They won't have time for that, it will be a time to come together and defend against any horrible shit Trump throws their way and the rest of the world. Personally, I'm going to be too focused on watching Ukraine die to give a shit about who is to blame for losing. Imo, if Harris doesn't win then I don't think any Democrat could have won and it was inevitable. But if Harris does win, I promise I won't come in here and mock doomers, I just don't think it's healthy to take the stance that she has already lost and give up before even reaching the finish line when it's neck and neck. Use the fear to donate, volunteer, or convince people even harder to vote but don't tell them "We've already lost" because that helps nobody. It's not just America at stake, Europe and Ukraine is counting on you too. This is the most passionate I've ever been about an America election, Lol. Get some fire in your bellies and like I said, don't become complacent, the fear is good, use that fear to fuel yourselves because of what is at stake but you need to balance yourselves. As much as it doesn't help to say Harris wins easily, it doesn't help to say Trump has already won. |
Harris will win and I will tell you why.
One common theme of the past few months among news reporting from a Democratic angle has been about providing a permission structure for Republican voters to go blue this election. Topics like how Liz Cheney's endorsement could be it, stuff like that. Ultimately, very boring. And also wrong in its premise, because nobody in their right mind needs a permission structure to do the right thing.
But more importantly, nobody needs a permission structure in an election process that is secret. Suppose you are a Republican who fears to admit that they voted for Harris, what are you going to do? You vote for her and lie about it in your circle of friends, because you want to continue to hang out with them. It's that simple. Because as far as I know, being registered as a Republican voter does not force you to vote for a Republican ticket nor does it obligate you to tell the truth about who you voted.
I probably didn't need to quote your post, but meh. The point is that the Republican party has become so extreme that people are now afraid to admit that they didn't want to support racists and fascists.
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.
