Yeah, having more than half the US population vote for fascism is the Democrats' fault, obviously. They should have changed their strategy so that people that like fascism vote for them instead of a fascist. Damn Democrats forcing Americans to vote for fascism by making the other half apathetic.
If at least the Democrats would have done enough to get the votes of non-fascists Americans, they could have won and spend another 4 years of status quo.
Go ahead and blame the Democrats because half of the US population has voted for fascism. It's partly right. But it also ignores the fact that whatever the Democrats would do, a very significant chunk of the US population is convinced fascist policies is the way to go.
It is, actually, when they were running a fascist with a blue pin. A tough on immigration prosecutor hanging around with Liz Cheney and promising to continue the Gaza genocide (with trademark democrat speak to make it sound like that's not quite what she said).
Obama bragged about being good at killing people, Hillary laughed aloud about the torture of Gaddafi for the crime of not selling his people to US corporations, Bill Clinton massively incarcerated black people labeling them super predators.
Half the US did vote for fascists, the other half stayed at home.
