That was an option after 2016. Not anymore.

What a dumb opinion. So instead we should just push them further and continue losing? Great idea.

Fight them, but you don't hurt anyone else by punishing them for improving. You hurt yourself. We should give people reasons to come to our side, not tell them they can never join our side because they weren't this time.

We should give people reasons to come to our side,

You say this and then there are people who say democrats were dumb to try to court the moderate republicans.

Clearly nothing that DNC can do will ever be right so fuck it.

"When they go low, we go high" worked has brilliantly for your country, hasn't it?

It's clear that these fuckwits will beat you up if you try to help them. Let them choke on the consequences of voting for a vengeful, racist, rapist conman. Maybe then they'll learn how fucking stupid they were.

Yes! When you land in jail a second time you should never be able to get out again!!!1!eleven!!!

Trump didn't land in jail as he should've

Also, giving him presidency for the second time is not equivalent to failed rehabilitation.

Jesus I can pick apart this stupid as fuck strawman analogy in dozen different ways but you're too stupid to get it.

Yes it's very different, people who voted for trump twice didn't even do something illegal.

What my criminal strawman and trump voters have in common is that they repeated mistakes and i strongly belive that there always should be a path for forgiveness
