    Love seeing all the pissed off abstainers get angry that they’re not being thanked.

    It didn’t work in 2016. It didn’t work in 2024. Maybe next time? Oh wait…

      Love to see the pearl clutching idiots ingesting the propaganda and teaching themselves to hate their neighbors over a strawman.

      If you actually payed attention and looked at data, you would know that protest votes didn’t impact the election in any meaningful way

      But I understand. It’s really easy to get poor people to hate each other as a control mechanism.

        Trump won the national popular vote by 1%

        There was a 2% reduction in voter participation from 2020 to 2024.

        So, yeah. Idiots staying home because there wasn’t a perfect candidate did impact the election in a significant way.

        You staying home was a vote for Trump, and a whole lot of people are going to pay for your shitty behavior.

          So so close, but you’re still just trying to confirm your biases

          If you weren’t lazy and did your research you would see the bigest drops in voter demographics who voted dem from 2020>2024 were people over 40, who were white men/women and hispanic men.
