    Millions of people who voted for Biden in 2020 didn’t show up to vote for Harris in 2024.

    Trump’s numbers barely changed at all between the two.

      And I can’t say that I blame them. Biden’s presidency… or his campaign… or Harris’ campaign…

      It was a shit-show all the way through. Maybe next time the Democrats should try catering to their voter base.

        “I know fascism is bad, but I understand allowing it - I mean, look how uninspired the other option was!”

        Yeah, this is exactly why we’re in this position.

        19 Million primary voters picked Biden in 2024.

        He won the primary, as has every incumbent for many many decades.

        We failed them, not the other way around.

        It doesn’t imply anything, it’s a fact that Voters chose fascism and now they’re facing the consequences.
