It must be easy for the Dems to blame the voters and call them XYZ because it affords them the opportunity of not having to change. If the voters are the problem then you don't have to do anything different and continue down the same path.
Can we stop with all this bullshit? Im not even and American and i cant stand the cry anymore. People voted, its democracy, it is what it is, get over it
It is so odd and counterproductive to me to take this position. "Vote how I want or Ill hate you because Im a better person than you." Yeah, that will really bring those votes in by the millions. Instead of acting like a child why not learn about these peoples' lives and attempt to understand why they voted the way they did? Why did Democrats lose the male vote, the independent vote, half of Latinos, and all 7 swing states? It is ignorant and lazy to call them all the isms, go and actually learn why you lost.
This tweet assumes people care about OPs opinion, or histories opinion.
It's a toothless threat trying to invoke some Boogeyman of future retribution.
Anyone who voted for Trump is going to be doing the Jennifer Lawrence "ok" reaction to this.
I'd really like to have 100 randomly chosen Trump voters in a room and interview them to find out how knowledgeable they are about Trump, about his policies, about his first term, about the criminal cases, etc.
My guess is that at least 90% of them are brainwashed. I'm sure there are some that are completely aware of his record and are either single issue voters who are voting only on abortion. Some may be multi-millionaires who are voting just for lower taxes and don't care about anything else. But, anybody who voted for him because of inflation / the economy has no idea what they're talking about. Inflation was a worldwide problem and Trump's policies made / will make it worse. Anybody who voted for him because he's going to "fix immigration" has no idea what they're doing because his policies are incoherent and will never work. Anybody who voted for him because of Gaza is an absolute moron because he's just going to encourage the genocide.
I judge you for your literal inability to detect hostility and scams.
We have SO MUCH EVIDENCE that Trump is a Russian asset who Russia has Kompromat on (see American Kompromat by Unger). We are at war with Russia and previously were at war with them for decades. And we don't think Putin wants revenge? Look at what happened to Navalny.
Everything Trump wants is deemed harmful by experts. Almost as if he's a foreign fucking asset harming the US as much as possible in a proxy war. He has a history of violence, abuse, and grifting. How can people be so naive? Literal wolf in wolf's clothing with neon signs saying "I'm a wolf and I will eat you."
Cool, none of them care. They’re all gloating. You can judge people all you want, but they won’t do what you want if they have real power over you. You want to make them care? Get power.
In the course of history, what do we know of those who “judged” the people who won? We don’t know much, nor do we care. How about we focus on winning, then it will matter who we judge.
Many of those people could have been swayed to vote democrat if the democrats fucking addressed the actual fucking issues and actually gave them a damn narrative to go by. Saying everything is fine when nothing is fine and the Republicans are constantly screwing them over (while also 100% deflecting ALL blame elsewhere) is delusional at best.
My unfortunate observation is the majority of people who voted for Trump don't pay any attention to current events and basically get their news via rumor. But if you want the true culprit, it's the 15 million Democrats that voted last time but not this time. The votes for Trump actually went down compared to last time.
I could understand Trump in 2016. I could also understand Trump in 2020 but much less. In 2024? Nahh... America voted for him in 2024 and I will judge Americans for it.
Just something that's worth pointing out is that trumps voter base didn't change much. Counting is still happening, but so far it's trump -1 mil and Harris -13 million from last election.
So it's not so much that republicans voted badly it's that democrats lost a good chunk of votes (16%) didn't bother to vote this time.
And while I completely disagree with trumps side, it's insane, but at least I am happy that people voted. Voter apathy is far more dangerous to me. It's like saying to politicians, "I don't care that the nazi party is coming to power".
To me that's the biggest issue this election and honestly I don't understand why so few people cared. It's actually same story over here (UK), where we had fewer people voting this election than previous one.
Unfortunately I don't think most of these people care about being judged, especially not by some future people who they'll never meet.
As long as they see benefits in the short term, they're happy, and if the benefits don't materialize or go away too quickly, then it's The Other Side's fault somehow.
I propose a total halt to any sexual activity with any Trump supporter. This will go on for the 4 years that asshole is in power and until a reasonable president that is not a rapist racist asshole is elected. Sure that guy could be republican but I highly recommend elsewhere.
Trump voters won't care about any of that shit until it impacts them personally. My family is moving from Indiana to Maryland because of this election which is really going to obliterate grandparents' time around our kids. Sucks for them we refuse to stay in a state that would actively destroy our kids' education and wellbeing. They can shell out whatever massively inflated airfare it'll cost them to come visit us in a place we can actually feel safe.
I was thinking about this today, but I never thought I'd be living through, what I think of, as a major world event. This isn't a world War (in name), but the history books WILL likely bring up this period on the States. In what manner they're mentioned, good, bad, or indifferent, is yet to be seen. I imagine grandkids being bewildered when I tell them I lived through this... hopefully.
I certainly do judge any Trump voter as being either terribly naive or a truly bad person. However, broadcasting that message is going to change nothing and only serves as copium for the anti-Trump crowd.
What is going to sway people who have voted for Trump in the past and are not completely lost to the cult of personality is being a champion for radical change that benefits the middle class. The Harris platform evidently did not go far enough to convince enough voters they would see any meaningful change. Nor did the Clinton or Biden platforms, Biden was only lucky enough that his policies were effectively irrelevant in contest with Trump's disastrous mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic response.
We can't hope for another deadly crisis to get us out of this one.
What about the lack of turnout for KH? Am I reading the results wrong ? Was there not massive amounts on non voters? As much as I hate republicans the fence setters an uninformed have fucked us all outside the US
"I don't judge you for your political party" hurrr fucking durr from a tiny mind trying to sound intelligent
The Fucking Republicans have been threatening and working towards ripping away protects from Brown people since The Southern Strategy in 1964, Andrea Junker trying to be cute, going high, and ridiculously trying to split this hair is insulting to the decades of fighting Democrats had to wage to keep Roe, and Voting Rights as long as they did while the Fucking Republicans tried every Congress under every President to strip them away
If you vote Fucking Republican, you are a Fucking Racist, and I blame you squarely for both who you vote for, and what political fucking party you belong to
I'm not American, but I would have voted for him the first time around.
I was bored. Bored with life. Let's fuck shit up by putting some crazy in office. Even better that I don't live there so I get to grab the popcorn and watch the crazy.
But by the end of it, I was sooo done. I just wanted it to calm down and go back to normal.
There is no way I would have voted for him this time. And frankly I am disappointed in anyone who did.
“If you were able to overlook a genocide and cast a vote for Harris, you already know how a conservative was able to overlook Trump ’s extremism and vote for him.” -- Historian Robin D.G. Kelley
Oh no! I'm shaking in my little boots. Your opinion matters so much, Andrea. For the record though, I'm with you in principal, I just don't care about your opinion.
I'm judging the Trump voters, but I'm judging the Harris voters, too. You would think that support of genocide would be a deal-breaker for Democrats, but apparently not.
