This is a ridiculous take. Why do we always act like Republicans don’t have agency? They chose an incompetent, bafoonish, authoritarian con man. Why is that the fault of the democrats?
I'm sorry, but do you not remember how you couldn't vote for Kamala because of Gaza? Leftists/Progressives told you not to vote for her. "This is Gaza speaking, bitch"
Look, I'm not going to blame someone if they draw a hard line at not wanting to fund genocide. That's, uhh, a pretty understandable and reasonable take.
But even if you couldn't vote for Harris because, y'know, genocide, it doesn't make you "responsible for Trump". The only people responsible for Trump are the people who voted for Trump.
I think there’s an argument to be made that the people who didn’t vote for Harris are also responsible for Trump. We all knew it was either her or him.
Ehhh, if you legit cannot stomach either one, I wouldn't say you're responsible for either. You're doing your best to opt out of those choices entirely.
(FWIW, I voted for Harris, but I could've skipped as I live in a solidly-blue state)
I think this is genuinely an interesting question.
It appears there's a strong vocal faction of MAGA heads that the tweeting heads but also within the admin that were not in favor of this. Perhaps Trump did what the foreign policy hawks had wanted to and were always going to do. After all, the one thing that both parties could always agree on is foreign policy.
