    3 days ago, it was going to be the last election, the ultimate election, the end times, the end of democracy. Now we’ll be fine?

    Pre-election Dems and post-election Dems cannot both be right. One of the two is lying.

      it’s just that democrats give republicans too much good faith and try to be the better people; both things can be true.

        So… pre-election Democrats were not being the better people??? I really don’t get this.

        I am convinced that Project 2025 is coming to your country and that trumpism is the most dangerous modern day neo-fascist strain. I actually believe the pre-election Democrats. You don’t appease fascism, you don’t give it good faith, you resist it, you fight it, you crush it.

        This about-face of the post-election Democrats is insane and it feeds directly into the “boy who cried wolf” narrative that the Right is pushing. Not to mention they are normalizing trumpism.

          pre election democrats were literally warning about everything that has been planned since tuesday…

          the point is democrats always go the high road with “ok we must work together” regardless of what evil shit republicans do because they put too much (imo) trust in the jimmy stewart era
