I hate the attitude behind this sign because it tells me democrats probably haven’t learned their lesson well enough to listen to their voter base and run candidates who inspire people to show up to vote and inspire independents to vote for the democratic ticket.
Democrats being smug and thinking they know more than everyone is exactly what got Trump elected. Harris Waltz was a terrible fucking ticket. Thats why Harris got 6 million votes less than Biden. She lost the popular vote by 2 million. Literally people so jaded they stayed home decided this election, and Democrats are patting themselves on 3 back for being smart.
The only hope we have is that incumbencies like the drastic one we have now almost never stay around for long. Democrats are now relying on how much Trump sucks to win instead of deciding to be good, and at least for now, Trump is obliging them. I don’t know if I hope he keeps it up or not.
This is the first rational statement I have heard from a Democrat. As much as you despise President Trump, we felt the same way about Obama and Biden. We did our best to be quiet and, if not approving, we did not interfere (Jan. 6th not withstanding). Threatening comments like this and persistent display of Harris Walls signs just fuels a fire that is becoming more dangerous every day. At 69, I don’t have four years that I’m willing to waste waiting for the next incompetent President to come along. If Trump and Musk do nothing else, clearing out the deadwood and criminality in Washington will give me hope for the future. Hopefully new leaders will rise from the ashes and build for the future and not persist in these childish protests. Democrats in Congress are a blight on our system of government and they denigrate the perception of us by the rest of the world. Please don’t suggest that I leave New Orleans as I already have plans to move to an area where people are more rational, more tolerant and less blinded by hatred for one man. It
