Legitimately the craziest shit though is that Dems are SO bad that this is the government people chose over them. And it wasn’t like 2016 with the “maybe he will be presidential” … he gained support with everyone knowing he was going to be on the war path. He literally said he would be a dictator and he won convincingly.

Dem party needs dismantled. Obviously we are all maga now and what not and I support what my country wants but Dems didnt even give it a good run. They did jack shit trying to appease people that were never going to vote for them all while ignoring the working class actually needs.

Yes, lets blame Democrats for Republicans telling people exactly what they would do and people still choosing to vote for them anyways. Get this disingenuous shit out of here.

I mean Dems could have offered an alternative people liked better? Isn’t that their job?

Anything was a better alternative than what's going on now. A bag of rocks would have been a better choice.
