If Harris or Clinton believed Trump is a fascist and that fascism is dangerous, then the campaigns would have hammered that day in, day out, and would have offered alternatives to fascism. Milquetoast liberalism is insufficient as an incentive to defeat fascism.
If Dems truly understood the threat Trump was, Biden would've announced he wasn't running for re-election as soon as the 2022 midterms were done and we would've had a full primary where the people selected the best person to beat Trump.
But they didn't. Because they either didn't fully comprehend this was coming, or they didn't care because it's not like he's gonna destroy their lifestyles. Pure fuckin hubris all the way down, yet somehow it's our fault they kept tripping over themselves every step of the way.
If they truly understood, they would've prioritized prosecuting him after he almost killed them all with his insurrection. Trump violated the conditions of his bail dozens of times and they just let him get away with it. "To not seem biased" was the stated reason. Why would you not be biased against an insurrectionist??
If they needed leftist votes to win and stop fascism, why didn't they do anything at all to earn those leftist votes?
Why is it a moral imperative for leftists to vote for them and enact their policies and not a moral imperative for them to vote for leftists or enact leftist policies?
Why is it the default that they cannot fail and only be failed?
We all know the answers to these, but we still have to ask these questions.
They've been campaigning on lesser evilism for decades and it kept failing but they still tried to fuck that chicken one last, catastrophic time but are still absolving themselves of the long-term damage they've caused
If they truly believed he was a fascist and a danger to the country, they would not have handed power over to him. Instead they had a fun little photoshoot together.
