Comment on Are Americans Actually Idiots?
IndieGoblin@lemmy.4d2.org 5 days agoListen to their voter base? You mean take an unpopular stance on an issue that doesnt rank in the top 10 for any group of Americans. Oh wow you’ve got amazing political insight. They were already on the correct side of that issue.
They did prosecute trump. Trump won the election and corruptly cancelled it.
But yeah keep telling me how its a hard choice between the side thays actually improving conditions for people and the corrupt dictator. Fucken moron.

Had them forcing Joe Biden to run while he was clearly unfit to, they pretty much guaranteed themselves not to win. Also, why no primary? It obviously WAS in the top 10 issues of their voting base because they didn’t win.
Also, Several Democrats have voted with Republicans to support funding bills backed by President Trump, including notable figures like Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Senator Dick Durbin.
So yeah I’d vote democrat over the republican party, but I think a third party winning and gaining support is long, long overdue.
You can call me a moron all you want, if you are happy with the way things are keep voting for the only two parties we have had that both contributed in making it this way. Again, since you are unable to understand this I do not support republicans, I think democrats are better. However, I think both are long overdue to be extinguished with better options presented.

No dude I’m just being objective about it.
I will gladly vote democrat every time they run against republicans because they are better. However, that doesn’t mean that they have our best interests in mind because they do not. They just have better interests in mind for us than republicans.
All that said, a third party that would actually have teeth is absolutely needed. You notice how 7 democrats voted in favor of trumps ice bullshit? You notice how except for a few Democrats like Nancy Pelosi they all get hard ons and vote in favor of expanding warrantless surveillance laws? You notice how they had four god damn years to do something about the Epstein files and didn’t do shit? Obviously Republicans went out do their way to cover it up and that’s worse and old fuck face trump is all in them but my god man, they had 4 fucking years to blow the lid off that shit and they DID NOTHING.
So yes, I wish we could have another more effective option. At this point its like asking “would you rather go live with the uncle who molested you or the grandfather that apologizes on his behalf and let’s him still come over sometimes?” I mean shit, I guess the one that let’s him come over sometimes. That’s better than the other option, but still isn’t great.
