    Why did Americans voted for this APE? Why?

    Daily reminder that if you don’t vote, you agree to all candidates.

      Becuse Kamala didn’t win a primary and/or she wouldn’t be tough on Israel. See how much better we have it!?

      Not saying those weren’t legitimate beefs, but people spouting that shit before, during, and since the election were/are completely fucking delusional. They chose a dictator over a primary process lacking in transparency, and a status quo foreign policy. And we laugh at Republicans complaining about the leopards eating their faces. They’re eating progressive faces, too, just for different reasons.

      FWIW, I also think her general female-ness also played a part in the loss. Trump’s 2-0 against women, both of whom were incredibly qualified, and moderate as all Hell. Hard to argue against that record. I see people saying she ran a terrible campaign. If that’s true, why was she doing well in the polls? And don’t say polls are meaningless. They get it wrong, for sure, but she got a lot of traction in a really short amount of time. To this day, given who she was running against, and what he was saying at the time, I still haven’t heard a good reason people didn’t vote for her.

        Preach. 100% this. I swear a lot of them are plants.
