    They aren’t going to scar anyone more than they have the past year, there’s nothing worse they can do. We’ve already seen the barbarity, the dead children, the destroyed homes, the immolated people. Let’s not pretend like they’re doing anything they wouldn’t have done if Kamala won.

    There are no demands. No one is falling for that again. Not voting was spitting in their face for their unrepentant evil.

      We’ll know soon enough by 2026 how many people would be scared enough to vote for the Democrats again.

      I’d say at least half of the people who sat out of this election would be made to think that it’s just not worth trying to “punish” the Democrats when the punishment being dished out is to suffer under unhinged MAGA administration. It’s just the system disciplining the voters.

      The annihilation of third party in this election ensured that this will almost certainly be the case in two years’ time. What else are the people going to do? Keep letting the GOP win?
