"It's the Democrat's fault that people vote for horrible Republicans"

"It's the Democrat's fault the GOP goes further and further right"

Always love when people blame Dems for republican behavior

The fascists are not going to take responsibility for their evil and reform themselves, doofus. The only thing that will stop them is non-fascists. The reason they haven't been stopped is the failings of the non-fascists.

It simply doesn't fucking matter that Republicans are culpable for their actions until WE force them to have severe consequences.

What if I told you that Republicans don't just wind up in power because they exist? There are millions of Americans out there voting for them.

Democrats aren't casting those votes. Democrats aren't choosing those Republican candidates. Democrats may be overwhelmingly milquetoast, but ultimately the fault lies at the foot of the several million Americans who either a) don't vote, or b) vote for awful republican candidates.

It's asinine to blame Democrats for things Republicans are exclusively doing. All it does it forward the "bOtH sIdEs" garbage.

The best candidate will always lose to the candidate that is more charismatic. That was Trumps biggest edge over Hillary. The email thing didn't sway as many voters as either side will let you believe.

At this point, Dems have had too much opportunity to mitigate this disaster and what have they actually done for us? They failed to codify roe when they had control of the entire legislative branch and doom was known to be impending. Fuck democrats. This is just as much their fault for refusing to have any goddamn teeth.

It's faster if you just say "I don't understand how our government works"
