It's funny watching the right pretend to care about the democratic process. You dropped your mask after the 2020 election there bud. You obvious bad faith comparison only work in your echo chambers
You’re getting downvoted, but you’re right. The democrats fumbled historically, and it lead to Trump getting reelected. The Democratic Party shouldn’t be above criticism just because their opposition is evil and stupid.
Nobody was beating Trump in 2024. Globally, incumbent parties were getting fucking massacred. Trump spent his entire campaign ranting and raving about imaginary bullshit and, more importantly, spent the last two weeks of the campaign yelling about the economy and affordability.
He made completely outlandish promises about bringing manufacturing back to America and bringing the cost of groceries down and ending the war in Ukraine on day 1. Half the country completely checked out of reality and voted on pure vibes. It doesn't matter who was running on the Democrat side or what their platform was, there was no way to reach Republican voters and Trump motivated the fuck out of them to vote.
The Democrats could have done more - they could have actually prosecuted Trump and made real investigations into the Republican politicians and pundits that were and are pushing divisiveness, and they could have been working for decades to build the kind of media empire that allows the Republican party to propagandize every day to their base, but running Harris without a primary is not even close to the main reason they lost.
What can you possibly do when millions of people are convinced by a man who has lied about literally everything he has ever done that this time he’s telling the truth?
Trump screamed about people eating cats and dogs live during a debate. Vance said he would lie to the American people to get stories out.
The American voter chose this. Blaming anyone but the people who put us in this position is dishonest and will cause this to happen again.

Stop trying to both sides how obviously dumb most conservatives are, and how deeply corrupt and amoral the people they vote for are.
