She is absolutely culpable, though. She let the DNC and Biden kill any chance - and there was a real chance - of victory. She toed the party line, and she lost because of it.
Yes. Exactly. Harris lost, and it is her fault, and her responsibility.
The average American is not a political expert. (Duh.) They rely on information, and persuasion, from the actual political experts, to decide whose policies fit their values and who their best choices as political representatives are.
If a political party has the best policies, but fails to make the case for those policies to the American people, the fault is not with the American people, but with the party that failed to make its case.
In this case, Trump waged a vicious propaganda campaign based on blatant fucking lies. And the Harris campaign was too incompetent or cowardly to effectively call out those blatant fucking lies - partially because Trump was so much better at social media than Harris, and partially because Harris was afraid to stand up for the trans people and immigrants and other marginalized groups Trump was attacking.
(Biden shit the bed so badly nobody in his administration could have won by running on his record, of course, but that doesn’t absolve Harris for her own failures.)
Any political party that starts blaming voters for not agreeing with it, instead of accepting its own responsibility to convince voters, is headed to permanent minority party status. And as happy as I’d be to see the Democrats permanently marginalize themselves and make room for an actual progressive party, right now they’re the only roadblock in Congress against Project 2025.
JFC quit blaming everyone else. This country is fucked because of this dumb shit. We, as a country, are at fault. Not Biden not Kamala, not even Donald. They only have influence because we voted for them.
She did campaign with a Cheney and refused to distance herself from Biden! What else do you fucking plebs want? Someone who actually seems to want to change things for the better?
Yah it’s HER fault we didn’t vote for her…

Everyone who thought that had any equivalence to Trump is why we are here. Asinine.
yes. It absolutely is. FINALLY you get it.

Any argument against this is just cope.

No, it’s your fault for not voting for her.
