I just wish people would stop focusing on something from the past that cannot be undone. And if you voted for Trump and regret your choice and actually have achieved empathy in the process I have no reason to make you my enemy. This is not the time to be going after each other when everyone is going to get fucked. You can silently enjoy someone’s misfortune, but it’s a misfortune that we will all see and experience in due time and it’s not productive for the future we are all going to endure. And right now, whether you are a democrat or a republican, the rest of the world is angry at you. Nobody is going to come and save the US and we need to get our shit together and stop focusing on what can’t be undone.
If you look at polling there is a significant number of republicans that are just as angry as democrats. And we need to help them so they can help us. The only thing blaming and “owning” each other is going to accomplish is that nothing will change. It’s like being on a sinking ship while everyone laughs that the other guy is going to drown while making no effort to get off the boat.
Republicans made an entire industry out of hating democrats way back in the 90s. They’re not going to work with us. Ever. And every time Democrats try to work with them it has ended up badly.
I think this is certainly true of the Republican Party. But ignoring republican voters is political suicide. There are too many of them. They must be reckoned with, one way or another.
They cheered for the party that said they were going to improve things, while the Democrats looked at the abysmal state of America and said “Yeah, things are going well, expect more of the same”.
Stealing Republican voters is a viable strategy, but the Democrats need to address the economic issues that drive those votes, not just buddy up with Republican war hawks like Harris did

Republican oligarchs aren’t going to change. Republican voters can and do.
Class warfare is in full effect and the billionaires need the rest us to stay divided so that they can continue their war on us.
People keep saying Republican voters change, but never enough of them for long enough to make a difference

Trump only got three million more votes in 2024. Harris got six million fewer votes than Biden.
Democrats and independents sat at home because of the lack of a plan to improve things from the Dems.
democrats working with republicans led us to weimar joe and the appeasement era
time for my catchphrase. biden was the best president of my lifetime.
which is so fucking sad. the last good president this country had was imo jimry carter. before that, probably fdr, and before that grant
I don’t see what jimmy carter accomplished to rate him higher than half the ones after him.
