Trump’s cornerstone campaign promise… Millions of you let him win by not voting or voting third party. Don’t blame Trump for this. For once he wasn’t lying. Ooh and he has Congress to back him up, too! Checks and balances? Nope.
You can fight back by yelling on the internet or maybe a little protest march (until that’s disallowed). But for fuck’s sake don’t vote until the electoral college is gone and Gaza is free and you have the perfect candidate!

My fellow Americans, if you sat out the election because Harris didn’t excite you enough or she wasn’t perfect, what’s coming from Trump is on you.

And if you voted for Jill Stein because you don’t understand how foreign aid is established (it’s via Congress) or you believed the hype of “genocide” or that Republicans weren’t worth your protests, what’s coming to Gaza is on you.

What is Trump’s stated opinion on Israel and its war in Gaza? What is Trump’s stated opinion -and first term actions- on Muslims? Seriously, the Biden & Harris = “genocide” horseshit was 100% designed to disenfranchise Democrats. Congress votes on foreign aid. Congress is largely Republican. Protesters NEVER went after Republicans.

So left wing Democrats responded by sitting on their hands instead of voting, knowingly allowing the country to slide into whatever authoritarian hellhole that awaits us? Now that’s the definition of pettiness.

This is absolute bullsh1t.

Trump has repeatedly said Netanyahu can do as he pleases, has repeatedly disparaged all Muslims, has repeatedly shown a political kinship with dictatorships.

Biden/Harris were protest targets in spite of it being the entirety of Congress that votes on/gives foreign aid because these protests were propaganda bent on disenfranchising Democrats and nothing else. The protests will wither to nothing now that pants-sh1tter rapist is going to be president.

You were duped. You fell for it. Gaza has zero chance now.

If the results are close, they’ll try their voter fraud shtick to whittle away the difference. Voter turnout is going to decide this election. The bigger the difference, the less they can do about it. The margin of shenanigans needs to be wide.

Are these other ways just as constructive as pissing their vote away..?

Ignore the polls and vote. Just freaking vote.

I’ll drink to that!

I’ll believe it when I see it. Voter turnout amongst young people is traditionally abysmal. That more are voting this time is great, but it’s still going to below 50%. Well, except for conservatives. They show up.

Please, people, voting takes less effort than a pub crawl. Just vote.
