    Not sure I understand 12 years or longer? There are more liberals, moderate liberals than conservatives.

    They hate the corporate media and establishment politicians.

    I have never voted for Trump. However, 72 million people did this year, many of whom were women.
    It's probably time for the Democrats to stop blaming the voters and start thinking of ways they can improve.
    I think that goes for both parties, but unfortunately, the winning team never looks to change things until they get their asses kicked.

    How do you figure? The national elections swing back and forth every 4-8 years. As for our local elections here on the West Coast, let me know when we move to the right.

    Look how many states who voted for Trump also voted for increasing abortion rights.

    Yeah....and there's very fine people on both sides. C'mon, the way you stretch yourself to always try and take both sides of an issue has to be painful AF. Because sometimes there is only one side to an issue. This is one of those times. And you are absolutely correct! Facts no longer matter. Trump is a convicted felon and adjudicated sex offender. And 70 million people didn't give a fuck. Try giving a female (or even a male) and unwanted pat on the ass and see where it gets you. I'm not sure who the naive one is here.

    But they have no problem with misinformation social media outlets, podcasts, “news” networks etc. Newsmax and Fox are A-OK. CNN the devil. Cruz Rubio etc who are career politicians are also OK.

    Several women have claimed he sexually assaulted them/attempted to tape them.

    Either way it is fucking wrong and is behavior that cannot be condoned or defended.

    Just because they voted for him over Harris does not mean they didn't care. But you just can't run anyone for president and expect to win. A few people in their party decided that she was the best candidate. It was a mistake.

    Doesn't matter. Both are disgustingly wrong and cannot be condoned or defended.

    She certainly should have picked Shapiro. I was surprised she didn't. I expect it had to do with the war in the middle east and him being Jewish.

    True yet both parties have when it is their candidate being accused.

    I've never condoned or defended that regardless of party or who did it.

    Wow. Convenient time to ‘realize’ this, after you’re done supporting her. Kinda little anti semitic of her, innit?

    Mark Kelly was her best shot. Astronaut, wife survived an assassination attempt, good speaker, masculine in the ways they thought Walz would come across as. Arizona was more important than Minnesota too, obviously...

    I was saying she should have picked him before she picked Tim. I was surprised he wasn't the choice. She picked Tim and lost. It is what it is.

    I think she didn't want to lose votes from Gaza supporters. I don't think she was being an antisemitist.

    She also chose Tim because he was relatable and blue collar. Wasn't good enough.

    I was not saying you did. I was pointing out that both parties have.
