    Nah I’m going to blame 70+ million Americans who chose a racist, sexist felon, fraud, rapist fascist over a black moderate woman.

      I blame the 70ish million who decided the whole voting scene just wasn’t for them.

      (And the misogyny. Holy shit the misogyny)

        No you still blame the people blindly voting for the orange idiot. If he didn’t get votes and support he would not have won. You can’t just write off his voters as blameless wtf.

        Why did they sit this one out? Whoever’s job it was to get them excited about voting and get them to vote failed here… I’m not saying this one was, but if the next election was between Trump and Cheney, I’d probably just stay home too… If that’s how 16 million people saw this election, that’s on the Dems for not figuring out what would change their minds… Or figuring it out but choosing to ignore it

      I’m sure misogyny also played a big role in her numbers. But if Harris firmly opposed any material or diplomatic support for genocide, then she probably would have won despite the misogynists, no?
