    Damn, if we held so much power the dems should have done more to court our influence! Too bad they love genocide more than they want to win.

      Literally what I told them, either Leftists didn't make a difference and Harris floundered on her own, or Leftists made a huge difference and Harris intentionally rejected them, failing.

        I've had that same argument, turns into "well if she did that she'd lose more moderates than she'd gain leftists!!1!"

          Tell em that Biden ran a more progressive campaign and churned out voters, same as Bernie, and voter turnout was far higher.

            Not worth it, they're still seething let reality sink in a bit and let them get off "must defend Harris unconditionally" mode

              Nah dunk on them while they're angry. Rub salt in the wound, wash it with iodine or clear alcohol and sterilize it.

      we sneaky leftists tricked the democrat leadership into tacking to the right wing, thereby making it easy to disillusion and dissolve their bloc.

      those smol bean millionaire consultants and party bosses walked right into our trap!
