Losing the elections was the perfect gambit for Democrats to hand over the genocide to a party that unabashedly supports it. Relieves them from the pain of feigning concern and opposition.

Genocide is a SMALL PRICE for ALSO losing your Own Country and ANY power you had Domestically or Globally. There's LITERALLY Nothing they could have Done! God WILL understand at the Pearly Gates!

We stopped the genocide by electing Trump so it was a win all around!

Pretending to care about genocide while literally advocating for genocide as an acceptable price for…

checking notes being complicit in fascism?

Just another normal day for blue MAGA mental gymnastics.

Go ahead, show us another routine, Greg!

Unfortunate that they didn't use the previous 4 years to stop the genocide, wouldn't you say?

But then it actually got worse but since there's no election this year I guess it's fine 🤷

suddenly all those "vote blue no matter who" morons who were trying to belittle palestine supporters for Harris' loss look real dumb

Did their voting red improve anything for Palestinians in Gaza?? They continue to look dumber than a box of rocks. Nothing sudden there.

how do you know people voted red? I for one see many comments critizing democrats say that they voted Harris.

Edit: Not to mention the third party voters couldn't have won it for Harris either. The gap was too huge. You're kind of imagining a majority of progressives suddenly losing their heads and voting trump.. which i find unlikely unless there is expert analysis of the vote count.

Seriously? They organized rallies, they created groups and protests expressly with the purpose of withholding their vote from the Democrats and going so far as to pledge support for Trump! Ever heard of the group ‘Arab Americans for Trump’? Or the “Abandon Harris” campaign? Wake up. These groups influenced many people, either to vote red or to not vote at all, on the premise that there were no lesser evils and no point in voting at all. This was exploited to maximum effect by interests seeking the exact outcome that resulted.
