I'm pissed that Biden didn't drop out way sooner. I'm pissed the Dems didn't let the people actually pick the nominee. I'm pissed Harris shifted to the right and paraded around with a Cheney.

Well, on the bright side Kamala will get her wish of a Republican in the presidential cabinet. /s

I mean, at a certain point we all already know that trump is vindictive, he’s racist, he’s a rapist. I will blame his supporters, and u will blame third party voters. They know who he is and still let him in. Our institutions are still weak from the last time. I hope democracy survives

There is no one to blame for a Trump win except for Trump voters.

Third party voters statistically cannot be blamed for a Harris loss. The margins were too large for a third party spoiler vote.

Way better than the previous 4, which is what we’re going to get in overdrive now

I'm pissed that morons voted for him and other morons didn't vote against him.

The Dems should have done better. But it's the people who voted for this.

Yes, let's blame the voters for losing the election....

Not the Democratic party or their candidate, because clearly only voters can fail them, they can't fail us.
