You didn't like Harris' position on Israel? Well Trump is about to let Bibi unleash hell. You didn't like the lackadaisical approach to women's reproductive rights by the Dems? Well Trump will now hammer through a national abortion ban. You didn't like the immigration system? Well Trump is about to open hunting season on asylum seekers. You weren't enthused by Harris? Well Trump is about to reshape government and the courts so any freedoms you thought minorities held (especially LGBTQ) are certain to be eliminated all together. But you stood on your principles and didn't vote! Yeah, you sure showed everyone... what a ####ing idiot you are and how badly you don't understand how the political process works.
Dems didn’t lose because progressives and minorities stayed home, they lost because they failed to connect with middle America and the working class, again.

But keep screaming at the minorities you hate but pretend to like when you think they’re useful to you and see where that gets you.
