DAMMIT, you're all overthinking it. [View all]

I see many posts about how Dems used the wrong messaging, how we can't believe that so many people fell for Trump. Well, let me make it clear and simple.

With pictures in fact.

Why?
1. THEY VOTED FOR RACISM AND MISOGYNY, USING EGGS OR WHATEVER AS A COVER.
In the past it was Willie Horton, it was Joe Biden's age, any excuse to cover up their racism.
Did age really matter?
Without racism and misogyny there IS NO Republican party since Lee Atwater and the "Southern Strategy"

Why the hell else would slobs just squeaking by vote for the rich?

How?
2. THEY FELL FOR THE YEARS AND. YEARS OF "24 BY 7 BY 365" LIES.

And for what?
3. FOR THE LOVE OF THE GOD OF MONEY

Churches have sold out. There IS NO moral fiber in "Team Scum"

THEY WILL DO ALL THEY CAN TO GET YOUR EYES OFF THE PRIZE.
Look at my thumb, Gee, you're dumb.

Clickbait can wait.
Our cause is great.

Unite and fight.

"get rid of the electoral college" is a pipe dream when the party can't take Congress and the presidency muriel_volestrangler Dec 12 #28

So when do we aim? BOSSHOG Dec 12 #30

When there's a persuadable number of people in state legislatures and in Congress muriel_volestrangler Dec 12 #32
