Democrats continuing to blame everyone but themselves, as usual.
The Democrats could have run a turd as a candidate with the slogan "it'll be a shit show" and I'd still have voted for them with no regrets, because I understand that fascism is an existential threat. If the Democrats are to blame in any way, it's because they didn't try to get people to understand that OH WAIT THEY DID.
Should the Democrats have run a better candidate and a better campaign? Obviously yes. Is it their fault that voters were willing to let a fascist win? Not even a little.
So, what's the takeaway here? Next time we should nominate better voters? Good luck with that. I think we should nominate candidates who can energize the voters we have.
