    Trump has made it so he can send in feds to quell protests. Trump has attacked and reduced our first amendment rights in ways Kamala never would have. Trump has implemented project 2025 policies, Kamala simply would not have. We are the closest we’ve ever been to a dictatorship.

    Your choice was lesser evil and greater evil, you chose to allow the greater evil to win. I can’t think of anything worse for the Palestinians, but people like you refuse to acknowledge that your grievances were not worth allowing Trump to win. You people are the enemy of the common good.

      you chose to allow the greater evil to win

      I voted in New York, so your attempts to make this personal are especially stupid.

      Not to mention there isn’t one single state in 2024 where 3rd party voters would have made Kamala win. Not one, even if you include the lolbertarians (who weren’t going to vote for her).

      your grievances were not worth allowing Trump to win

      The only people who allowed Trump to win were Democratic leadership. Who pushed a senile codger in in 2020, then in 2024 ran a failed candidate who has never won a single delegate in a primary. And who after that, continued to support the Biden administration’s policy of supporting genocde, despite internal polling showing that could lose the election.

      Your anger shouldn’t be directed at me and the rest of the left, who had only the mistake of being proved right. Your anger, if you’re actually upset about Trump and the GOP’s agenda, should be with Democratic leadership. Who is continuing despite these failures.

      This was no surprise to me - I started making plans to leave the US when it became apparent Biden would win the nomination in 2020. Because it was obvious that either in 20 or 24 the GOP would have power, because that’s what the centrist Dems do.
