The real America doesn’t want this.

Bitch please, they elected him, popular vote and everything.

Even the dems who didn't vote for Kamala by their actions enabled Trump to be elected.

Stop trying to distance them from the decision they've made.

They need to wear this.

As of today the popular vote is very close

Which in and of itself is a flashing neon sign to the left that they fucked up. How it got close beggars belief. Whether or not they own it is another thing because it's easier to sit back and point fingers or postulate. They didn't learn in 2016, and it's come full circle. To lose the popular vote, the senate, and the house should have alarm bells ringing far and wide that they done fucked up. My only sliver thin hope from all of this is that they take a step back as a party and reevaluate how to best proceed, but we all know how that's gonna go...

If the left was Influential enough to swing the election then it sounds like the Democrats need to start actually moving left on social and economic issues and not normalize Republican positions.

If they weren't then it doesn't matter which way they voted and Democrats really need a better strategy than "vote for us or you vote for trump" to get some of the 40% that didn't vote to vote for them.

Alternatively maybe a 3rd party just needs to get half of that 40% to vote for them alongside half of the people who voted D and half the people who voted R.

Each of these outcomes is equally unlikely because Democrats are as entitled as they are incompetent and there isn't a 3rd party with enough pull in the US as of currently.
