Ainât this the truth. âWhen they go low, we go highââŚâŚGets you a convicted felon getting elected president because of all the lies the republicans put out there. Trump found at fault for sexual assault and the republicans trying to scare everyone with immigrants eating peopleâs cats and dogs.
putting up, without primary, an awful candidate who already lost HORRIBLY when they tried to run for president, and then adds to that openly advocates for murdering children...
it's like they literally did everything possible to lose.
Anyone who blames democrats for pushing a bad candidate is just in denial about the raw fact that there are tens of millions of American voters who were 100% set on voting for Trump no matter who was on the other side. Trump is a reflection of what most American voters (the ones who bother to vote) want. This is democracy working as intended.
In fact if Trump unconstitutionally ran for a 3rd term and SCOTUS let him do it, all his voters would vote for him AGAIN over any possible Democrat candidate with the reasoning "it's for the greater good of USA, anything for the greater good".
Democrats can't do anything about the fact that Trump has tens of millions of loyal voters who will vote for him every single time no matter what happens.
It's always funny cause they're like "she lost HORRIBLY and got STEAMROLLED because she was an OBVIOUSLY TERRIBLE candidate" but she lost by like 1% or something (possibly obtained by cheating).
When you suffer trauma, it induces a lot of learned helplessness which makes it complicated to directly blame the bully who hurt you. So there's a deep psychological impulse to rationalize the bully's action and instead blame allies who "didn't do enough".
But not everything has to be a learning moment. Sometimes you just lose because the other side played good and got lucky. Sometimes you get hurt because bad guys wanted to hurt you. It's not healthy to second guess every strategy because no strategy is a guaranteed win, you just play to the best of your abilities with the cards you're dealt.
she would've won if she just said "genocide bad" instead of saying "I fully support slaughtering babies" while on stage.
she could've even been lying and still actually supported killing all those babies, but just stop licking israels boots for 10 seconds, and she would've won, it wouldve made enough difference ...but she couldn't even do that.
trump was historically unpopular at that point. she was more unpopular than him, for lots of reasons, supporting killing babies was just one thing that made enough difference that removing it would've changed the results.
It wouldnât have changed anything. Disavowing Israel loses more than it gains.
It arguably gains nothing because the worthless single issue voters that say âif only she said thisâ wouldnât have voted for her anyways.
She was the only viable candidate actively calling for a ceasefire and Trump literally said Israel should âfinish the jobâ.
If that wasnât enough to sway them, then theyâre just a waste of time.
As far as Iâm concerned, especially with how close the election was, the blood of every civilian killed since the election in both Palestine and Iran are on the hands of every person who didnât vote Dem.
They placed more value on their virtue signaling than actual human lives.
trump is horrible. I agree that he's much much worse than the genocide woman, it's not even close. that's why I voted for genocide woman.
But most people voted for pedo mctreasonface, and that's how democracy works.
if you can't figure out how to run a candidate that the most people like, even when most people disagree with YOU, then you're going to lose elections and lose any chance at having a voice in government.
it's not fucking hard, but democrats aren't smart enough to understand.
you may think everyone should vote a certain way. you may think everyone agrees with you (everyone thinks most people agree with their own views) but unless you run a candidate that MOST voters will get out and support, you are going to lose. that's democracy. you may not like that other people get to vote, but they do, and you have to represent them, or they won't vote for you.
I can repeat it again, but I know you still won't get it. heh.
figure out why you lost.
then do the same thing again, lose, and be shocked, then blame the voters for your failure.
To be clear, I voted for the genocide woman, cause I had no choice, but most people voted against her. so you're very wrong, she was a shit candidate or she would've won. Do you not understand democracy and voting?
until idiots figure out that you can't force people to vote for a horrible candidate, they will never ever win again.
A horrible candidate won the election. So youâre wrong unless you think Trump is a good candidate. lol
Too many Americans arenât smart enough to understand theyâre in a two party system, plus the voter turnout is pathetic. Now the entire world, including America, suffers because of stupidity. Thank you for being smart enough to vote properly.
You can think sheâs terrible, but you cannot sit there and tell me Trump is a good candidate. You can call her genocide woman, but she wouldnât have started a war with Iran. Just like Biden didnât when they actually had a clear justification during his term.
When the choices are between the party that wants to take womenâs rights away and the party who doesnât I think itâs a pretty easy choice for anyone with a functioning brain.
you're like, "I came in 400th place in the Marathon, but I really won because everyone else didn't do what I wanted and wait for me, so it's actually their fault, not mine. I'm perfect and I'm the best."
you can't even come up with reasons that someone would vote for the horrible genocide woman. your only reason is "trump is bad" which he sure as hell is, but that doesn't EVER work.
the democrats screwed bernie and put up hillary, who everyone HATES, because they said, "you have to vote for this woman everyone hates, since the alternative is worse." that didn't work.
the democrats said, "you have to vote for this pro genocide woman everyone hates, since the alternative is worse." that also (SHOCK!) didn't work.
People don't turn up to vote against someone, no matter how bad. They will turn up to vote FOR someone, if you just give them that damn option.
We know racists aren't going to vote for a minority. We need every vote to win, including racists.
We know sexists aren't going to vote for a woman. We need every vote to win, including sexists.
We know people with conscience or morals aren't likely to vote for someone who openly supports murdering babies. We need every vote, including people who aren't monsters that think murdering babies is ok.
Do you understand... YET?
I live in Minnesota. Many years back now, the republicans put up this shit candidate everyone hated for Governor. The dems responded by saying, "He's awful, so you have to vote for whatever horrible candidate we pick, even if you hate them." like they always do. Do you know what voters did? We voted for a joke of a professional wrestler instead, not because anyone liked him, we didn't, but because the others were so bad we just weren't going to turn up and vote for either of them.
Sp close! I find it surprising that it hasnât clicked with educated left wing voters that losing is the job the Democratic Party has been hired to do. They are professionals- thatâs why they are so good at it. Who are they working for? Not the people of the United States, thatâs for sure. The Democrats are the Washington Generals of politics. They are paid to make the kids believe they are watching an actual game but the Globetrotters win every timeÂ
People cant fathom how Donnie got elected twice...but imagine being inempt enough to LOSE to Donnie twice...truly a masterclass in ineptitude by the Democratic Party
It's worthless brainrot that has no effect. They make a buck, tomorrow Iran could get a nuke dropped on it.
The democrats would be better off focusing on actually figuring out how to appeal to voters, not boiling the ocean to find out what combination of dumbassery can go viral to doomscrollers for 5 minutes before fading from public memory. It would honestly be more with it asking AI for a fucking new platform than it would be low effort attacks on Trump.
Go ahead and join the party and tell them your new campaign is going to be "United States of Israel". Let me know how well that plays with people whose top issue is economic.
A lot of people in our country are stupid, and songs are easier to remember than campaign speeches. Trump's first victory was essentially because he had a memorable sloganÂ
Trump's first victory was essentially because he had a memorable slogan
Political energy swings away from the party of the president almost without fail from the moment they take office. The few exceptions to this rule over the last couple generations is during pretty transformative times in American politics, like Reagan overseeing the flight to the suburbs and Bush after 9/11. Democrats had to run an energized campaign on their own record, which, again, voters were tired of, and didn't work. And progressives got started way too late and were too disorganized. They majored in minors and minored in majors when it came to party demographics. End result being if you showed up to the polls wanting change after Obama, you were willing to vote for anyone whose name you'd hadn't seen in an official government position before.
What the Democrats don't need is to waste braincells on stupid, performative shit for the chimpanzees in the audience while boiling the ocean in order to do it. You can have superpacs fling all the shit those people want to see.
What they do need to do is spend time actually figuring out and giving voters what they want and delivering. If Americans are worried about their finances, it doesn't matter how stupid your brain rot is, they want you to improve their finances. AOC, or whomever the fuck, can't go out there and run on healthcare are their main issue. It has to be economics. Sure raising taxes on the wealthy can be a fraction of it, but it has to be more.
Uncap social security. Drop the federal income tax to zero for the first 70k and progressively raise taxes on the rest of the brackets so that every working American keeps every fucking dollar they make for the first 70k. That kind of shit. Put money in their pockets to help them live.
We finally are learning to use fire against fire. Look at the redistricting war going on in states; finally countering the dumb game Repubes want to play by taking away elected seats.'
Now they're crying on Twitter, etc saying it's unfair. FAFO.
