Trump is winning all these states and look at the percentages. How?

Edit: many news agency are calling PA for Trump. So we are truly fucked.

    Blaming the DNC has gotten stale and boring. Kamala couldn’t have run a better campaign in how little time there was, she still nailed it. At what point do we just admit that most of the public is just too braindead?

      She nailed it? You mean like how for 8 years she thought the border wall is a stupid idea and then suddenly she pivots into “yup, we totally need that wall”? Or when she got all buddy buddy with the likes of Cheney when the core democrats loathe Cheney? She had time to appeal to the republican voters but not to the 16 million voters who voted for Biden and not her? She had plenty of time to nail her campaign and she didn’t.

      And I’ll just add this as a non-American. It’s a very American thing to think election campaigns have to be long, because they are long in America. She got over 3 months to campaign and that would’ve been enough time in most countries. Just to give some context: Mexico’s president campaigned for 93 days, Canada’s last federal election was 36 days, Australian president campaigned for 36 days, India campaign was 33 days, Brazil was 90 days.

      For cunts like that commenter, never. In a sane world the voters were always to blame. They are the ones who fucked us like this twice now. I hate America and no longer have any hope for it at all. Fuck this place.

      In a way, the commenter you responded to already did. People act where they think their actions will do something. You might push a heavy wagon; you probably wouldn’t push a mountain.

      They’re distributing blame among the actors they know they had a chance of improving.

      The DNC is at fault. Either they should have had Biden not run again at all or not backstab him to get rid of him so late.
