Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I 10000% blame the Jill Stein voters and non voters
But not the 73 million people that wanted this explicitly?
Of course those too. Thought thats obvious
Most of them at least (misguidedly) think they are doing the best thing for themselves/the country. Non-voters just couldn’t be bothered to take any responsibility at all.
A lot of them thought it won't be that bad, or it's just a bluff.
Wow, what an incredibly stupid point to make.
We didn't win the race because we only put two wheels on the car. yEAh BuT whAT iF ThE fiNish linE WasNT So FAr FRoM THe StaRt...NoT thE RaCE TeaMs FAUlt.
Really? You wouldn't blame the millions of people that explicitly voted for a convicted, fascist criminal?
If Americans had any sense the race would've been between Stein and Harris, not between Harris and someone who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a presidency.
Its obv. Trump voters are to blame. Just as much the non voters and Stein voters.
Trump got more votes than every other party combined. I blame the Trump voters.
Be sure to add in the protest non voters. Because all 100,000,000 of them cost us the election in 2016 as well.
Thats obvious. But I blame the non voters and third party voters just as much. They are no an iota better than any MAGA voter.
Well, mathematically, non-voters ARE trump voters in that election.
Yeah and they should be treated the same way.
Would those votes have mattered? Last I checked on Nov 5 only 70k votes went to 3rd party and the gap between Harris and Trump was much greater
The 20 million people who voted Biden but not Harris would have mattered. Non voters are the same kind of trash as MAGA
3rd party defenders coming out of the woodwork. Sorry you are all to blame. Let's make it easy for these fools and just say "everyone who didn't vote blue" instead of "3rd party and nonvoters". Put all the garbage in the same garbage bag.
Basic math tells us that you haven't the capacity to actually comprehend the situation.
Sit this one out Blue Maga Guy.
And you are correct for doing so.
You should blame yourself for not pushing the democrats to take a principled stance against Israel, or any kind of benefit for working people, or anything at all that would inspire people to vote that wasn’t the gun of fascism to their heads.
“It’s HER turn” didn’t work for Hillary and it wasn’t going to work for Kamala.
You may now proceed to gloat in your self-satisfaction and continue to not unionize your workplace, not join a mutual aid group, not join the SRA and be flabbergasted next time your efforts to tell people online to VOTE have the same effect.
Why would I blame a german for democrat actions? I blame the voters in the US who chose fascism over democracy. These are Trump voters, Stein voters and non voters. They ensured there will never be a free election in the US again.
And are you stupid? How can a german in germany join any of these organizations? You really are the dumbest person I argued with about this. You try to attack me personally and fail embarrassingly because you know nothing about you.
From the tantrum you throw it looks like you are one of these vile pieces of garbage that didnt vote. Steigbügel Halter des Faschismus.
Because he is a moron with a talking point.
You are a fool to think fascism wasn't already here under either democrats or republican. Democrats just put nicer lipstick on.
Learn what fascism is. Democrats are flawed. They are not totalitarian ultra nationalist far right
I implore you to do the same.
How many delegates did Kamala win in the primary?
Who voted for her to be the democratic candidate?
After you are done sifting through excuses I hope that you are able to aee the truth.
