    And they continue to prove they know absolutely nothing about anyone under the age of ~40.

    As weird as it is, her claiming to be like Lisa Simpson really ruined it for me, that was before she fucked up.

    Literally who cares about this bog witch? Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory was a pretty neat signature move I guess lol

    Idk man looking at the 27% approval rate of Trump (including, gag, one of my wife's now (as in, this week now) ex mom-friends), my friends who haven't been following it at all, and the propaganda machine covering trump like a blanket fresh out of the dryer...

    I honestly think that if we had a do-over election, today, right now, vote or die....we'd have the same result.

    Assuming the same level of tampering, of course.

    Part of that is because of the...efficiencies...of the electoral college, sure. But part of that is that I realize now that America (or, rather, the electors) is absolutely not going to vote for a woman, let alone a non-white one.

    The efficiencies of the electoral college also mean that in my mind, there'd still be a sizable portion in the red states that would pick "or die".

    Maybe my perspective is skewed because I live in a populous blue coastal state...but man, does it feel like we are living entirely under the tyranny of the minority? Like, not even the hundreds or so of political figures and wealthy "elites", but even the ~30% of the people (not ec votes) that actually still support the party?

    This seems like projection to me considering every third person in Congress is a woman, and considering you chose to ignore all her decisions and actions on the campaign trail, instead focusing on gender thereby infantilizing her.

    I didn't. I proudly and loudly voted for Kamala. And Liz Warren.

    I think you're missing what I said. I said (and you quoted) that America (or, rather, the electors) is absolutely not going to vote for a woman, let alone a non-white one.

    Most states have had fewer than 10 female representatives. Total. Ever. Mississippi has had 0.

    As progressive as the Dems want to pretend to be, putting forward a non-white, non-male candidate against Trump of all people was running the election on hard-mode. They knew it, I knew it, you knew it, we all knew it.

    Because the majority of electors are selected by voters who are either:

    • Sexist, chauvinistic, racist buffoons, or
    • their submissive (and likely battered) wives

    HRC told it like it is. Basket of deplorables.

    6-7 was a Gen Alpha thing and even they think it’s dumb now. They are trying to do the “great meme reset”.

    First of many failures of her campaign relaunch, which will end up as a dumpster fire
