My thoughts, and I would really, really love for someone to offer me a sliver of hope.

• They only have to pick a few counties with surprising results and audit those to figure out if there’s a widespread problem worth a more extensive recount, right? I realize that’s still far more work than I probably realize, but I feel like it would be a good litmus test for “there is something here” or “there is not, sorry folks.”

• Anyone have any faith at all that Dems will pursue the actual possibility of fraud with a fraction of the verve that Republicans have pursued fictitious voter fraud?

• I’ve been silently praying that on November 6th someone in Kamala’s circle had already thought of my first bullet point above, that this is already in progress, and they won’t talk about it until they are done, but also see my second bullet point. 😁

I’ve lost every smidgen of respect I had for Americans.

Says the guy who is happy to damn tens of millions of people who didn’t vote for this (not to mention all the kids and such) right along with those who did.

What about his behavior to date makes you think that? I feel like that sounds snarky but I don’t intend it that way.

I’ve been saying what will keep me alive the next four years is reminding Trump voters they are getting what they voted for every time they start to complain.

But, four years of even Republicans having to fight tooth and nail against his insanity would be even better.

Damn, you’re right, she did mention that in one single interview and I had forgotten until you mentioned it.

And yet, if it were an important issue to you, important enough that your vote hinged on it, I’m quite sure you and every other voter could head to google and go “Kamala Harris price gouging” to find out.

The argument is basically “Yes she was doing what I wanted but she didn’t tell me personally so I voted for the other guy.”

At least a furrowed brow.

Fair! But personally it’s my opinion that in all but a vanishingly small number of cases, if someone is sitting on high tens of millions of dollars and on up, I feel very certain that fundamentally this description works:

Literally enriched herself off the pain and suffering of the working class and poor.

While there are people who are underpaid and struggling to eat, there’s not a path to that kind of wealth that isn’t directly or indirectly exploiting their pain and suffering.

Their wealth is itself the evidence.

And he also is overwhelmed by needing to do things in life but not knowing where to start.

You’re a human and you need someone to validate you. I can’t do that from a keyboard, but I can offer an internet hug.

I’m not claiming otherwise.

And you are free to not love him. I’m neither obligated nor motivated to change your opinion. He’s got a wikipedia page. If you consider none of those things accomplishments that’s your right. It definitely does not boil down to a single metric of “how many bills has he passed” though.

Even though you are mostly a troll, I won’t block you because your bullshit is interesting from time to time (same reason I haven’t blocked you up to now) but I won’t reply on this topic again. Good day to you.

You can ask whatever questions you want. It’s a free country for at least another couple months.

Acting like it meaningfully dilutes the work he’s done is kind of bullshit though.

Fucking oil companies are literally going to willfully kill us all in the name of profit if Trump doesn’t beat them to it.

There’s a lot of good advice here. I have a son not too different in age than you. Your post made me want to give you a long hug. I’m sure you have many things about you that are assets and you haven’t had anyone in your life to help you find them.

As others have said, you sound smarter than you think you are, and your writing is good!

Small steps, and celebrate the small victories. Make one little thing better about yourself or your life every day. No matter how small. And be proud of yourself when you’ve done so.

Go take the good advice from others, but here’s a Dad Hug™.

He’s been trying to change the course, but publicly attacking Netanyahu would have drawn a ton of fire from the right,

Thank goodness they avoided pissing off the right, else Trump might have won.

First, keep alienating these voters, sure.

Fuck 'em. What are they gonna do, elect a dictator?

Being the loudest dickheads in the room has been the maga brand since at least 2017 if not slightly earlier. The fuck your feelings party. The party full of the folks no one wants to spend a family get together with or talk to about anything of substance because of their unmitigated ignorant racist and bigoted bullshit.

I’m getting a little sick of being told we need to mollycoddle them while they continue jamming their fingers in everyone’s eye at every opportunity.

Edit-

Yes yes I don’t think that’s relevant to the bit I responded to.

Honestly call or email the Democratic party offices and voice that you one hundred percent agree with Sanders.
