    Yeah…

    To the people “wanting to teach the DNC a lesson”, in the nicest way possible, you’re fucking idiots.

    They threw literally ever other minority group under the bus, and got absolutely nothing for it - if anything they actually got less than nothing, because Trump wasn’t just going soft on Israel, he was actively cheering them on!

    I will never understand the mentality of choosing that hill to die on… Like couldn’t you guys have waited until Trump was at least off the board first.

    Man was literally on his way to a lifetime in jail and bankruptcy, that he got out of scot-free because you guys decided 2024 was the time for a protest vote.

      I think it only makes sense if they’re lying about their beliefs and wanted trump to win.

        I think for some of them it’s an unwillingness to admit/accept the consequences for their actions.

          That might be, but it’s hard to believe many people would not see the result coming ahead of time. It’s just not a believable concept to me that these folks really believed that anything could happen besides trump being more likely to win. The most generous I can be with them is that they didn’t care what would happen.
