    Legacy?

    This is his and the parties legacy. They made this. it’s a direct result of how first the governed, and then campaigned.

      Exactly. His legacy is not doing what he promised, not being that bridge to the next generation. Only giving up his lust for being president when it was too late.

        Its beyond the scope of my comprehension, how you can call Trump a fascist one week, and then congratulate him winning the next.

          It’s easier when you’re a fascist that only relinquished power when the mob was at the door.

          Is it? He single handedly tanked the opportunity to find a strong Democrat candidate through a primary. After being forced out he repeatedly made comments that saddled Harris with his baggage.

          He’s not 100% to blame, but no one is. He is probably about 30-40% of the problem though.

            I think the voters who voted for Trump are probably at least 90% to blame for Trump being elected by voters into office?

                And I think staying home was stupid. But at the end of the day, i actually don’t care much about Harris losing…Trump winning is what I’m upset with. And sure, there are strategic and comms failings by the Harris campaign that made room for they eventuality, but fundamentally the metastasized cancer is personified by the large number of people who specifically elected this piece of shit. I refuse to absolve voters of culpability for their fucking votes and that’s where the ultimate responsibility lies.

          If you don’t see the direct connection between how Biden has governed and how that set up Trump to win, I don’t know that you can be helped.

            what about muslims, black or even poor white people ? are they worth engaging to you ?

            or anyone else not sipping wine while philosophical-jerking off the way of cronies like pelosi, biden & harris.
