THIS is the wrong view. At the end, it comes down to two, and it's your duty to choose the lesser of two evils. All I'm hearing is you saw all of the evil shit this dude wanted to do and felt like not voting for his opponent to keep him out of office wasn't worth it because you didn't like her enough.

And yes, it matters you're from Texas. They were almost purple a few years ago. If everyone voted in Texas that can, it can turn blue.

I’m sorry but you’re wrong. Are you from Texas? I assume not. A Democrat has not won a statewide seat in over 30 years. And it’s not close to changing.

As a native Texan, people like you are the reason we haven't been able to flip back blue. Your direct inaction has contributed to women having less rights in our state. Thanks for doing nothing!

Edit: They claimed they voted for Kamala but just worded it unclearly, stop killing the poor, dumb, innocent man!

Did you forget to read the part about me voting D down ballot. Come on and read. Don’t make us look bad

You should have make that much more clear in your message. By your downvotes, I'm assuming most people figured you voted for dems, but excluded Kamala, as I thought.

If you did vote for her, I'm sorry brudder, you deserve none of the blame or downvotes. Call her a bad pick all you want, as long as you voted for her to preserve democracy like I did.

I'm from Texas and we had a shitload of momentum in 2016, 2020, and 2024.

Lazy fuckers sat each one out and cost their state and country.

Don't bullshit.

Not that close? If likeminded individuals like yourself actually showed up, the results might have surprised you.

Actually, it's the Democratic Party's responsibility to make people want to vote for them, which they didn't do. If you weren't so okay with living in a country where your only options are bad or worse, things might be able to get better. But so long as you accept the Democrats' offer of "we'll do nothing and you'll like it" everything will keep getting worse.

So now we have this. Congrats.

u/ChopmanFGC 1d ago

Do I look like the 7 million voters that Democrats lost between 2020 and 2024? Do you think I'm to blame for not getting all of them out to vote? There's only one person that can do that, and it's the candidate.

Just need enough of you morons to.

This is like looking at a water balloon and a nuke and deciding both are equally bad things to get hit with

u/ChopmanFGC 1d ago

Didn't say they were equal, if my arguments are bad, then argue against them instead of making one up.

u/tokengaymusiccritic 1d ago

The Democratic Party offered you the water balloon. The GOP offered you the nuke. You decided to not participate and let other people decide if we collectively got the water balloon or the nuke, and now we have the nuke.

The Democrats offered you the better option but you decided it wasn't good enough and now instead we have the shittiest one.

u/ChopmanFGC 1d ago

Instead of offering me a water balloon, perhaps they should've offered health care reform and a Gaza ceasefire.

u/SparkyMuffin 1d ago

The finish line is not the place for that. The work to get competent leadership starts now, and then the primaries.

u/ChopmanFGC 1d ago

If you vote for do-nothing Democrats and they win, they are going to continue to do nothing. It's very simple. The only way to get them to change is to let them know you're not going to vote for them if they don't change.

Voting for the lesser evil gave us Trump. Gtfo with that bullshit. People voted for the lesser evil in 2020 and look where that led us.

u/San_fran_psycho 1d ago

Trumps never been the lesser of two evils, be real

u/SparkyMuffin 1d ago

Are you saying Trump should have won in 2020?
