I tried to pull the lever but lost to all the people pulling the other way.
It wasn't even exactly that. It was MILLIONS of people who voted Democrat previously just sitting this one out. I don't think there are 15 Million "Gaza or bust" voters so this was just pure ignorance...
"Trump is horrible, but the Democrats made inflation. I'm not voting for either." (Conveniently forgetting COVID and the necessary cash injection that helped keep people paying bills on time and kept businesses afloat to be there to rehire when lockdowns ended.) Ignorance...
Not that it was perfectly executed by any stretch of the imagination, but the alternative was everyone "non-essential" goes broke and businesses everywhere collapse. There was no world where we just didn't do lockdowns, we don't have the luxury of hindsight when something new happens obviously. We probably didn't need the lockdowns because COVID spread regardless :(
Hey, so the 15 million thing isn't true. That was the number before all of the votes came in. She actually gained votes in battleground states, but lost them in non-battleground states (states that didn't really matter). Just a heads up. We need to be using facts here (not trying to attack, just trying to get that information out).
You're right but it's 12 million less than Biden got so your not really establishing anything other than the number was a little less in the final tally. Everything they said is exactly right with 15 million or 12 million.
I appreciate the correction!
