Turns out Republican lite isn't popular, who knew
They even have Trump winning the popular vote. So Harris is doing worse then Hillary. I knew them campaigning with Liz Cheny was a fucking mistake. The Democrats can't help but move to the right. Instead of trying to get more progressive votes they rather try court Republicans. Republicans are nazi wouldn't surprise me to learn that Liz in co were really Trumper doing this to help him. .
Doesn't help when half million morons voted for Jill Stein. The fucking Russian backed politician.
Trump winning the popular vote would be hilarious.
Btw, I am not being petty. I am Ukrainian so we got a lot at stake. But that being said most Ukrainians (and the government) thought Trump would win.
I voted for Stein lol
Your part problem then moron.
Whoah, easy there cowpoke!
I want you to know that the dems could have had my vote. I walked my ballot in the snow to the polling station.
I do not vote for genocide. I do not vote for conservatives.
You just killed off all of Palestinian. When Israel kills them all they will have you to thank. You have blood on your hands. Hope your happy and smig with your throw away vote. Fucking traitor. Stien came all out and Russia all but said they install her to help Trump. Speaking of which you just killed off Ukraine as well congratulations.
My hands are clean. If I'm a traitor to your genocide candidate I wear that with pride.
Everyone's hands are clean. The workers at Raytheon producing weapons that kills Palestinians, the people who finance that through taxes, whoever flies the plane or steers the ship delivering the weapons to Israel and even the American soldiers training Israeli forces with the new weapons.
Everyone of you can give plenty of reasons why they're not at fault. My German ancestors did the same in 1945. They "didn't know" or they couldn't have done anything against it or they voted for the social democrats in the last election or or or...
What a delightful comment. Claiming I am a Nazi while your vote was for genocide.
Considering my instance is registered on ".de," you have 3 guesses as to what my nationality is and who I voted for in the US election.
And I did not claim you are a Nazi. I claimed that you cannot absolve yourself from responsibility if your country commits or aids a genocide.
I can and I will. I had no choice in the matter and I hold no power.
And so claimed my German ancestors.
Yet none of them fled the country, none of them joined the small, albeit existing resistance, none of those conscripted deserted the military and none of them claimed to have responsibility. Curious, isn't it? Everybody seemed to have clean hands because only a few thousand people directly orchestrated the Holocaust. The fact that it could only happen due to both mass support and mass toleration is ignored.
you literally did both of those things by casting a ballot for stein
Oh?
Harris would have lost even if Stein wasn’t in the election.
Doesn't matter. They need someone to blame.
— Harris voter in California
Voting because of one issue is exactly how you get manipulated congrats
To think that there's only one issue with the neoliberal democrats is so sad...truly. Don't mistake focusing on Palestine with that being the only issue. Maybe if they didn't like the wall so much or had any progressive economic policies or environmental ones, we'd talk about it. They are serving the oligarchs with a few social progressive policies, that's too little, sorry
Lol. I would have voted for Harris if she'd come out for an arms embargo. I wouldn't have believed her but I would have voted for her. There are many reasons I would not have voted for her.
Ah yes, Shill Stein the Russian stooge. Good job moron
Did Rachel maddow tell you that
Nah, having more than 1 brain cell told me that
There's nothing Republican Lite about accepting an endorsement from Chenney, that's full strength Republican.
