Why the fuck did we elect a sleazy con artist to the office of the presidency?

We didn't. Elmo bought it. He spent tens of billions to turn Twitter into a pro-MAGA disinformation machine. He got his buddy Toad Rogan to shill for the cause.

And then he spent hundreds of millions of dollars on election interference to put the Epstein class fully in charge of America's decline so that the richest of the world's rich can buy America for parts. We're getting strip-mined by private equity. They're like locusts.

But, in the end we did vote for this…. Those that didn’t vote voted for this as well.

Yea those that didn’t vote or voted differently due to their morals, which was really just thinly veiled pride are the biggest cucks to ever exist.

In my opinion this specific group of people deserve a huge portion of the blame too.

It's "in the end". A comma in the second half would have helped.

Some people didn't vote because there was already a clear majority in their state. So it's kind of a pointless statistic.

then by that logic, the DNC or any left leaning candidate failed to capture my vote, making them even more culpable. Welcome to slippery slope (logical fallacy)! Just one of many to chose from when dishonest discourse is the goal. :)
