I literally do blame the Democrats for Trump, and if you don’t, you weren’t paying attention.

Plenty of us were critiquing Clinton’s campaign on those merits and were consistently talked down to in shocker the same way we’re being talked down to now. Shocker, she lost. I remember saying a few weeks before the election “We’re about to get Brexited.” I put my vote down for Clinton, because Trump is fucking insane, and that was clear before he was President. It was clear in the fucking 1980’s.

Being able to critique our leaders is supposed to be what is the difference between us and conservative voters. They’re the cult who unquestioningly believes all the bullshit that comes out of Trump’s mouth and diapers. I find it weird that people think we should be more like them in regards to our leaders like that would be a good thing.

    Ok now that you’ve that, if someone were to look at your comment without any context, what do you think the underlying message is? To me it says “Democrats are bad and only them.” You took the time to criticize the Democrats and only them which implies you have nothing bad to say about the Republicans.

      You know what they say about assuming, right?

      I reject your assertion that I have a responsibility to make every statement of mine comprehensive and chalk full of context, or some political alignment chart. Ridiculous

        In this case, it’s my opinion that you have to do all of that if you want people to stay on the left. You can continue to do whatever you want though.
