for the best.
And wow Bernie is right again.
I blame it on people too stupid to vote for someone other than Trump.
Couch sitters, too. If you're so apathetic or ignorant you think not voting because you erroneously believed the BoTH sIDeS bullshit or voting Trump was better, that is the problem.
But then you must trace the root of why people are ignorant and apathetic to the right-wing propaganda machine both foreign and domestic.
Blue no matter who’s, too. People blindly supporting their party and trying to silence any criticism leading to a party that only gets worse each election, are the problem.
Despite people’s ignorance on the topic the Democrats are also apart of the global right wing propaganda machine mind you, they are also a capitalist party.
And Bernie would be right. I hope to god that Kamala sits out the next election.
It's not just Kamala Harris, it is democrats in general. I get that they want the first woman president ... but its not going to happen in this political environment. Many Hatian immigrants that voted for Trump just because they don't think a woman can be president. Copy that ... Trump said these people are eating cats and they still voted for him. Hispanics? News flash, they are predominantly Catholic ... so Pro Choice doesn't go over well for them. Then people got angry because Kamala skipped the whole nomination prosses. Stuff like this is why she lost. Biden should have ran, then resigned after he beat Trump again.
Biden wasn't ever going to beat trump after that complete failure of a debate. Harris was the dems Hail Mary play after they finally realized that.
No way Biden wins a second time. His mind was critically failing during the debates, the average voter saw that, and minorities didn't win him the election overall, white people did.
No shit…
I wish I could believe that.
I mean, don't get me wrong - it would've been a better route to take in any case, whether it delivered the campaign from defeat or not.
But I have no faith in my fellow Americans to choose politicians or policies that represent their best interests.
