I'm glad you're conscience is clear, as you most likely won't be allowed to vote in the next election at all. Congrats you won!
I can't imagine how you can see Democrats lose or nearly lose three elections in a row to Trump and come away thinking that they aren't the problem. Your blind allegiance to party over policy is the reason why Trump is yet again sitting in the oval office.
to be fair the gop also has significant help, in the form of propaganda and voting mahcine rigging too, plus voter suppression. nobody was willing to question the machines being rigged.
It's not "allegiance to the party;" that's a fucking lie. It's understanding of game theory and harm reduction.
Quit your bullshit.
"Harm reduction" is hilarious. It's like you're channeling your inner George W. Bush while talking about "enhanced interrogation."
What does game theory tell you about a strategy that's failed nearly three times in a row and given us Trump as president twice with all branches of government now being controlled by Republicans?
It's absolutely all about party allegiance when you refuse to even face the reality of our situation and want to attack those who refuse to bury their heads in the sand. The Democrats aren't the good guys. 🙄
Low effort, give-in and and vote for the lessor evil. Congrats YOU won!
it'll be just like living in texas before trump and i welcome you to the club
