True. We can’t give up. We need leaders to plan and expedite actions to get us out of the chaos. Name calling and blaming will get us nowhere.

So disappointed we could not make this happen! So admire this woman who did all she could!
They voted for eggs and owning it to the ‘lIBtArdS’
Disagree 100%. Her annointment is the reason trumpy got elected. Under handed appointment to run based completely on identity politics. There should have been a convention, and dem fortunes would be a lot different then they are now. The continued use of identity politics will sink dems further.
💪🤬
Oooo there's horse face lady again
I disowned many longtime friends for voting for Trump. I will not miss them one bit.
I realized that we did not share the most important values in life, honesty, morality, empathy, etc.
Talk to the billionaires who own corporate media....
Do you think she was intelligent, kind, and worthy when enabling genocide?
No one trusts the US anymore. The first time Trump was elected was a disaster, but the world was willing to give us a pass and try again. Not this time. The United States will never recover from what the Trump regime has done and is doing and will do. The time of the US is over.
The fact this is what it took for the US to lose trust is honestly astounding. I personally think illegally secretly bombing Cambodia and Laos so badly kids still get blown up from lost mines should have been enough
You are not wrong. But I guess countries are a lot like Americans they don’t really care when the US government screws over somebody else, only when it comes home to roost for them.
I think there's also been a lot of ummm "persuasive diplomacy" that went into that to be fair
Really, no one should ever trust a treaty with the US after watching it just trample over every single treaty with indigenous ppls. That should have been enough
After the shit that was done to found the US no one should ever trust the us federal gov
That Bible man said bad trees only yield bad fruit, so there's always been good reason for suspicion
Kamala looks so cute in that photo. 🥹
I’m sure the Palestinians she stood by and watched die are so impressed by how “cute” she is. I’m sure if she had won and kept destroying their homeland, they would have forgiven her because of her “cuteness” 🙄🤦🏻♀️ Gimme a break…
It's fine because nothing's changed with the dictator in power now and Ukraine is STILL being attacked. Everything is SO MUCH WORSE than it would've been with Kamala. Waiting for the perfect candidate is a wet dream. Our country wouldn't be in shambles if she were president.
your country sanctioned the international court for investigating genocide under democrats, gfy
The insane countries and leaders don't trust the US anymore either.
You must remember that racism and misogyny are still very powerful forces of IGNORANCE in this country. We as a society have not done the appropriate things to educate and discourage HORRIBLE behavior, we just legitimized it as normal; which it’s not.
What are they talking about lilo and stitch?
Sad but true!
We could have had a kinder gentler Kamala genocide of Palestinians. How about running anti-war, anti-genocide candidates Democrats? People who will help Americans, not just corporations, the rich and themselves with insider stock trading. And that don't take $5 million in AIPAC money.
That smile alone makes her worthy.
God you people are idiots, "policy means nothing, but I'll vote for a smile"
The us versus them attitude is exactly why we’ll be voting for succession next time Keep our four trillion dollar GDP within our boundaries. I’m tired of my tax dollars subsidizing the red states who practice some sort of perverted version of Christianity and vote for a morally hollow individual
"This us vs them attitude is bad so fuck everyone in red states'
Calexit. United West America. Wall from Canada to Mexico to keep out the red walking dead.
"I hate us vs them politics. But everyone in a red state is a zombie" Normal
Let’s talk about what you voted for:CONVICTED FELON, SERIAL RAPIST, SOCIOPATH, LIAR, HORRIBLE BUSINESSMAN…NEED I GO ON?? That SMILE is looking pretty good right now wouldn’t you say? 😝🤬
I’m lost now
Me too…apparently the person that I was speaking with was not from the US I should have known that because even though we disagree with each other here in the US…we DO NOT use such horrible language, especially toward women. So brush up on your language etiquette.
Yes a couple rude comments thrown your way. Not at all necessary if I’d butted in to help they might of continued their tirade. I should have known some would take my comment literally but it was meant to be somewhat of a parable.
Mahalo…have a safe rest of the weekend 🤙
Cry about it you pair of fucking idiots
If that was your attempt at a parable you're no fucking Aesop.
What the fuck are you on about? The USA is run by facists, and this is what you're spending your time on? Your country is cooked and it's not coming back if your answer to this is "look at the smile we could have had"
God you really are a stupid cunt
He lives in the U.K. you mad bat
Americans understand countries other than America exist challenge: impossible.
Their brains would collapse in on themselves. Like that old guy in the first episode of Westworld that saw a photo of the outside world.
Ok, so I guess you prefer Trump's "policy"(?) Mind telling how is it working for you so far?
Not at all, idiot. I'm just saying pushing to the right to appeal to imaginary swing republicans at the expense of your actual base turned out, unsurprisingly, to be an election loser.
Zero people with brains prefer Trump, but acting like Harris is a perfect savior is pathetic.
So the solution was not to vote or vote for orange?
The solution was a dem party offering something to vote *for* not just saying "vote against the other party" while trying to appeal to the republican base yet again
I can't speak for anyone but myself. Idk why you're putting the onus of a failed, corrupt system on some random on Bluesky.
By the way, Trump has no policies, so you can't claim that's what you voted for. his voters are just tools for his own interests. FAFO.
I didn't vote for Trump you dog-brained moron
Trump is quite literally driving this country into the ground, our allies are beginning to not trust us anymore..
Yeah. And the dems fucking lost to him. They need to rethink their policy, platform and electoral strategy.
Trump and his “friends” want to turn this country into a dictatorship, going after people for exercising their right to protest, people getting deported for criticizing him..
Yes. And the dems have fucking lost to him twice simply because they fucking suck and actively don't want anything to get better because it would upset their donors. This, it turns out, does not win elections.
As for the deportations and cracking down on protest? The dems were doing that too.
It doesn’t make it right for any party to do that especially since we have a wannabe dictator as president, he’s just doing more harm than good, yes both parties aren’t good but I’d rather not have a wannabe dictator as our president
Then you should pressure the dems to offer better candidates and policies so people actually want to fucking vote for them?
You’d rather have a smiling warmonger? Ewww, that’s pretty shitty. Raise your standards, my dude. Demand a better candidate. That’s what we tried to do but you Blue MAGA types refused to stop fellating the DNC.
I never said I wanted that, what I’m saying is that I don’t want a president that’s actively tearing our country apart, and yes I am demanding better candidates
What does that have to do with it being stupid to be impressed by a politician smiling
She was/is such a ray of sunshine.
She’s a warmonger who was already complicit in genocide and refused to back down from it. She threw trans people under the bus. She was no “ray of sunshine”, she was a terrible candidate who was never going to beat Trump.
If you were in Gaza in 2022, there is a high problability that you would be serving a 10 year prison sentance on the charge of "Homosexual Behavior".
Which is relevant…..how? 🤷🏻♀️ Human rights are human rights and genocide is wrong no matter who it’s perpetrated against. How they’d treat me doesn’t make it right to kill them all. Jesus…
You are right. The world just watched.
You believe all people deserve rights and dignity. That is your value. Arab Muslims do not share it. If they had the option, they would violate and murder you.
And again, that justifies standing by and watching them die? Or worse, helping make it happen? You are the worst.
In the future, if you wake up with jack-boots banging on your door, and dissapearing you into the night, Or if one of your friends gets curb-stomped by some closet-caee, and the police throw their murderer a parade Rememeber that the Muslims decided you were a sacrefice they were willing to make.
You are literally too stupid to live.
The American Muslims watched the past 5 years of politics in this country as one side slandered your community as pedophiles, to be shunned from pop and commercial culture, and society And 80% decided that they would be fine with that paryu capturing all three branches of government.
What we could've had is immeasurable.
Elections matter. Hope their’s another one.
you are writing fan fiction
Well, I voted for Kamala. I wish more of my compatriots did.
Really getting sick of people blaming the vulnerable minorities who didn’t feel represented by either party. Yes, voting Harris was the most pragmatic move if our only goal was to stop Trump. But if the Dems showed more spine opposing the right we wouldn’t be having this problem in the first place
The Democrats are not a left-wing party. They are a moderately right of center party posing as a left-wing party while the GoP goes so far right they’ve jumped the rails into Nazi town. If the Democrats truly had any intention of fighting for the left, the time to do so was 15 years ago.
You want to have Kamala as president have you lost your mind? She can't even talk and make sense let alone be able to make critical decisions that are in the best interest of OUR country!!!!!! President Trump was elected by a huge majority of voters to get Washington D.C. cleaned up and more.
Hello sir. You may have mistaken this site/app with Twitter. The neo-nazi headquarters is the one over there. That's where you'll find like-minded people. Have a day as pleasant as you are!
This is the problem with people on the left, they can't stand anyone that does not agree with them. And only think their way is the only way to do everything, even though 77 million voters elected President Trump overwhelmingly, which you can not stand.
I was really hoping that she would have made a break from Biden's support of genocide in Gaza. Sadly, this wasn't the case. I think that a lot of Americans are sick of voting for the lesser of two evils.
#Disney #X #JoyfulWarriors
The duopoly is not the answer to the Wests problems, the first step is to realise this, substitution of voting for lesser evil still brings today's results, it's a ploy by the establishment to keep you believing the lie that what they present to you is a choice...it's not it is a con trick
49.84%-48.4% over price of eggs? WTF No mandate!
One of the worst things ever😞 I truly believe she won, but they bought this election to end all the rest.
It's because our leadership is neither sane or trustworthy.
I have designed a poster for the upcoming HANDS OFF! protests on Saturday, April 5th. If anyone wants a printable file of it, please message me : ) Find out more about the protests here: www.mobilize.us/handsoff/
They voted AGAINST A WOMAN OF COLOR
Unfortunately, she was going to lose, not just because of politics, but also because she is a woman. I think the democrats coulda had more of a chance if she was VP again & Tim was running. There’s still so much misogyny that I doubt a woman on either side would win at this moment in time.
Doesn’t help Americans have lost faith in the Democratic Party, as they have continued to fail us. When they had more control, they had the chance to work towards free healthcare, taxing billionaires, free/subsidized college, etc. But did they? No. Cause they too are in the the 1%’s pockets.
The Democratic Party is going to have to do a lot of leg work to convince Americans that they give a fuck about them. In a perfect world we’d use this chance to start an actual progressive party to focus on real issues & not letting corporations dictate & lobby against shit that helps us, the people
Also no way Felon 47 won the swing states. Like all of them. And his BFF is a computer dude extraordinaire. Just sayin’.
I can't agree with you more! It's impossible to understand how 48% of those who voted, would rather have a sociopathic, narcissist criminal, then a person who genuinely believes in America and the American dream. And who is intelligent enough to actually help Americans make that dream come true.
I can respect the reason for not voting for Kamala. Democrats will never be forgiven in my eyes for poor candidate choice! They are just as guilty or responsible for this regime in power. They had opportunities to place judges, They denied the opportunity for the dem party to choose candidate.
She would've still sent unlimited arms to Israel don't kid yourself. Better than trump yeah, but not a good president either way.
Harris did not project power. Charm, yes. She laughed a lot when many Americans had nothing to laugh about. She carolled about JOY to citizens had no reason to feel joyful. She called a criminal who promised to be a dictator “weird”. She promised to toe the line and do nothing different from Joe.
Yeah, I know. So instead voters chose fascism, Project 2025, illegal deportations, repression and a possible depression. I mean, there WERE only two real choices. Personally, I voted for charm. And joy. And right now, what Joe did during office looks damn good compared to what we have now.
It was better than what you Americans have now. No doubt about that. And the rest of the world (except Palestine) was less at risk then, than it is now. Which is why I blame Biden for holding on to power too long. I also blame him deliberately pursuing genocide.
Millions just hated the idea of a woman president and another Black president. It really isn’t anything more than that.
Sure. But would America be great again then?😉 Remember the MAGA claim - you guys might need it for the future to win back credibility.
I had the fun job of speaking to black men in Georgia who were voting for Trump, they said America was not ready for a woman president. Now I have the even funner job of asking them “How’s it going?”
Yep. And now Trump wants to pull fed funding from the African American History & Cultural museum in DC. He will try to erase the history & achievements of any but the “Great White Male.” Black men, white women, Hispanics, and the White economically marginalized who voted for him = FAFO
I’m appalled in the daily of what that man tries to get away with. Whitewashing history is one of the absolute worst.
Right. I can’t understand why his butt hasn’t been taken out of the WH in handcuffs & leg irons. We Americans so love a good hero movie but when push comes to shove, heroes are decidedly absent. Uvalde proved that, and this administration is proving it too.
Can we please stop glorifying lesser evils? Harris still would have funded Palestinian genocide & she literally earned her bones throwing Black folks into the draconian meat grinder that is our prison system. Being less worse than an authoritarian dictator is not a high enough bar.
Yep. Total AIPAC shill. A sell out for Genocide will sell out for anything. The real question: how could Dem Leadership think embracing Genocide and villifying protesters was a winning campaign strategy? CoughAIPACcoughHaim Sabancough
Thank you. This.
This. 1000%.
✨🏳️🌈genocide🏳️⚧️✨
If you care this much about an interminable conflict that started before you were born , and that's your excuse for staying home , fuckin move to Gaza and put your ass on the line. There is zero excuse for not voting for a pro democracy candidate.
"Vote for me, or all your rights will be taken away" isn't Democracy. It's a hostage situation. Enjoy being muted.
And you would be useless in a hostage situation.
LOL, I supported Kamala until she LOST, dipshit. I'm not in a cult & I don't owe her permanent fealty, & I'm not obligated to pretend she ran anything short of a half ass campaign. The rest of that wall of apathy signalling is just wannabe tough guy posturing, so fuck your entire self, shitlib.
Shit lib. Enjoy the chicken farm.
I hope you end up in the chicken farm next.
Scratch a liberal, yadda yadda.
Really doesn't take much for you rightwing nonces to reveal yourselves.
Another kiddo whose identity is someone else's struggle. I get it. It's a just cause , it is genocide and I'm assuming you're British ( or just pretentious) so I'll say: the battle for Americans is the one at home. This was fascism vs democracy.
Authoritarian control of the deadliest military in the world gives you psychotic plans for TRUMP GAZA.
The only real difference is that Trump is too stupid to hide his plans behind buzzwords and obfuscation, the world has seen your evil country's actions for a long time.
Do you honestly believe Britain has clean hands? Like I said , you are young and naive.
No but I'm not acting like it's excusable like you, you got anymore whataboutism or you going to present an actual argument?
What would you consider to be an actual argument? Are you pretending that Arab nations haven't tried to annihilate Israel? How is it whatabout to point that out. And propaganda lmfao...not like Brexit right?
I see you are continuing to spout whataboutisms and Zionist bullshit, no big surprise there though. Your country is one of the most propagandised hellholes on earth.
Thank you for proving that sepps are rightwing and incapable of empathy for others, it's not just a sepp issue if your backwards country is helping kill another's people. Trump isn't the cause, he's merely a disgusting symptom of your country's evil.
And I say that as a Substantially Equal Periodic Payment.
No you say it as a kneejerk thought terminating cliche due to your propaganda.
dude ,this is an ancient conflict , and if anything ,illustrates the madness of trying to navigate the modern world with 2000 yr old books. When you get older you'll realize that if the power was in the Arab hands they'd be doing the same shit.
Another copout cookie cutter response from the empire that has nothing to do with what I said, if your argument is "they'd do it too" and you think it's bad that they would it means your side is bad. When you get older I doubt your position will change because your country is heavily propagandised.
That's exactly what I said sir, we are bad . If we are in the middle fucking east IN ANY CAPACITY consider it is with evil , greedy or ill intent. I had respect for the English education system. But man...
So why are you against your government being held to account then, I never had respect for the US education system
Account by whom? And you are correct with that lack of respect. I'm doing the best I can here Nigel.
Then maybe Biden and Harris should have opposed genocide
That's about as simplistic a notion as I've heard and I'm arguing with Ollie up there. Our foreign policy is convoluted and can be cruel. And Harris didn't lose because of these simpletons but they didn't help.
If your argument is that nothing can stop the genocide, you cannot expect people who care about this to have voted for Harris.
If your argument is Americans should care more about Palestine than they do about America you have obviously suffered a fall, as have your American counterparts.
If you're prepared to sacrifice brown kids for your comfort maybe the US shouldn't exist, scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.
Comfort? You don't know much about working class people do you ?
I was referring specifically to US voters with loved ones in Gaza. You are telling them that either way there will be genocide. Why should they vote for Harris?
They shouldn't. They should pool their savings and visit the lavish Gold Coast of Trump Gaza. ( And then be denied entry upon return.)
Dez, her job as a prosecutor had restrictions imposed by CA criminal code. Did you know she worked hard to change that? We don’t know what her Israel/Palestine/Gaza policy would have been. I am certain she wouldn’t be playing a resort for the wealthy.
Decent people don't take jobs as prosecutors in a corrupt, racist system. That's like the myth of a "good cop" changing the system from within. (ACAB) & If her planned policy for Gaza was in any way distinct from Biden's it would have been wise to clarify that herself when it actually mattered.
She literally told us nothing would convince her to stop sending Israel weapons. She was in it for the long haul. So, if you care about the people and not just what would be done with the land afterwards, then the difference is moot.
Support for Israel’s defense isn’t the same as being anti-Palestine. Hamas and the Zionists have to address their issues. I support both Israel and Gaza/West Bank. I support the Israelis while hating what Bibi is doing. I support Palestine without the destructiveness of Hamas.
The IDF, & Bibi, & everyone on board with genocide is at least as bad as Hamas, & U.S. tax dollars aren't paying Hamas' tab. Most Palestinians are dead now, & I'm not sure how much can be sorted out with their ghosts. As long as Americans are footing the bill, neutrality isn't an option.
I have no ill will towards the peaceful Israeli civillians who object to this crime against humanity whatsoever, but you can't both sides 75 years of occupation & apartheid. Any being will lash out if they're actively being tortured & oppressed. All Isreal had to do was de-colonize, & go home.
It's not defense. It's genocide. You're supporting a monstrous regime bombing schools and hospitals and pretending it's "defense." Either you've uncritically swallowed Netanyahu's propaganda, or you don't actually give a damn about the Palestinians who are being wiped out.
And what do you think is going to happen to the people now? They will be relocated to a lovely new place? Keep patting yourself on the back though.
I think what's going to happen to them now is the same as what would have happened if she had won. The difference between you and me is that I was always going to care, but if she had won you wouldn't give a shit.
They got what they wanted. The stick it to Harris ended up screwing over the Palestinians
The Palestinians were screwed regardless, because the Democrats were also arming terrorists & funding genocide. Maybe the Dems should have stopped that. This entey level rhetoric isn't going to be effective.
Are you sure about that 🤔 Who did you vote for?
Your family in Gaza may be in danger because the literal NYC real estate villain is president, but at least I can feel good about being the most moral human around.
Everyone in Gaza was in danger regardless. Maybe if more people had firm convictions, or the Dems had run a better candidate that wouldn't be the case.
Who would that have been?
Yeah, it looked so great under Biden, when he sent over 70 million tons of bombs to Israel.
Families in Gaza were literally in danger for the entire final year of the Biden administration and weren't going to be safer no matter who won. Stop using people you don't care about to prop up your arguments you sick fuck.
I don't have family there
She would have been exponentially better and not a dictator, what do Russian bots like yourself get for capping for Trump ?
A predictably shitlib response. 🙄 No Russian bot here, dipshit & I despise Trump, I'm just not a gullible moron who thinks fascism just appeared out of nowhere. 50 years of mediocre neoliberalism created the conditions for Trump, you stupid fuck. Enjoy the mute.
Thanks for the soundbite that I assume you got from Cornell West or RFK Jr, I see you 🤣
The lesser of two evils is still less evil. You don’t get your perfect candidate. You get the better of two choices. That is the system we have.
Cool, well I'm not mindless status quo scaffolding, & prefer to work to alter that mediocre paradigm instead of idolizing or getting wistful about lesser evils, & continuing to settle for less worse in perpetuity. 🤦♂️
I hope your smugness keeps you warm at night.
That seems like a selective assessment given your initial condescending tone, but if my clear & concrete convictions make you feel insecure for some reason, I don't know how to help you other than to terminate the interaction & mute you.
Well you can work within it or you can live in a dictatorship. A decent leader lost to a craven criminal. Are any of your issues handled better by Trump? No. He only cares about billionaires. We lost it all over purity politics.
And look where we are now; Much MUCH further away from a decent leader because protest voters don't know how to strategize. The protest voter crowd would likely have had a more successful movement negotiating with a Harris/ Walz admin. then they do with this one . couldn't think of the big picture
If you want to lecture Muslims who didn't want to be complicit in their own genocide, good luck with that, but that cringey shit isn't going to get any traction with me.
If you think "protest voters" decided the election, you watch too much corporate media. Most on the left held their breath & voted for Harris. We simply reserve the right to criticize her for being a shitty candidate.
& "negotiating" with centre right Democrats is a myth. People said the same naive shit about Biden in 2020. It's still bullshit. They only care about the Left when they demand our fealty without earning our votes. Once they're elected, we don't matter.
Nobody is responsible for the Democrats losing, but themselves. Decade after decade they court equally mythical "moderate Republicans" & veer further & further right, in capitulation & ignore rhe Left. The lazy scapegoating is over. That shit isn't going to be taken seriously anymore.
Either the Left is a fringe contingent & we aren't significant enough to warrant being heard or represented, or we're the deciding factor in every fucking election & it's on the DNC for consistently alienating, insulting, scapegoating, & ignoring us until they need something & failing repeatedly.
Congratulations, you're both right that the Left and the Centre are terrible strategists and that's why neither of you ever get anywhere meaningful.
LOL, uh, no. The Left never gets anywhere because the instant a progressive candidate gets traction, they're crushed by a multi-billion dollar media industry whose interests don't align with progressive policy. The DNC primaries them, or failing that, funds Republican opponents. 🙄
That's half the problem. The other half is that you guys can't seem to put across a unified and appealing argument. The Pro-Palestinian movement for example seems to have differing goals ranging from wanting a Two-State Solution, Israel being dissolved and absorbed and lastly flat out pro-Hamas.
LOL "pro-Hamas". Okay, corporate media parrot. That's enough bullshit propaganda from you. Enjoy the mute.
I'm not basing that on the media, I'm basing that off people I've actually argued with. But even without that waving around Palestinian flags doesn't exactly scream "I don't like Hamas!" even if for most of you it's true.
The protest voters months of broadcasted negativity towards the Harris / walz campaign helped the magas win the election. Might not have been the only reason, but it was a loudly publicized reason. I notice I don't see those same protest voters disrupting maga events like they did the Dems.
It's very simple. All Harris had to do to win was openly denounce genocide. Fuck all your false equivalencies & scapegoating & parroted CNN commentator dipshit talking points. I can't with this wilfully obtuse B.S.
And enough with the "sHe WaS A bAd cANdiDate" excuse. You all knew what the alternative was and you still helped sabotage the campaign helping NOBODY except for maga.
& Just say Leftists & Muslims. Quit hiding behind that "protest voter" bullshit. You sound like a shitlib boomer.
It's a "loudly publicized reason" in corporate news echo chambers where there's a vested interest in the DNC not taking responsibility for their shortcomings. It's called scapegoating. It's PROPAGANDA. Jesus, man, are you new?
And no longer as loudly publicized towards the people that are in charge present day. The fact that the same energy isn't being directed towards the current admin. suggests political sabotage , because it seems nobody the protest voters were seemingly trying to help is better off.
No shit, we were desperately trying to get Harris to break the code & adjust her strategy while there was time for it to mean something. Her obstinance & refusal to adapt is her own fault. & No, Left wing opposition to the Right is famously downplayed or ignored by the media.
At this point, most Leftists are simply done trying to reason with the Right because it's a waste of time & now we're waiting for the rest of you to wake the fuck up & realize that voting for shitlib imperialists won't defeat fascism, even if they win.
Blah blah blah
If you don't have an intelligent rebuttal shutting the fuck up is always a valid option. I'll help you by muting you.
Please do
Oh so what we have is better? shut the fuck up 🥴🙄
Based on this reply I am following you ...
Can you read? I literally said she would have been "LESS WORSE". I supported her crappy campaign in opposition to Trump, but I'm free to point out that she was a shitty candidate. Cope & take your own advice. Muting you now.
Nobody ever said she was better but comparing both of them the same is fucking crazy. That’s why we lost 🙄🥴
Sounds like a bot response
Sounds like you don't have an intelligent or fact based rebuttal.
I’m not gonna bite on the misinformation here. But you guys have a two party system. This rhetoric is what got Trump elected in the first place. You literally got what you wanted so I’m not sure why you’re complaining?
No "misinformation" has been presented here, & I decidedly did not "get what I wanted" at all. What I wanted was a candidate who presented a true alternative to genocide & authoritarianism. Harris was not that.
These idiots think refusing to support Harris equates to unfettered support for Trump - it has to since they also think anything other than a vote for Harris equates to a vote for Trump. Their mental gymnastics would be hilarious if it weren’t so enraging.
Too true. They've been selling their soul a piece at a time every 4 years & need to pretend it meant something in the absence of all evidence to the contrary. They can't comprehend anything outside their tribalistic bubble, or voting for anything other the privilege of tuning out for 4 more years.
That Gravy dude is also obsessed with you. He keeps telling other commenters to say hi to you since you blocked him 😬
Eww. That definitely validates my decision to mute. LOL
This idiot didn’t say that. But, not picking a side in this election was a vote for Trump. It isn’t “unfettered” support, but support nonetheless. He didn’t want people to show up for Harris, because if they did, he loses. Also, tell Dez I said hi. Since she muted me.
That’s not how reality works. Harris lost because she was a shitty candidate.
That is literally how it works. If the 80 million had shown up like they did for Biden, Kamala would be in office. Trump got more votes in 2020 than he did in 2024. But, glad to know she was good enough to be backup president but not regular president. 👍🏻
The same peoplewho told us 'if you dont vote for her you must be hamas' would now be telling us ';we now have a mandate to kill you for being hamas'
Who said she was “good enough to be backup president”? I never liked or supported her. Or Biden. She had the least votes of the 2020 Dem primary, so my opinion isn’t exactly unique. You are deluded and I don’t know what else to tell you besides rejoin us in the real world.
Also, she was one half of the national ticket. Other than breaking ties in the Senate, what else do you think the VP would do?
Do you really believe it’s the VP’s place to just mindlessly echo the president’s stances? True enough it’s often all they do (if they enter the public light at all, as most are pretty invisible), but nowhere is it dictated they can’t have their own platform or criticize the president.
I voted for Elizabeth Warren in the 2020 primaries. So, who cares? And since we’re playing the guessing game, I bet you think Russia had nothing to do with Trump: Part 2, huh? This loss was squarely on Harris alone and nothing more?
You’re right that you’re playing a guessing game. You know nothing about me aside from my criticism of Harris but somehow feel qualified to speculate about my opinions on the election 🙄🤦🏻♀️ I know damn well Russia had an impact but Harris did an outstanding job of sabotaging her own campaign.
Your claim oversimplifies a complex issue. Aid is about saving lives, not funding war or supporting regimes that cause harm. It’s misleading to suggest that helping vulnerable people somehow endorses atrocities.
What misinformation? Bombs are not "humanitarian aid" & what humanitarian aid we sent was destroyed along with innocent civilians by the bombs we also sent. I'm not sure what's so complex. The U.S. is objectively arming the extermination of the Palestinian people.
Instead of relying on exaggerated narratives, we should focus on the humanitarian need at hand and base our opinions on facts rather than misinformation.
Nothing I presented was in any way exaggerated or "misinformation".
You cant fire rockets across a border and then squeel when the bombs start dropping.
Your inability to distinguish between Hamas & Palestinian civillians is sadly a common affliction, but it's not the smug flex you think it is. You can't do 75 years of brutal colonialism & apartheid & murder & not expect someone to fire rockets at you eventually. Now fuck off Zionist.
"It's not Isreal dropping bombs, it's the IDF."
But at least it would be a kind genocide /s
Just slower but with the same results.
Get a grip please
Nah, I'm all set over here. If you come up with a rebuttal that's actually substantive, let me know.
Your rebuttal is now president. Gj.
I'm not in a cult. I'm not obligated to worship these people or refrain from criricizing their many failures. I'll support the lesser evil, but I'm not going to glaze them.
I didn't vote for Trump. I grudgingly supported Harris. Try again, shitlib.
Shitlib? 😆😆😆
Yes, it's a common epithet for people spewing the kind of tribalist dumbfuckery you're parroting. Way to focus on that & not the part where I dismantled your inane assumption. You can go. You've earned yourself a mute.
You should take yourself over to X. Sounds more of a fit for you.
No you're just rightwing and are too much of a sepp to realise.
😆😆😆
I grudgingly supported Harris when she was running, but she ran an insufficient campaign & lost. I reserve the right to criticize her shortcomings, but you'll notice I did indicate quite clearly that she was a LESSER evil. Kindly hone your grasp of context clues & spare me the silly shitlib schtick
Are you happy with Trump?
Obviously not. I can despise fascists, & also refrain from getting wistful about mediocre centrist Democrats simultaneously. Clearly I'd prefer a paradigm where the options aren't terrible or apocalyptic.
You didn't have that option. I voted for Harris because she was the best person to be the next president
Yes. I'm aware. Hence me grudgingly supporting her at the time & reserving the right to criticize her for being a shitty candidate now. I'm not in a cult, so I can do that. Blind, unwavering devotion is not a requirement.
She would've listened to us and stopped support at some point, and she definitely wouldn't have disappeared people or endorsed having a gold statue of herself in Gaza. But also let's remember that the current prez's son in law wanted to develop property in that region last term.
I don't share your optimism about what she would have done in Gaza at all, but acknowledge Trump is objectively worse domestically. That's why I grudgingly supported Harris during the campaign. That does not shield her from criticism in the aftermath.
If she was going to close the checkbook on Israel, she needed to make that clear during the campaign when it might've made a difference.
It’s pointless arguing with these two. Dez is from Canada, so her “support” was probably just posting online during the election. They both keep conflating giving Harris a chance to change her position on Israel to supporting genocide and being a “shitlib”.
She literally told us to our faces she was going to continue Biden’s policies in Gaza. She was never going to listen to us. Come back to reality.
"I have to choose between the flu and ebola. I had flu once, and it really sucked. If ebola wins, well, how bad can it be?"
That's a disingenuous false equivalency & you know it.
I'm not glorifying her, by far, but choosing her opponent was not the way to change the system. Your whole system is falling apart because of him, and threatening to bring others down with it. You chose the worse evil because the lesser wasn't great.
The establishment wing of the Democratic party, (the people who take campaign bribes from corporations like big pharma, & the medical insurance racket, & who are bought off by AIPAC) are what created the conditions for Trump, in part by squashing progressives at every opportunity.
At no point did I in any way indicate that I supported her opponent. Assumptions won't serve you well here. I grudgingly supported Harris until she lost. I don't owe her anything at this point.
& Trump is a symptom of decades of neoliberal mediocrity. That's why he faked populism. His ascent would not have been possible under progressive Democrats. He is not the root cause of our problems, but a predictable outcome of decades of poor leadership.
Thank you! The entire system needs to be torn down and rebuilt 🤷♀️
Indeed. Or at the very least the Democratic party does. It's really disturbing how cultish & tribalistic people are over a party that frequently crushes progressive candidates & funds Republican opponents to defeat anyone left of dead centre, & holds us hostage by pretending to care about our rights
👏👏👏
My vote is always democratic and it will always be. It’s not my fault that the Republican and that loser as a president is in the White House sinking this country and is going to sink even more. It’s not my doing so let it sink.
China is actually seeking closer ties with Europe. Power does abhor a vacuum. Though I would probably have been happy to see that with or without the USA in the picture.
#shegotmyvote
Yes to all of your caption, and the fact that the election result was manipulated to hand power back to the felon. It was in the works all along, based on Trump's brazenly off the rails campaign rhetoric, and quite a few of his quotes that are tantamount to an admission of election tampering.
The apathy or Trump supporters among the younger generations with the Environment, Democracy at risk,is more shocking to me than that of the older voters with SS and Medicare at risk.
I would like to submit the following correction: ...but millions either could not be bothered to vote for a Black+South Asian woman... It's not that they were all indifferent about voting, it was that many didn't want him but couldn't bring themselves to vote for a woman.
If we wouldn't have been caught up in identity politics, Harris would have been at DOJ from day one. That would have made all the difference, I imagine. But no.
I am not a conspiracy nut, but I actually think we did elect Harris. Varied sources of proof are showing statistically impossible results in swing states.
...and where are our sane political and military leaders? Hello?! Sitting back watching what they built being destroyed. No question mark.
You people bitch and bitch and are probably proud of your convoluted reasons for staying home and pouting. There was no time for a primary, and Harris was a good candidate. Slam dunk: just don't stay home whining, and don't vote for a fascist.
My heart breaks when I see her picture 💔
pic unrelated, of course
Millions of Americans preferred the CRIMINAL over the LAW & ORDER candidate! How does that happen: 1) Americans love GOP crime? 2) American are clueless? 3) Americans are ignorant?
it was stolen. more votes were for harris.
We need her to start talking not hide.
This! I'm not impressed by her after-election behavior, which as far as I can see only extends to pleas for money. We need fighters.
She was rejected. How do you expect her to react?
Is this a serious question? Because if it’s bc her feelings were hurt then she never belonged in the White House. And if it was just a job and not a part of who she is to fight for this country then we needed to know that so we don’t waste time on her next round.
Three critical elections tomorrow. Florida's 1st district. Florida's 6th district. Wisconsin Supreme Court seat. The oligarchs can buy presidents, senators, and CEO's. But they can't buy the people. America has saved us before, now we save America. Vote.
buyers remorse for sure-we can still get this right-demand these violators of their oaths to protect all of us including our military members or resign or let us displace you!
And Trump and musk cheated. Kamala won but they stole the election.
Greg Palast has PROOF of the GOP & Charlie Kirk cheating for trump in this last election. Charlie had 40,000 white supremacists challenge millions of voters off from registration lists in red states & swing states. Musk cheated as well.
There's proof that the CORRUPT republicans used the word CHALLENGE as their excuse to toss millions of votes for Kamala! She won by abt 3 million votes but the GOP threw the paper ballots away or didn't count them. They are completely corrupt!
THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN election to choose a candidate to replace biden instead of obama and clooney picking one
Joyful Trouble, nice moniker. Bluesky Resistors! This original Gospel-style song examines the words of John Lewis, “Good Trouble,” and reflects on their relevance today. youtu.be/RAyZTy2pnPY?...
🍊💩 it's stripping away everything to protect marginalized Americans in favor of whatever the F Project 2025 is.
Orange rapist or a woman? What a hard choice it was. I am the most disgusted with those that did nothing. That didn't even bother to weigh in. We all rave about how great America is but can't go defend its greatness by voting? Sad sad sad maddy mad mad
As with Hilary, so hurtful to think of the alternative we had.
America is reminded of this DAILY since Nov 6, 2024 😭😭
I hope she runs again. She can win. ❤️ I am of the mind that she won in 24 too.
That’d why feminism is not longer enough. Misandry only
Given all the evidence of voter manipulation, let’s not blame the American people for this fiasco. Yes, millions voted for the orange monster, but also … Millions are stripped of their right to vote thru felony charges. Millions are deregistered without adequate safeguards. …
Tens of Thousands were sent home without voting because of Russian bomb threats. And to top it all off, there is strong statistical evidence that votes were flipped in the swing states. And yet, the Democratic Leadership refuses to investigate any of this.
And the USA will never enjoy what they once had.
When I ask ppl why they didn’t vote for her I hear the same exact reason, “I don’t trust her. She doesn’t have enough experience.” Me thinks they are all really reciting the script Fox gave them.
Same old men > women tropes. “Women are too emotional and can’t be trusted.”
Everyone says "genocide" when asked, what the fuck are you talking about
Not enough experience? Lawyer, prosecutor, senator and VP. Against a deranged geriatric intent on the total dismantling of this country? Hogwash! Racism, misogyny and illiteracy.
Relative Good ProDemocracy vs black incinerating Evil. That's what it was and if anyone didn't see that they should just join the idiots on the other side of the aisle.
First person I actually know with buyer’s remorse told me he thought Trump was the lesser of 2 evils. Not bright, listened to the propaganda and is now struggling to accept what he helped happen. There are lots more like him. Doesn’t help now but might if we get another chance 🤷🏽♀️
I feel like if the issues , and sometimes minor differences in position were at issue ,I could understand. If you have buyer's remorse re Trump you need to think about going back to community college.
These people were lucky to make it out of high school. That, combined with the HUGE misinformation campaign made them believe all the lies about Harris. It’s still inexcusable but we all need to learn from it to prevent it, if we get another chance.
I didn't make it out of high school, not to brag. A lot of people don't understand or ever learn that Everything Is Political. Your body is political, the carrots in your salad are political.
“Not making it out of high school” is a description that obviously doesn’t apply to everyone that didn’t graduate. Using your brain, educating yourself, staying aware and questioning your representatives is essential and separates you from those who don’t grow.
But that's not how Fox news spun it and the idiots all watch Fox 24/7. No critical thinking skills, just an embrace of the hate, racism and othering.
Exactly right.
Yep. I naively thought things were better and people were more accepting. I realize now that it was just that they hid all the hate and resentment until maga encouraged them to bring it out and celebrate it.
Bullshit. USA was the laughing stock of Earth during Obiden. Ya'll just don't like that Trump is doing what Obozo never had a clue or the balls to do.
Pathetic.
Where is she now?! NOW is when we need her most.
Or, they cheated, and no one is going to do anything about it because they are afraid of looking crazy like the other side.
Very true but mourning will not help. Sane Americans must raise up from their arses and start working for the mid-term now. Get all these "apolitical" to vote for change. It's not easy but it's doable.
We miss you. 🥰
Next time hold a primary and you might get buy in from the voting base. If there is a next time, because of this screw up.
Weird people
Running a Dem candidate selection process which many thought was fixed, while simultaneously supplying the bombs for a genocide in Gaza may not have been the best election strategy for maximizing voter turnout.
Or couldn’t deal with a woman as POTUS. Come on…. Do better next time. (If there’s going to be one) It’s 2025!
Hashtag Disney
Or their votes were wiped out because of voter fraud!
I still grieve this loss. Harris will always be Madam President!
HE STOLE THE ELECTION. AHE WAS NEVER GOING TO WIN. ELON HAD RESULTS AND CHANGE THEM.
bsky.app/profile/leco...
also, gerrymandering. But also, (F)elon fucked with the voting machines
"What's the worst that could happen?" "Well, she was really preachy. I felt like she was looking down on me..." When asked to pick between crazy and preachy, one voter: "Crazy... Because ‘crazy’ doesn’t look down on me,” she said. “‘Preachy’ does.” We can never let these people forget.
Yes and we’re documenting everyone that did you know for when the time comes.
The election was rigged by Musk/Trump/Putin. I saw the crowds everywhere, the energy, the A list celebs then witnessed his sour mouthed mess of a run in.
A list celebs endorsements had become a double sword knife, especially under the current cultural wars. Many of the Hollywood celebrities are seeing as too woke or too corrupt.
Treasonous tRump & Musk have admitted it!
I agree, there were too many millions of dollars floating around in the election, I’m sure some of it found its way into the pockets of those counting ballots.
What is she talking about?
It is the Democrat's own fault. Who the hell got the idea that Americans was ready for a female president? And a colored one on top of that? Those that put her forward did not know their own country.
What year are you from? “Colored” ????? Jesus Christ grow UP.
But I agree. We should celebrate what makes America great. Obama was not black, he was interracial. Kamal is of Black and South Asian heritage. But we are ingrained in dichotomy of black (or colured) vs white. While the multiracial population is the fastest-growing demographic group in the US.
OK. colour then theconversation.com/kamala-harri...
“Person/woman of color” is much more acceptable than “colored,” which has historical context making it demeaning and derogatory. If English isn’t your first language, then the misstep is understandable.
Of course, Trump would not be president if it was not for European-American woman (The problem is that who ever your generation and gender voted for, you are so ingrained in your black vs white, person of colour, or whatever that your bias is part of the problem. Always astonished me about Americans
This country is 100% full of racist dirtbags. Any American that says otherwise is living in an alternate reality. I voted for Harris, not that it mattered :(
Maybe just stick with writing about fish.
That the focus is on using "colored" instead of the message (that people are not ready) kind of underscores my point. But you are right, I did not start this account for political discussions (of these kind) but to champion the conservation of biological diversity. So I leave it with that.
We have the opportunity to fix something that should never have needed to be fixed. Two by-elections coming up in Florida and one in New Mexico is it? Then there's Wisconsin on the first. Then there are the mid-terms. How much of what's left will trump burn down by then?
😢so sad for your country.
or their votes were suppressed or invalidated... look for more of that in 2026
Musk & Trump are eliminating Social Security. “Donald Trump and Elon Musk were exposed in a damning report on Social Security as they seek to dismantle the program Musk calls a 'Ponzi scheme.' Dina Doll reacts.” youtu.be/HNgHRQAo-yA?...
Or Musk and others fixed the election!
Yes, but democrats shot their own foot, twice. Firstly putting forward Hilary, who a lot distrusted, then covering up the issues with Biden. If you lie to the public, the undecided are confused. Whilst Trump told his supporters what they wanted. Democrats need to think about people and their issues.
She was supporting or at best doing nothing to stop a genocide in Gaza
The election was stolen, plain and simple. The orange turd and his cringy muskrat have openly admitted it. The dems who could have done something didn’t. They did not fight back.
💯💯💯
Kamala wasn’t even nominated via primary. Don’t act like you care about voting and elections in any real sense
Republicans did this with their greed. Impeach Trump. Fire Musk. Charge the Trump Administration leadership with Treason.
Please don’t make it sound like the democrats did everything they could. The dems screwed us all over by pretending Joe was fine and then by not allowing the people to choose their own candidate.
Yes there is truth to this but I believe the election being bought was already in the bag from the beginning
She has a kind aura. Her purpose was to stand for justice. I still believe she will have some purpose in the times to come.
She supported arming and funding Israel's genocide and using prisoners as slave labor. She laughed at the idea of funding more schools and less prisons.
When did she say that? Before or after she decided to run for president. Need proof or it didn’t happen.
www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2020/0...
Dude, that’s over 11 years ago. She could have changed her stance
Uh huh.
Once again, do you think people don’t change their stances?
I don't think Harris changed their stance on this issue. I also recall someone asking her about her criticism of Biden when she was selected as VP, and her response was "I was campaigning"
She wouldn't have needlessly wrecked the federal workforce and sabotaged life-saving research like the current admin is, but I am under no illusions about her being "kind."
She’s allowed to criticize him. IRS part of their duties as VP
Dreamily, drool glistening in a long strand from my mouth: “She would have smiiiiiled as more hospitals and schools were incinerated in Gaza”
Yeah gaza is doing so much better now 🤔
her vp gleefully supported the annexation of west bank, shut the fuck up
So you get Putin's puppet who wants to turn Gaza into Las Vegas, good job...
After over a year of enthusiastic support from Biden. You blue MAGA types always ignore that Biden’s support turned Gaza into a graveyard long before Trump took office. We tried to tell you before but you kept ignoring us. Now you are trying to gaslight us. We know better.
America was once again deprived of COMPETENT, COMPASSIONATE leadership because of the sickening undercurrent of RACISM, SEXISM and IGNORANCE that was not only the voting population but the leadership of the Democratic Party.. Kamala Harris may have been our LAST..BEST..hope to save AMERICA.
Or the election was hacked by the #DOGE gang using a combination of computer algorithms, massive voter purges and massive voter intimidation with bomb threats in Dem areas in seven swing states. The two ringleaders certainly had motive. Both were #billionaires heading for prison. But go on.
She would have been a great POTUS. Eternal SHAME on America.
I’d be interested to know who this intelligent, kind and worthy candidate was.
The cheater cheated
I’m with you, Anna. He cheated, just like he did in 2016 and like he tried to do in 2020
It took them 4 years and and the richest guy in the world but they food a way to win without the votes www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhUd...
There were so many anomalies in the election. No election is called in four hours, plus the ballot boxes were sabotaged and burned in Democratic districts, bomb threats called in, Musk selling votes, hacking voting machines, split tickets, in all the swing states, etc.—yeah, right, he was elected.🙄
exactly
I’ve believed this since 2016 as well. Criminals are always scheming
For real. Are we supposed to think that after he got caught cheating in 2020 he would go legit and not try it again in 2024? He’s a grifter and a criminal. He doesn’t know how to be honest. He thinks it’s for suckers.
I’m still confused how he was even able to run? Sending you strength from Canada. We’ll get through this!!
I guess we can thank Merrick Garland for that. Thank you for sending strength—we can really use it!💙
Cite Some Evidence that helped you form your OPINION!
It’s heartbreaking because the world watched us almost choose empathy, progress, and stability—and then watched millions turn their backs on it. Trust is earned, and we’re burning it fast. But the fight isn’t over. We build again, with truth, with action, and with each other.
You are right. We're laughing at you now So you can't have such a stupid government as you Americans have.
You have every right to be stunned by what’s happening here—many of us are too. But just know: millions of us are fighting like hell every day to protect democracy, dignity, and truth. Don’t count us out. This story isn’t over.
En laske ketään pois Tottakai minä ymmärrän, että Amerikassa on myös ihmisiä, jotka kantaa vastuunsa. . People are dying in Ukraine every day and your president is just playing with their lives.
You're right to be angry. People are dying in Ukraine every day, and our leadership is treating it like a political game. But I promise you—millions of us here are fighting back. We're speaking out, organizing, and demanding better. We see what's happening, and we refuse to look away.
exactly.
I try to not think about what life could have been like.
Where is she? Why don't we hear her voice? What about Biden and Obama. They were the voices of Democrats and now they are silent. They were leaders and now they are invisible.
You'll never convince that Musk and Trump didn't cheat to win ALL the swing states.
bsky.app/profile/ally...
This world knows the deal. bsky.app/profile/jcth...
I bet you wouldn't say that if you were a Palestinian.
They allowed the perfect to be the enemy of the good. Yes, there are many things that the dems need to do differently, but where we are now we may never have another chance to try and make the good more perfect.
Oh, oh. Just read a few of the comments and it looks like the BOTS have arrived. 👺👺
Pretty sure that your country just wasn't ready for a female president. Especially a black woman. Your lose, and unfortunately, ours as well. 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇨🇦
Or had their votes suppressed, discarded and possibly altered. I don't believe Americans willingly chose this path of global humiliation & domestic destruction. @electiontruth.bsky.social @gregpalast.bsky.social and others are doing crucial forensic work on the '24 Election & finding foul plays.
The greatest fail in American history
Wow. So much hate and blame. it must be nice to be perfect and have all the answers . I thought Blue Sky was going to be different than Twitter/X, but, sadly, lots of vicious comments. You can disagree with someone without being downright nasty. Isn’t there enough nastiness in this world?
Sexism and racism run deep.
And it’s clear as DAY who perpetuates this. Start with YOUR community
To all of you who could vote, but didn't bother: I hope it hurts really bad.
The second time fear of electing a woman overpowered the rights of everyday people. #magamadness #nojusticeforall
AND musk manipulated the data.
Do we know that? Trump and musk would hack the election if we could and Biden and Harris refused to demand an investigstion
Oh gosh I didn’t want to trouble by the cackling joy.
Well there was that one thing.... Seriously, we must find the moral compass now we failed to then. It's the right thing to do.
I think she won and they did something with the voting machines in key ridings. Its not just me saying it either.. there are irregularities that a simple audit could have cleared up
Psst #TrumpCheated
Or Trump had 4 years and the unlimited resources of the richest man in the world to figure out how to change the vote totals…
As a European, no we don't trust you anymore. But as much as I find Kamala personally pleasing, she was never the answer to Trump. It was obvious. And Hillary was even worse. The Dems need to stop blocking Sanders & AOC, they're the only ones interested in change. The status quo has failed.
We are a country full of people too overworked or too lazy to bother to know what is happening in our own country. I’m not sure we can be trusted to make the right choice. We’ve made the wrong one so easily so many times now.
It's like that almost everywhere now. Working all the time and then being numbed by cheap entertainment & given loans to feel like we can afford to buy stuff. It's interesting that capitalism is never scrutinized in the same way anything with the slight hint of socialism is...
USA is not ready for this. Don't make recommendations or even critics with your European eyes to a country with a different culture and history.
Well... Is USA ready for fascism? You seem to follow the culture there all right...
I mean... Trump literally follows Mussolini's text book...
Have you lived there? Do you understand the importance of the Christian vote? How long did it take for Europeans to reach their level of democracy? Did you study US history? Do you think the US can do it so much faster?
I didn't realise I was going to be scrutinized like if I were a policy adviser. I'm a person on BlueSky writing my opinion just like everyone else. I haven't lived there but we have a family in the US. I understand the Christian vote& isn't the US stuffed with Europeans? What's YourSuggestionThen?
Tactical instead of lecturing. Yes there are huge issues with the Dems electoral base but elections are not the right time to change the mind of people on these issue (e.g. Palestine, DEI). You first win the elections and then your use these hard-earned 4 years of opportunity to do the right things!
How will you win the election against Trump (if you even have one the next time)? People are clearly prepared to put up with a lot in order to break the status quo which has completely failed them over& over...
First of all, he did not win. He cheated. No way he could get 7 swing states Grand Slam with only 1.7% pop vote lead. Last time was Reagan with > 30% lead. Second, Trump will lose congress even before half term. He's self destroying. Third don't confuse have-not campus activism with silent majority.
Well, I will believe he cheated when I see evidence. The rest... I guess we will see. I hope you're right but I'm very sceptical. And even if the Dems win with whoever and carry on as usual, another Trump will come. We have seen this in history & you guys are not as exceptional as you think you are.
Trump admitted casually twice (the day before inauguration and then when hosting FIFA president). Otherwise, start here (15mn). www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDWw...
Christians in the US read the Bible literally (Protestant heritage) and think of Israel as a sister country. They're totally biased. Fox network is very powerful and exacerbates fear. People feel threatened in their daily lives & look for a strong leader to defend them (like sheep lookfora shepherd)
Also education!.
Yes. They need hope as well. I think Sanders has that and clearly many Americans do too. He gave Hillary a run for her money and is even more popular now, I believe...
Rural states are losing their way of life because agriculture productivity progress means less people are needed. So, school and hospital disappear. They are close knit communities where everybody votes the same (they actually used to be all democrats (and racist) after the civil war).
Neither of them would win a national election.
Not if you allow the right to drive the narrative. But look, Hillary&Kamala are establishment figures whom nobody in Europe would ever call 'the left'.Yet Trump gets to call them 'far left' and 'communists' and people believe that? Well, if that's the narrative you might as well go for the real deal
I have seen polls cited where American people when asked about specific policies seem to be much more keen on some form of socialism than they're aware of... They're scaring you with communism when there are so many social democracies in the world that are hugely successful& have happy citizens
This!
Well said
Instead of electing a president who would have made us proud to see on the world stage, we elect someone who makes us feel embarrassed and ashamed
Apparently Megyn Kelly is excited about the Trump presidency and is glad she could get him the women vote. She was truly scared what Harris would have done to the country. Smh. Harris would have made it easier to sleep at night.
Madam Karma is catching up with them.
yeah, where is she now?
So true. Kamala was the most qualified presidential candidate since the 1950s yet many saw her otherwise.
Indeed. It's trying to cover up the misogyny with "not qualified". That and racism. P.S. you have a possible typo in your profile, your divine majesty. Should be 'deity', since I assume you are not dieting! :D
Thank you FoD. I'm listening. I'll get my person to fix that right away.
Ribbit! *nod*
Did we or was it stolen? electiontruthalliance.org
Don’t blame me…I voted for her all the way! I wasn’t drinking the kool aid nor had no intention. We need her!
I'm not saying racism, sexism and oligarchs pulling strings didn't have a lot to do with it but the democrats made it too easy. She was the wrong choice, as much as I would LOVE to see a black woman as president.
1 of 2 Wholeheartedly disagree. The American people got to choose between a lying bigot fascist and a zionist starfucker who was more interested in cozying up to the Cheneys than listening to what mattered to progressives. It was a terrible choice.
And a convicted felon, sexual predator. But the price eggs
Those who didn't vote are just as responsible for the orange overlord getting in as the MAGA
I just want to cry every time I see her. We could have had so much better. Humanity. Safety. Respect. We had so much work to do still, but there was hope, now.....
90 million stupid or apathetic registered voters did not vote in the 2024 presidential election! THEY are to blame even more than the 77 million trumpers, for the USA being ruled by a rapist con artist tax fraud insurrectionist POS!
Or did they???
Where is she now?
MAGAs and Millions of Others chose Hatred & Racism over choosing the Best & Most Qualified Candidate & Accomplished Candidate to ever run for the Presidency.
The whole situation saddens me.
Don't forget, the election was rigged, by voter suppression, by outright bribes and possibly rigged at the ballot box.
There was a lot wrong with her. The top five things wrong with her was: 1. She is a woman 2. She is honest 3. She is intelligent 4. She is black 5. She is fair ( Ex prosecutor) and difficult to 'manage' by the .1%
It’s the could not be bothered to vote for me
Lazy fuckers just sat it out. I grew up with people that never voted cuz why bother. Well now we know. Bother people bother.
Boy, we sure screwed the pootch on THAT one, didn't we?
Tbh I think it goes deeper than that. Having Harris wouldn't have solved the malaise that US is suffering from (and rWorld). Capitalism has fucked us all over, Harris wouldn't have stopped that. We all need more radical change.
Yeah I don't know about this. She was clearly the better candidate, but that doesn't make her a great candidate.
I don’t think Kamala was perfect, I suspect she would have been an old school Democrat like Schumer. However, I would vote for a lip-service-do-nothing-Dem over the orange nazi regime any day!!! Too bad 30 million Americans couldn’t bother to vote.
I proudly voted for Kamala I miss her and Joe So much America is a Disgrace right now
Yes. We know. We all know. What’s the point? Going to wallow in it or do something to fight back?
The DNC should have had a primary or ran someone people liked and respected.
K. Harris mistake was listening to dem. advisors. She ran a terrible campaign in swing states. Her convention & debate message was clear: Trump is unfit, not serious, & a danger. Had she hammered that home using his own words she would have won. Instead she was sucked into a Fox News storyline
The vote was manipulated. If we don’t figure out how soon democrats will never regain power www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhUd...
