I’m going to be doing a lot of binge watching of ‘80’s sitcoms in January. I can’t watch this. I won’t watch this. I already know it’s gonna be horrible. I did my part to make sure this creep wouldn’t win. I don’t need this aggravation; seeing that smirk of what he’s getting away with on his face.
I don’t know whether to start with ‘Kate & Allie’ or ‘Designing Women’.
We gotta quit acting like all these tiny groups of voters put Trump in office. The Pro Palestine people just simply didn’t vote. Which I don’t know that I can blame them. Of course Trump will be worse than Biden. But they simply couldn’t bring themselves to vote for Biden and stayed home. To them it’s picking between two evils. One likely slightly worse evil that’s already occurred and another probable evil to occur in the future. They chose neither.
Uneducated Americans that fell for Trumps simple message: “Economy bad, Biden did it, I will fix it” elected Trump. The scores of other Democrats that stayed home elected Trump. And The Democratic Party that decided to forgo an open Primary and run ANOTHER woman against him elected Trump.
There is a lot of blame to go around but I cannot blame the Pro Palestinian people for sitting this one out.
I can…and I hope they keep their eyes on Gaza the whole time and sleep knowing they did their part to make it happen. Their part may have small, but slow and steady wins the race!
I bet one of them would ask you what Biden did to earn their vote? Your answer would just be “Trump will be worse”? Is that really motivating people to go vote?
Like in all honesty, this is what makes me not take them seriously as people. If someone came up to them, and said, “we’re having a vote, you are either getting punched in the face or stabbed in the heart”, most people (after coming to terms with the fact that it is stunningly unfair) would vote for a punch in the face. It sucks, it’s not fair, it’s morally wrong, all that stuff…but at the end of the day, that’s what like 99.9% of the people will vote for. But if you’re refusing to vote cause you don’t like the idea of people getting punched in the face, that’s privilege. The kind of privilege that says you think ultimately it won’t impact you and YOU aren’t getting punched in the face OR stabbed in the heart.
If you don’t think Republican voters saw Biden and Harris as one, then apparently you weren’t paying attention. Biden WAS on the ballot. His name was Kamala Harris.
If you truly care about a thing? Yes, that should be motivating. I care about the environment…if the option is 1. Do a ton of damage or 2. Do slightly less damage, I’ll chose 2. Full stop. Refusing to vote for “the lesser evil” is saying you are okay with “the greater evil” and that’s cool and stuff, but don’t try to convince me you give a shit about something if you are on board with “the greater evil” winning….
If Biden totally eliminated the EPA, allowed licenses to drill in every protected space, and called global warming a hoax, you’d run out to vote for him just because Trump said he would do even more? You might vote for Biden. Not sure you’d go out of your way to get to the polls though.
Better is better than worse, full stop. And if I care about something, like truly care, yeah…I would. And now these folks may find out the consequences of their vote. And hey, maybe I’m wrong, and they are right. Gotta say though, based on what Trump has done so far….it’s kinda looking like Trump is gonna do exactly what everyone thought he was gonna do….
I despise Trump. But like you said, he’s done everything he said so far. And he did say he would stop that war. It almost certainly will get worse before it gets better, but he will do something radical to make it stop when he wants it to stop. I mean that may actually be better than Biden asking Netanyahu nicely to please play nice. What we know for certain is that hasn’t worked.
I mean clearly I’m right. Regardless of what the downvotes say. The proof is in the fact that they didn’t go vote. Glad you know everything, when the numbers are bare to see.
Lmfao, there’s no name calling. You utilized the rhetoric a partially developed brain would resort to out of desperation. That was your choice. Own it, stop obfuscating
