I'm largely disappointed in them. The one time they were needed the most, they didn't care to show up. Like, you do not have to be knee deep in politics to understand what's at stake and who's running. Take a good solid 30 minutes out of your life, to research and study the candidates, the issues and think of the future of the country's direction if either candidate and their party got voted in.
If they'd do just that, they'd probably have a better understanding. But they didn't do that. They thought the 2024 election was in the bag and feel they didn't need to do their part. Well, the results speak for themselves.
And nothing much more needs to be said or done, they've sentenced themselves to the mess that's to happen a week and a half from now. Just as much as all of the brainwashed and braindead conservatives who actively voted for fascism.
Are you saying the 2020 presidential election wasn't the most important one ever? Because that's not what everyone was saying.
