Can I get a smug lecture on how you’re choosing the third, disconnected track?

    Be upset that I’m reminding you of the failures brought on by protest and 3rd party voters. The vast majority do nothing between elections except post online about it.

    DOGE and Iran wouldn’t have happened if Kamala was elected. Think of that every time you’re at the pump looking at those higher prices, if you’re old enough to drive.

      The democrats lost because they ran a dogshit candidate and refused to change course from any of their many unpopular fantasies, yet you freaks insist they’re absolved of all guilt. The party cannot fail, it can only be failed.

      People have been electing democrats on and off for over a century. Yet it changed nothing. But sure, 3rd party voting is the thing that can’t succeed. Doing the same thing again and again hoping for a different outcome is clearly the smarter thing to do.

      But sure, if we just accept genocide and vote for it, at least the gas will be cheaper. Sure. Why not.

        Wrong, and there’s literally decades of legislation that you can review to see for yourself.

        Go vote for 3rd party local government officials. If you want a 3rd party to be viable, this is the way.

          Yeah, decades of things like:

          • Foreign interventions
          • More fracking
          • No universal healthcare.
          • No codified Roe v Wade.
          • increased police budgets
          • Increased military spending
          • Crackdowns on peaceful protesters
          • Legislation making it illegal to be homeless
          • Just straight up genocide

          But hey, at least they’ll sign the Paris Agreement (they wont do anything to actually achieve the goals set out by it though), so you can feel good about yourself as the president drone-strikes another wedding
