Yup. Dems should not have strong armed H. Clinton through the primaries in 2016. EVERYTHING would have been different.
Yes, 100% of the blame for the world we live in falls on HRC and DWS. None of the fault lies with the people that are actively tearing the country apart, the party members enabling them, or the idiots that voted for it...or voted third party...or abstained from voting entirely...in 2024, despite being told multiple times exactly what would happen. Sometimes even straight from the horeses mouth.
Nope. It's all because of the Dems. They did this. Those bastards.
You're being sarcastic, but yes, part of this problem goes back to that. History has proven that inventing superdelegates to subvert democracy in their own primary process was an absolutely horrible idea. It was also a fascist one.
When there's a rabid dog running around loose and its owner refuses to put it down, you don't blame the dog, you blame the owner. The dog is a lost cause; only the owner has agency to change anything.
So following this analogy, you blame the voters? Or the citizens (including those who didn't vote)?
I'm just explaining why people aren't wasting their time talking about the group that's a lost cause.
You mentioned blame though, and it seems like people are somehow putting the blame on the person holding the gun trying to put down the rabid dog.
They're putting the blame on the person for refusing to pull the trigger.
You voted for us to not pull the trigger.
Why are you lying? I did no such thing.
Quit trying to scapegoat everybody pissed off at the Democrats' fecklessness as third-party or non-voters. Schumer et al. need to get it through their thick skills that the base itself is fed up with their corrupt bullshit too.
Plural you
Imagine thinking politicians are owed votes no matter what they do or promise. You're beyond cooked. Here's hoping the Dems and Republicans accelerate the US to a speedy demise.
Yes, let others suffer en masse. What a fine example of smug selfishness; perfectly adjacent to MAGA.
Can't wait for Gavin Newsom to decide it's his turn next, despite having less chance of winning than a snowball has of not vaporizing in hell.
They not only broke their own primary process, but they got sued for it in Florida and argued it was their right to do so.
Patently absurd, but they did it and got away with it.
They just need to stop crowning candidates.
Once more with this foolish narrative, Hillary lost to Bernie handily throughout the primary, my own vote for the man be damned.
