It frosts my freckles when I see someone on DU write "we brought this on ourselves" or something like that. I doubt that any DUers brought this on. I know I didn't. I worked in the DNC field offices for the last three elections. I walked door to door. I worked phone banks. I lived, ate, slept and continue to breathe democratic policies and principles.

With every fibre of my being, I have (for decades) railed against republican rhetoric, matched their lies with the facts and taken the hits for being "liberal."

I did not bring this on. Doubtful that any Democrats feel that they brought this on. Let's stop beating ourselves up for something we never supported in the first place and fight against every day.

This bastard had help stealing this election. And every day since then, he's gotten a pass by the spineless, souless, ball-less republicans in Congress who sold themselves into fealty to this shit stain. He's had a lot of help. And none of it was ours.
