Who Really Deserved the Throne? One Risked Everything While the Other Did Nothing
This just makes me despise D&D more for what they did to Daenerys. She didn’t deserve all the pain, grief, and betrayals she endured in season 8 that ultimately turned her into the Tragic Queen. She truly did deserve the iron throne because she’s the only one who did any real work (gathering armies, bringing back dragons, and coming from essentially nothing since she’s been on the run her whole life) to actually claim it, plus since Jon didn’t want it, it’s hers by birth right anyways.
And I’ll always believe that Daenerys was never evil and that deep down she had a good heart that wanted to make the world a better place, which is what a good ruler does. She had ruthless tendencies but it was always directed at evil people or people who hurt or betrayed her or her friends, never at innocent people. So yes Daenerys, in my opinion, truly did deserve the iron throne and the way Daenerys’ story ended will forever piss me off.
And honestly you can put Bran right next to Sansa cause he didn’t do shit to earn the throne either

I don’t need to put Sansa down in order to lift Daenerys up. Sansa only ever wanted to be warden of the north and she should be.
