It's cute how people want the dems to put on their cape and save them.

They offered a crime fighter instead of a felon. They offered someone who can identify with four separate disparaged groups and who held 2-3 college degrees. They offered America's mom and dad.

People couldn't come out and vote. America doesn't want them.

Those who voted at all chose an elitist 34-time felon who victimized women, who tried quid-pro-quo for aid relief, incited insurrection and then pardoned people collectively guilty of terrorism and felony murder, stole and hid secret documents, and engaged in keystone conspiracy to avoid prosecution and return of those docs -- and some are still missing. You voted a lock into two branches of government when they already controlled the third. Like, just, how dumb are you?

Please ask yourself what you're entitled to at this point, and maybe change your fucking tone. Start with "sorry" and end with "how can we help"?

Release the downvotes. Begin projecting. Just stop the fucking bleating.

They'll do anything but accept blame for the situation we're in.

Democrats aren't great but lazy non voters are worse. Or those who choose to feel smug voting for third parties who don't stand a chance instead of accepting that things can't be perfect but can be better with a very imperfect choice.

Democrats are far from great, in fact they are pretty evil. I don't see how voting for a party that gets more evil every election is going to make anything better.

I think it's pretty fair to blame the democratic leadership for being evil, and running a terrible candidate, who ran on a terrible platform, rather than blaming the voters who loudly told them what to change to earn more votes.

Yeah, because reality now is soooo much better. /s

Accelerationists are either insane or stupid.

Democrats could change if people voted for them every election and every primary. But that requires work. It's the one thing Republicans did and you can witness how right batshit insane they are because they did just that. AOC put in the work. Shame the bulk of left leaning voters don't do the same.
