this thread is full of people placing blame on everyone except the people who actually voted for trump. face the facts: the democrats could have put caucasian jesus on the ticket and trump would still have won.

it’s possible to make tonnes of mistakes, lose, and still claim you didn’t make any mistakes.
that’s not fodder for a pithy quote. that’s denial.
im not the one in denial honey bun
Yeah, but there were lots of mistakes.
Lots.
the first mistake: they tried to run against a fascist bigot (america loves voting for these)
the second mistake: something so minor and inconsequential that it would gained .001% more votes (lefties will debate what this was forever)
I could probably count the things that weren’t mistakes on one hand.
“I have a secret plan to defeat trump in 100 days” - everyone on the internet
y’all need to face the facts that the democrats could have ran a white jesus christ and it wouldnt have moved the needle
Frankly, this take is profoundly arrogant and indicative of why the Democrats lost to Trump (again, arguably again-again).
This implies that the Democrats could not have possibly done any better, or at least submits to the idea that there is nothing meaningful to be learned from this failure. It projects onto the general electorate a deterministic outlook, that they were always going to vote for Trump no matter what as a way to shield the Democrats and ourselves from accountability.
This is a difficult time time for all of us. We are looking down the barrel of another Trump presidency, one that promises to be a significant tragedy in the history of our nation. It hurts to know what’s coming and people are resigning themselves to complacency in order to ease the pain.
But if we want to stand a chance the next time around, we need to understand that the Democrats played a role in their own demise. We need to demand better, not make excuses for them and perpetuate the mediocrity that has been the Democratic platform over the last decade. We can’t just hope for another deadly crisis to get us out of this one.
yawn
wake me when you are not voting for a bigot and putting in effort to convince others not to vote from a bigot
until then your internet comments are basicaly just masturbation
Open to discussion, but since 2008, the Democrats have won every election where the leadership didn’t “put their finger on the scale” in the primaries/picking the candidate. Obama, Obama; Clinton arguably shouldn’t have been the nominee and Sanders should have; Biden was (?) properly primaries; Harris was picked — obvious pick, but still, not primaried.
Or the other reason, that the US is too sexist to elect a woman. It’s depressing either way of course.
face facts, if biden had lost the internet would have blamed the dnc and said bernie would have won
america has a ton of racists and sexists and some of yall keep trying to blame the non racists and sexists for all the racism and sexism
America would have elected Oprah in a heartbeat.
The problem was thumbing the scale for wet rags who don’t lead and can’t inspire.
thats what the internet said about joe biden but he won… what coud the difference be I wonder🤔🤔
Did you seriously just try to invoke correlation as causation? There couldn’t ba ANY other causes that you can think of? Anything?
