This election was about democracy versus white supremacy and 70 million people voted for white supremacy.
We needed all 75 million of us to defeat white supremacy.
I have no use for "I told you so." To those of you whom I have implored to stop bashing Democrats and to vote Democratic, thank you for putting ideology aside for a greater purpose. And please, let's try to put the nonsense aside and let's work together to achieve the 99% of the policies on which we agree.
And for God's sake, let's work hard to reduce the numbers of the white supremacists. 70 million is sickening, albeit not enough to defeat us if we have our discipline.
We came way too close to losing our precious democracy. Way, way too close. We should have coalesced in 2016.

Once they see, hes not going to raise their
taxes or even confiscate their property, they will realize hes the decent man, we all see him as.
They will then add in to his popular vote in 2024.

(1,685 posts)Is the most accurate description Ive seen yet on here. Fortunately its would be Orange Hitler and now never will be. Thank God.
And he could be replaced by a more competent facsimile.
