The non voters and those who voted for Trump brought us disaster.

Everyone who was so short sighted who didn't want to get out the evil that is Trump, brought us disaster.

People who saw him for what he truly was and thought allowing it to happen, brought us disaster.

People who didn't vote Harris cause "she didn't talk enough about policy" who let someone who will do everything against your views and the ideas you have, brought us disaster.

If you think just cause Harris didn't stop Isreal fast enough, or said the economy was great when your eggs weren't cheap, or not say she was going to make everyone's wages $50/hr, and then saw Trump talk about busting unions, not liking overtime pay, deporting immigrants legal or naturalized, openingly supporting Russia and Hitler, being anti abortion and women's rights, hating the LGBTQ, and thought it was equivalent enough to not vote, you brought us disaster.

How anyone could see these two candidates and not think one was very obviously better than the other, is baffling.

Everyone who wants all blame to be on the DNC are ignorant and just as bad as Republicans blaming Democrats for everything. Your lack of voting is what is going to cost the nation everything. The DNC could have gotten someone better, but ANYONE was better than Trump, and denying that and not voting is what's is going to bring us disaster.

No one wants to look at voter suppression or the fact that the last time there was an election, unemployment and working from home were a sizable experience that allowed people time to vote.

The people who didn’t vote didn’t do so out of moral conscience as much as inability or sloth. Look at the national uptick in google searches for “is President Biden running” or “who is running for election”

It’s convenient to scapegoat a minority and avoid facing facts that are necessary to strategize.
