        I know neolibs like to blame everyone and everything but themselves but even if 100% of the protest voters voted for Harris, she still would have lost.

          If every protest voter and third party voter was for Harris, she would have still lost in the landslide.

          Turns out having horrid policies, saying “I’m not going to change from the person in office no one currently likes, except emulate Trump more”, doesn’t work. Who knew you had to be popular in a national popularity contest?

    Maybe the political party should have conformed to the pressure of the people who vote in its party. Just saying.

      Dems would rather lose than appeal to what americans actually want.

      Also funny to imagine protest voters being powerful enough to sway the election but not powerful enough for Dems to listen to
