"I didn't like the DNC so I decided to vote for someone who is an unapologetic racist sack of shit and who bragged about how he'd abuse the presidency to get revenge on his enemies" really doesn't change anything to what I said.
I'm not a huge fan of the DNC either but I think that they're being used as a scapegoat for people not to own their terrible decisions to vote for a moronic demagogue.
- mindslight 10mo agoSpot on! If in 2012 you told me half of Trump's platform, and told me I'd be voting for Kamala Harris instead, I might have shot myself in the face. But my country called, so I swallowed my fuck-the-status-quo pride and answered the call.
- tombert 10mo agoYeah, I wasn't exactly slap-happy about Harris, but at least I don't think she's as actively dangerous as Trump is.
- jazzyjackson 10mo agoFair enough but the brass tacks of the matter is more Americans liked what Trump had to offer than what the DNC was selling (stability, more of the same) IME a lot of trump voters are in the "fuck the government" camp and voted for him purely to throw a wrench in the political machine
- tombert 10mo ago> Fair enough but the brass tacks of the matter is more Americans liked what Trump had to offer than what the DNC was selling (stability, more of the same) I agree. What he had to offer was getting rid of brown people. He wasn't secretive about this. This isn't in conflict with what I said. > IME a lot of trump voters are in the "fuck the government" camp and voted for him purely to throw a wrench in the political machine So they voted for a guy who bragged about how he was going to use the government to go after his enemies? Yeah I don't buy that.
