    The problem is that enough voters saw this feckless and recklessness and said “Yes! This is what we need more of in this country!”

    So we kind of asked for this, didn’t we?

      Some people asked for this. Most did not.
      Of the 63.7% of people that actually voted, 49.8% voted for Trump, and 48.3% for Harris.

      So 30-something percent of America asked for this.

        When are Americans going to figure this out?: 63.7% voted, the other 36.3% don’t fucking matter. By not voting they said “we are okay with this”.

        49.8% (more if you include the RFK voters) of the people who mattered voted for this, and those that didn’t vote are complicit whether they like it or not.

          Some of the people who didn’t vote had their right to vote suppressed (typically by right wing actions)

          My lawyer tells me it would have been illegal to go around red neighborhoods and put up flyers saying like “To protect election integrity, Republican voters are to vote on Wednesday”.
