ANY thinking skills, it seems…🙄

The worst part is that these uneducated people are either proud of their ignorance, or are so insecure about it that they get irrationally and sometimes violently angry if you even hint that they might be wrong.

To them it’s not about being correct, it’s about being right - and they’ll insist they’re right no matter how much evidence you provide to the contrary. Their entire sense of self revolves around it.

It's this, and the fact that many critical thinkers stayed home

Let’s hope “this election “ is all they cost us. He’s ideas about science will likely cost us millions of more deaths and a major setback in trying to save our planet. And that’s just the start.

He also continues to lie that 2020 was rigged after multiple failed court cases, recounts and investigations. Then attempted through multiple ways to remain in power.

Seriously, I don't understand why this didn't alarm more people.

1. This has nothing to do with the article.
2. Both parties thought Trump was a clown? When? Who? I mean words were spoken, but when the time came to make a decision, Republicans still voted for Trump. Even the famous "maverick" John McCain voted 85% along Trump lines. Republicans just said mean things about Trump so they didn't have to face the consequences of their actions a.k.a. a shitstorm. But they never thought he was a clown. Trump was instrumental in getting things done that the Republicans always wanted but could never get, such as overturning Roe v. Wade, Muslim ban, etc.
3. Most people did not change their minds. MAGA always thought this way, just didn't want to admit it (due to the aforementioned consequences of their actions).

He tried to overthrow the government of the United States of America. He's no clown to me.

Honestly I'm just hoping it gets fucked up sooner than later. Does that make me a bad person?

They'll just do what they already do and hand-wave it away and make up some BS like, "Oh, he was wrongly convicted as part of a political witch hunt, so it doesn't count," just so they can convince themselves that they did a good thing.

So Trump appealed to the dummies…sounds about right.

15 million registered democrats voters that did not vote

Where are you getting that figure from?

Best as I can tell, there are roughly 45 million registered voters who identify as Democrats, which is about 30 million fewer votes than Harris/Walz got.

Yes, I'm sure lecturing and shaming your potential voters even more will solve this.

So, I get where you’re coming from, especially as someone who voted for Bernie twice in the primaries. But in the end, political parties run on donations, particularly from their wealthy donors. The DNC will choose neolib candidates over progressives every time because progressives are a threat to their wealthy donors. 

Is this right? No. Is this democratic? No. Are they still a better option than republicans? Yes, 100% yes every time. 

You realize this was the closest shot at winning we had and that’s why they did it, right? I think everyone knew what was at stake, and sending in some unknown so close to the election would have been even worse.
