But you’re not gonna give up. You just feel like you are.
If you were gonna give up, you’d have done it the first time, but ya didn’t. There’s something in you that whispers NO FUCKIN WAY AM I GIVING THEM WHAT THEY WANT
Dean Phillips would have won
Hell, I think even Witmer would have won
We’re a racist country, to a lesser degree sexist
I’m not sure that we are more racist than sexist. We had a black president, who even got elected to 2 terms. We have yet to have a woman.
Either way, awful.
None of the women who have run had Obama’s charisma. Harris was a bit of a wet blanket and clinton was just unpleasant.
If George Clooney was the democratic nominee, he would have won easily.
I’ve been thinking this for a while now. Nothing gets people more excited than a celebrity, and Trump is proof of that. Dems definitely need to fight back with a classically “alpha” seeming white male celebrity to fight back.
While I highly disagree with the concept of turning the office of president into even more of a joke by purposefully electing more celebrities, someone like Nick Offerman or Robert Downey Jr. Would easily be able to defeat just about any Republican candidate just on popularity alone.
Bro if I was the nominee, I would have won. No doubt about it. It would have been a landslide victory. It would look like the Reagan victory from his first term.

I am genuinely disgusted at how this could even happen like this. He got the popular vote? By 5 million?
Yeah, it wasn’t even the electoral college fucking us. He straight up won, by a significant amount too.
Oh its worse then that.
Just winning would be bad, but with the popular vote that is a mandate.
Having a clear mandate would be very bad but the house/senate would both need to go red to be able to execute the sort of mandate promised. You know that thing that also happened.
don’t worry, we’ll have plenty of time to process the impacts of this when the work camps open up.
I am finding it very hard to not make the “work will set you free” joke since until yesterday it was enough in the past to be both a chilling reminder and a bit funny. But now, I am too concentrated on the potential future.
