I hear you, the issue for me is that a third of your country people voted for the cunt, another third didn't care enough not to vote against the cunt, which leaves a large majority of Americans complicit in this - enough in my view to effectively use the term as a blanket reference to most people in the country.

Speaking on a more granular level, I wish you well and the best of luck - but the majority of your population can go fuck themselves.

Don't think for a second we dont feel a strong flood emotions when we see the 66% of Americans who are a complete drain on the people around them face consequences for their actions(or inaction). The fact is, it doesnt happen nearly enough and it never changes anything.

I voted for Kamala Harris. Never liked that orange fuck.

A third did not vote for him. The popular vote was something like 51 to 48, which is insanely close. And a record number of people didn't even vote.

It's more like 1/6 voted for the asshole, and then the dems gave up the win before the night even ended.

Not voting was tacitly supporting Trump.

Anybody who "didn't even vote" is responsible for this. At least the 1/6 are trying to hide their guilt behind excuses. Eff all fascists, of course, but hey, at least that subsegment of them aren't lying to themselves about it.

Okay I don't think bombing Iran is a partisan issue in America. It's more like a third supports this, half doesn't care enough to act and the remaining sixth is too busy convincing itself that genocide is good if it's the lesser evil. The guilt for this crosses party lines by a fair bit. I mean hell, the only vocal opposition to this is coming from people like MTG and Tucker Carlson, not anyone from the Dem political establishment.

That's not relevant. The fact is this entire situation is developing this way because Trump is both extremely willing to go along with Israel and terrified of looking weak.

That he would give Bibi everything he wanted and make the situation worse was both known from his actions last time and a common warning to "the Dems are just as bad" delusional morons during the campaign, to their protests.

And now here we are. Delusional morons are still out there, still in denial and still entirely wrong.

Bombing Iran and letting Israel dictate American foreign policy are two things with strong bipartisan support.

Hillary Clinton campaigned in 2008 on the promise to bomb Iran. Biden couldnt even bring it over himself to enforce a demand for Israel to no starve Gaza to death and let Netanyahu humiliate him in public multiple times. And Biden/Clintons are the ultimate Democrats establishment.

A lot of people didn't vote for him. A lot of people didn't vote for democrat either. A growing number of people are voting for third parties now. Not enough to sway the vote, but enough to make a statement.

I think, in my lifetime, we will see a third party finally elected. The leading parties just aren't cutting it anymore.

Yeah, the 3rd party voters are complicit in Trump's actions, as are those who didn't vote in protest.

When one candidate straight up says they'll be a dictator on day one, anything but voting against them is supporting their actions.

Say it louder for those in the back plugging their ears and saying both sides are the same.
