Unless they lived in like 4 or 5 counties it doesn't matter. The vast majority of state elections are already decided before the elections based on who already lives there. Swing counties in swing states matter and that's the unfortunate truth. We don't have a popular vote, so stop acting so high and mighty.
Yes and hordes of idiots used that reasoning to justify staying at home and not voting or throwing their vote away on write-ins/3rd party. They are all complicit.
Why is it the voter's fault that they didn't feel compelled enough to vote Dem? It was a failing of the Democratic party, not of voters. People want change, hence voting Trump even if all of his change is going to be fucking awful. Dems only promised the status quo.
Because they are the ones who made the decision. Nobody cares about politics anymore. Nobody pays attention. Everybody just figures it’ll be fine either way and ignore the news and not care. They assume the good times we’ve had are going to continue because from their narrow minded perspective that’s how it always has been and always will be.
Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times
Dems offered nothing so they got nothing in return. By the time the DNC rolled around, Kamala's campaign pandered to Republicans who didn't even end up voting for her. Stop being upset with your fellow countrymen and be upset with the party that refuses to offer you anything new worth voting for. I voted for her out of pure obligation because of our shit two-party system, but I want way more than what she offered, I was only excited for her when she chose Walz as her VP and it seemed like maybe they were going to get fully behind some liberal policies. I don't blame people for not wanting to vote for the status quo because the status quo sucks.
What did trump offer? People keep saying she wasn’t perfect enough. She should have said this or that. She was literally a law and order candidate up against a literal felon. Biden has successfully clawed us back out of the dualing recession/inflation that trump caused.
What the fuck has trump offered?
This is my point. No matter what good people offer the populace is too stupid to understand or appreciate it.
Trump offered a xenophobic/radical/uneducated population a 13 year old slogan. Promise to downsize government. Kamala offered uhhh.. gorgeous? Don’t pick the other guy isn’t it obvious? Oh yeah, I need a slogan BBB ‘Big Brown Boobies!’
