You won't have a hard time arguing that Donald Trump is a massive piece of garbage, but your comment presumes that Kamala Harris and the Democratic party are entitled to votes.
You'll find there is a large portion of the Democratic base who are not motivated to vote for a pro-genocide candidate, which is exactly the entire point of this poll. The Democratic party needs to do better and stop fighting against the progressive wing of the party if they ever want to regain the trust of working class people. At a bare minimum you would expect them to respect international law. Then again, they're doing exactly what AIPAC and defense industry paid them to do, same as the Republicans.
My comment presumes her opponent was a rapist fascist dictator. But that wasn't enough for Americans.
And the Democratic Party isn't going to do better because it will only exist in name only from now on. You and others got what you wanted. Now you're going to have to live with the consequences. If you live.
As someone who voted for her, if you could stop blaming others for having strong feelings regarding who they give their vote, that'd be very chill. At this point I am pretty comfortable telling you that you're causing more division and strife than you are helping. And, as far as I last understood, you're out of here, right? If you could do me a favor and stop demotivating those of us trying to stick it out and fix it, I'd take it as a kindness.
