People understand this, they are just saying that there was a choice between having a vote for the same, or voting for trump. And between those two chosing not for the same means voting for trump, even by not voting.
If they end up worse afterwards, don't complain. That one day of much needed work hopefully pays for the years that come afterwards.
Until the Democratic Party and their voters develop empathy for workers, they're going to continue to lose elections.
Your voting is messed up and needs to change. I'm not going to say Australia is perfect, but we have compulsory voting and they do their best to make it as easy as possible for every single person to vote. The fact people would have to even CONSIDER missing work to vote is an absolute joke.
You're right. Voting is made arbitrarily difficult here in the States because we're ruled by the wealthy, simple as that.
If only there WAS SOME WAY TO CHANGE THAT.
Goddamn.
The fuck? Which party has ever done anything for workers?
ANY legislation that supported workers came from the Democrats. Don't give a shit and consign us to demented fascism through your careless inaction but saying garbage like that is BULLSHIT. Learn something.
