    What could go wrong is millions of childish idiots would decide to walk across broken glass barefoot because they don’t like the choices of shoes available. And then blame it on whoever brought the shoes.

      I don’t disagree with you fully, both things are to be blamed here. An average person should do a proper research before voting, but a party should also give people what they want instead of forcing specific candidates. To be blunt, good amount of voters are idiots and ignorant, so it’s party’s responsibility to figure out what they want and then base their campaign on that. Thats where primaries can play a huge part.

        The Democratic Party did try to campaign based on what they thought the public wanted and what the country needed, and more than 74 million people showed up and voted for her. The 10 million or so Democrats who voted in 2020 but didn’t in 2024, who could have changed the outcome but didn’t, can’t blame the party for their own fuckheadedness.

      You see thats the problem, you didn’t bring shoes. you literally spread the glass. bringing shoes would have meant having policies that would actually help working americans.

        I showed up and voted. The problem was y’all who didn’t. You also literally don’t understand what the word “literally” means.

          Oh I showed up and voted. you’re not some special snowflake. just didnt vote for harris or trump. get better candidates next time and maybe we’ll support your shit party. You know maybe people who dont shit on a minority group being murdered by our policies their entire campaign, or immediately try to through lgbt+ groups under the bus immediately following their loss. Maybe someone who also supports policies beneficial towards the working class.

          You know, basic fucking human decency. if you want safety for yourself you need to support safety for others. which dems clearly don’t. Next time you spout ‘blue no matter who’ or other such nonsense to defend your preferred parties candidate remember: you need to actually give people reasons to vote for your candidate. things you may not personally agree with.
