    Or you could have just not supported a genocide so that people would vote for you. Stop blaming the electorate for your own failings. No one is obliged to vote for you. Especially when you have terrible policies like funding a genocide.

      I hate to break it to you but that would not have turned the election. Sorry to spoil the delusion but this election didn’t turn on Palestine. It was the economy. I’ll go dig up links for you if you are that lazy.

        Kamala needed every vote she could get. Foolishly throwing away the votes of leftists and progressives is just stupid. Whether or not it was enough to change the election though is stupid. The proof is in the pudding. Kamala ran on doing nothing in Gaza and she lost.

          She ran in a country full of stupid muther fuckers is the problem, if you ask me.

          Edit: I say that as an American. I’m ashamed more of us are not smarter than this. Now Palestine suffers worse and I didn’t think that was possible. I’m heartbroken for the Palestinians. Even more because of Trumps win. It was already fucked and now it is next level. I don’t think most folks realize the scope of what has happened.
