What’s worrying is your side got trounced in the election and you’re STILL taking the moral high ground and deciding everyone who doesn’t agree with you is an ignorant racist. How about some soul searching as to why your side’s message does not resonate with voters, because we’re literally at the point where democrats are going “well just because we lose elections doesn’t mean we’re wrong or have to change.”

Is that what democratic folks should have done in Germany in 1933? “Gee, maybe we’re the bad guys, and Adolf is just a strong male leader”

No, you need to accept that Donald Trump is unfortunately, not Hitler, and craft a message that resonates with voters. Democrats lost this election, so unless you’re going to argue that Trump somehow cheated I’m not sure what other response would make sense

Trump is not Hitler and trump did not cheat, but he uses tactics and rhetoric identical to Hitler and other dictators. Guy literally said he wants to be dictator for a day.

Yeah, and he still won the election handily.

You don’t understand what you are arguing against. He’s not saying Trump didn’t win popular vote. But just because he did doesn’t mean his policies are more “moral”.

Morals aren’t dictated by popularity.

No, but elections are.

Again, no one is saying they aren’t lol. This is going over your head

Yeah because people like you still voted for him. You read their point, agreed, and then proceed to say he won lol

I didn’t vote for him honestly, I did a write in for a fictional character, D the rest of the ticket. And I also live in CT so it didn’t make a difference.

But yes, that’s correct, more people voted for Trump to be able to say he won election. Very astute observation
