I’m now applying this to people who not only voted for Trump, but those who didn’t vote for Kamala because they had purity rules. I’m tired of them too.

They are the same bunch who couldn't vote for Hillary and reliably assured all of us that Roe vs. Wade would never be overturned. And look what those purity rules brought us.

Harris voter here. Harris tried to be a centrist and lost. Y’all ever think after trying to force the “pragmatic” vote that maybe it’s a losing strategy? If we won I’d take it, but I’d rather lose demanding better than lose settling for breadcrumbs. The pragmatic voting argument lost to Trump twice.

I think you have two choices and you vote for the best of the two choices you have. If you didn’t vote for Kamala, you were wrong. I’m not a political strategist. I’m just a voter who had two choices just like everyone else. One would’ve been infinitely better - to infinity and beyond better

I think if the upthread Harris voter didnt vote but spent less of their time talking other people out of voting for Harris we might be in a better position today
