I'm gonna hate the next four years because the dems ran a candidate that they knew couldn't win and idiots like you shouted at people who pointed this out and called us trump lovers

"Anyone who wants the Democrats to win against Trump is actually a Trump supporter!"

I hated hearing it in 2016, 2020, and 2024

Yes, democrats are vegetative. You can see my comment history, im the first one to point that out. But you are even worse than democrats if you actually thought that trump was the winning option.

Are you claiming that trump didn't win?

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

🤦

I'm going to assume you are being intentionally obtuse. Its very simple.

Trump bad.

Any other option good in comparison.

Arguing good option bad means you are arguing in bad faith.

I think it's fair to say that, notwithstanding the badness of Trump, the Democratic Party needs vast improvement if it's going to be part of an effective opposition to Trump and his gang of MAGAfascist oligarchs and lumpen God-bothering thugs. I'd even go so far as to say that, if any resistance emerges beyond finger-pointing and bleating, it won't originate with the Democrats.
