I don’t think blaming voters is a good idea. There were signals that people would be more likely to vote for Harris if she, for example, agreed to stop sending arms to Israel (more than the voters she’d lose by doing that). The campaign ignored that… if they tell you what they want and you ignore it that’s kinda on you. Trying to rehab the Republican party (“Country over Party”) instead of going out there and hammering home her policy, how she would make things better for voters… there were lots of mistakes made.
It is almost always the non-voters that are the problem. In this case it was a combination of demographics that just chose not to vote at all which led to Trump winning.
Yes, I know. Now that the election is over, all those people (I am guessing you were one of them based on your reply) screaming about how voting for Harris means voting for genocide had nothing to do with her losing at all.
After all, telling people not to vote for a candidate only helps them win, am I right?
And we can thank a lot of the “Holocaust Harris” and “Blue MAGA” “don’t vote for genocide” assholes for that too.

Blame the voters? No. I blame the people telling them not to vote for “Holocaust Harris.”
She made a huge mistake by not hammering on Trump’s “Take the guns and figure out due process later,” bit. 2A is a huge issue for the Rs.
They would just think he was talking about the “other” people’s guns
Blue MAGA doesn’t exist
I am aware of this. I think you need to re-read my post.
Devastating: getting caught not reading on the internet
In my defense, I see Blue MAGA thrown around from both sides of the Palestine situation.
No.
We can thank the Dems and DNC who thought accepting millions in Israeli lobbying was worth handing the country to Trump.
It’s the Democrats fault, not the voters.

How’d backing genocide and getting support from war criminals and white nationalists go for winning votes?
But sure it was the people against literal genocide that are the problem.
We didn’t lose because we weren’t running, this loss is 100% on the Democratic Party.
Yes. Yes you are. Because you allowed the guy who said that Netanyahu should “finish the job” on national TV get into office.
You didn’t only make that genocide worse, you let the guy who is going to start genocides of brown and queer people domestically into office.
You can claim you’re against genocide, but you’re only lying to yourself.
That’s extremely rich coming from a Zionist.
I am not a Zionist.
I have never been a Zionist.
A very quick review of my posts will show you that they have been nothing but condemning of Israeli genocide.
I have been working with Jewish Voice for Peace since this genocide began. What have you done?
Edit: 12 hours later… I guess we know what you’ve done about it. Insulted people over the internet.
Fuck no it wasn’t. This is entirely, 100% the fault of the electorate. Get out of here with that trash.
Someone wants 2028 to be a repeat.
Take this opportunity to finally reflect on what everyone has been saying since long before the Dems lost the election.
