I literally never said anything that implies I'm happy about Trump's election why do you insist that I'm secretly a Trumper? Is it that hard to believe that someone can criticize Harris without being a Trump supporter?

I mean believe whatever you want then I guess. If you can't believe that her promise to build a border wall didn't sit well with democrat voters, that's on you.
Since I responded to your other claim earlier, here I'll just say this:
I never said I didn't care about US politics. I said I don't keep up with the nitty gritty, meaning the details of the policies being discussed. For example, I knew that Harris was adopting a right wing stance on immigration, but only today found out she had promised to build a border wall.
The platform goes above and beyond just Harris btw. I'm including "Fascism" and other such arguments we used online / memes that clearly didn't work well enough.
I've been trying to say that for ages, but got called (and still get called) a MAGA troll.
Edit: Got called a Trumper in this very thread. Again. Fix your country, y'all.
Can you not put words in my mouth? I'm hoping for some sweet karma against Harris for messing up the Democrat campaign so hard and causing four more years of Trump.
Huh???? Okay you gotta be shitting me. I'm not American so while I know that's impossible but I can't really refute their personal experience so can an American around here do it?
I'll just quote this:
Many pundits have considered Obama's 2008 campaign to be one of the greatest political underdog stories in U.S. history.[9][10] The campaign is credited for shifting the status quo of the Democratic platform, especially on issues such as healthcare reform.
Harris's campaign sucked even in the eyes of me, a non-American who doesn't keep up with the nitty gritty of American politics. She had a massive headstart (remember the first while after her nomination? She was basically a messiah for democrats) and managed to lose it with her wishy washy attitude and right wing policies.
So I read the article and... Uh... Not convinced. Her platform was vague "nothing will fundamentally change" slop. I mean Biden's term did have many good initiatives that it would be nice to keep, but yeah this ain't it.
However, she has not provided many details on her plans,
We call that in plain English "not making promises". I mean hell she couldn't even commit to keeping Lina Khan.
Trump has never been able policies; Trump is a culture war candidate who says what his voters want to hear. Comparing him to dem candidates is a mistake.
I agree with you in general but you should be blaming Harris. Have you even been keeping up with her campaign? I couldn't believe that shit and I'm not even American. She managed to squander a massive headstart by... Being Harris.
Worse maybe, but not for worse. That said that's not really what I'm trying to say; my point is that people whose number one issue was Palestine overwhelmingly didn't vote. Democrats went to vote despite Biden/Harris's Israel policy, meaning they considered something else to be more important and so they wouldn't answer this poll with "foreign policy".
A large swath of the country that wouldn't vote Democrat in a million years. As a Democrat presidential candidate, you straight up don't care about those people. You care about the other half, which moved to the left and includes demographics that have historically responded to leftist messaging.
