    Imagine supporting a political party so unappealing to a majority of the population, that you resort to blaming them when you don’t win.

      Trump was appealing enough to win. Was it that he was actually good or are a good portion of voters just fucking idiots?

        It is harder to get the bothsidesing done if you think of Repubs as having agency and responsibility for their actions, instead of believing only Dems do. Dems as a collective are also all as bad as their worst member, whom they are all actively colluding with. Repubs are just a few bad apples so we can interpret their actions individually.

        Weak ACA is the Dems’ fault, Citizens United is the Dems’ fault, Donald is the Dems’ fault, Dobbs is the Dems’ fault, Chevron is the Dems’ fault.
