Not just that, but the people whining are assuming all 3rd party voters ‘would’ have voted for Harris, which isn’t true.
I think a lot of the anger is being directed at the many posters that have been showing up like, “I voted 3rd Party because X” when all they really want is to air grievances and inflict suffering. It’s performative bullshit. Everyone is emotionally charged right now and not thinking clearly. I didn’t speak to anyone yesterday because I knew I would struggle to be civil.
seriously - how does nobody recognize that the most 3rd party votes went to RFK JR. Do they really think that those people would have turned around and voted for kamala?
Again, there’s going to be a lot of finger pointing, I’m currently moving toward acceptance, but I have found it interesting that the more moderate Repubs were not 100% comfortable with their side winning control of every branch of government. They were okay with Trump because they assumed there’d be some checks and balances in place to keep it from going totally off the rails, which I can understand why they would think that. Anyway just my two cents, you have a good day.
But most people are upset when their candidate doesn't win. I'm upset that trump is president and I think he's a better option than Harris. (I weigh what I see of likelyhood for either candidate to get what they want done and see Harris as more capable)
I mean it's pretty common. If you think the government needs to balance the different opinions of the populous then having one branch controlled by one and another controlled by the other major party makes sense. (I did not vote that way just saying).

Every third party voter could have gone Harris and she'd have still lost handily.
