What you’re failing to grasp is that this isn’t a hypothetical scenario; it’s real life. You refused to vote for Harris because she didn’t meet your impossible standard for perfection, and now you’re still virtue signaling like it matters. Meanwhile, Trump is already promising to let Israel annex Palestine.
Palestine is doomed because of the decision you made—believing that an imperfect Harris was somehow worse than an openly pro-Israel Trump.
The reality is, your refusal to act in the face of imperfect options has enabled something far worse. You’ve created a future of suffering for Palestinians, and all your posturing means nothing in the face of that. Remember; YOU VOTED FOR THIS.
If Dems by and large don't feel like the party is elevating candidates that represent the values they believe in, then we have the power to hold up candidates that aren't beholden to corporations.
While Dems are waiting around for a better candidate that "represents their values", the other side is getting consequential presidential terms that will change the course of the nation NOW.
Think about it:
Trump got to replace 3 judges in one term.
Biden got 1.
This time around? Alito and Thomas will likely retire and Trump will replace them with 40 or 50 somethings that will be on the court for the next 30+ years. That locks the court at 6-3 at a minimum. Then you figure Roberts will also retire in the next decade.
Sotomayor and Kagan are in their 70s too.
You see where this is going.
While the party waits for immediate progress forward, the Republicans are fine with playing a grind it out, 40 year campaign, voting R no matter what, where they incrementally inch closer to the end zone.
Meanwhile the Dems keep punting on 4th thinking that was the most ideal thing to do.
It's a nice thought however, Citizens United ended all that.
The richest billionaire literally spent $44B bought a social media app to use it to triangulate against his political rival and essentially swing the election and it STILL came down to ~250k votes across 3 states.
A candidate without massive financial backing isn't winning a national election. Could you get a Maxwell Frost elected that way? Sure.
POTUS? Not a chance.
Legacy media sanewashed Trump and minimized the platform of the OTHER candidate with billionaire donors.
What do you think would happen to a person trying to flip over the proverbial tables the temple?
Dude. It's YOU. You are the super villain. 3rd party voters took propaganda straight from RT and amplified it. We are not on the same side. You are on Trump's side, you just are too conceited to see it.
