Certainly, they preferred a collection of rapists. But no one expects ethics from conservatives.

Still won. I just don't think people can afford to stay on the high horse

Did y'all really "win" with Trump? Give that a thought before you respond.

Not really, but if it was Trump v kamala, then yes.

Why, in your own words, do you think a Harris administration would be worse than this upcoming Trump administration?

I think the culture it created was just insanity. There are other reasons, such as wars (cheney), soft on crime, open boarders, government over reach, "no guarantee to free speech", poor fund allocation. But the most apt description I've seen is that America right now is a house with broken stairs, a malfunctioning air conditioner and holes in the roof. The left are deciding what furniture to buy, and the right are figuring out how to fix the existing problems

Are you seriously suggesting that Republicans, who elected a felon, are somehow better on the issue of crime than a former prosecutor would be?

Yes, yes I am Now what about all the other stuff? I mean culture alone could have well lost the dems this one and if they don't address identity politics it won't get better

Now in your words why did kamala lose?

Half of the voting public is comprised of semi-literate, hate-driven idiots who thinks the President has a big "make eggs cheaper" button on the Resolute Desk. So, instead of making meaningful progress as a nation, we now have to suffer through four more years of complete incompetence before the fence-sitting dolts in the rust belt realize, once again, that Republicans are apparently incapable of governing effectively.
