    Who said anything about electing Trump? The only people that say, but Trump are the liberals that think you’ve only got two options. There’s a lot of us that did not vote for top of the ticket and voted downline, top of the ticket was garbage, regardless of which fascist you decided to support

      I can go ahead and call 2028 for you now.

      It’s gonna be the Dem or Rep nominee.

      It is binary. If you believe another outcome is likely, let’s bet money.

        Kalama lost bc voters for who voting is a real burden didn’t show up to vote. They are poor and likely people of color. Fuck off with blaming people.

      We have a voting system that mathematically devolves into a two party system. If you think voting third party will change anything the way the system is set up right now, you’re naive.

      You’re an idiot if you think that not voting for Harris means you didn’t implicitly vote for Trump.

      There were two viable candidates in this election, because that’s how the US election system works. A 3rd party will never win until the entire system changes. Full stop.

        Is it really how that works? No way! Ive literally never heard anyone say that! Definitely not over and over in this thread or anything!

        Thanks internet stranger for solving the third party problem! Not all hero’s wear capes!

      No, the republicans won all three branches so that’s a lie.

      I hope the democrats move hard right next election to target people who actually vote and don’t just sit it out.

        Pretty much why y’all lost 2016 and 2024 but go off
