    At this point. Does it really matter? If the answer is yes, nothing changes. If the answer is no, nothing changes.

    This is how shit is going to be now. No difference is made regardless of the answer to the question. Best to just take note of yet another thing that will happen despite your objection and hope there’s an America worth protecting in 2028.

    Maybe then, enough people will have learned their lesson and decide to actually vote against fascism.

      I’m sure the whiny poohs will find something else to complain about and use as an excuse to sit it out and blame the opposition party.

        There will always be single-issue protest clowns. We can only hope that from this, enough of them will have learned that there are consequences for inaction.

          The fuck does this have to do with Colbert?

          Are you so out of touch that you honestly think you just simply outvote fascism?

          Obama was the seporter I chief. He was king of the drone war.

          The main difference is the flavor. I prefer blue flavored fascism but a change HAS to happen soon and if the Democrats continue to lose its on them. They control the outcome in ina game of numbers at this point and blaming random groups they tell you to is being a useful idiot.

            Did you try following the conversation?

            My goodness, that’s a fine edit you did there my guy! Made me have to go and edit my own just so that it made sense!

            But again, to answer your original question, I’m going to have to ask you to just follow the conversation. It’s not that complicated to see how I arrived at this conclusion.

          Fun fact. Polls show more people who sat out the 2024 election would’ve voted for Trump than Harris. So you can quit blaming folks upset about genocide for Trump’s win.

            And reality shows that if the protest voters had enough common sense to realize our democracy was at stake, Harris would have won.

            I’m not talking about the would-be Trump voters who sat out. I’m talking specifically about the assholes who would have voted against trump, and were given every promise that he would do EXACTY what he is doing now- and still chose not to.

            I’m talking about the fuckwits that knew what we were up against, and decided they’d rather punish an entire country for not producing their depiction of a flawless candidate.
