(10,173 posts)This election wasn't between two qualified candidates or public servants: It was between a qualified candidate and an orange shithead. I'll probably end up using strong language here and it's not directed at you but the situation:
The choices were clear. The CONTRAST was clear. The "lesser of the two evils"rhetoric because Hillary sent emails from the wrong server and all the talk about Clinton being "flawed" helped drag her to the level of Trump and people swallowed that crap. She ran a decent campaign, she didn't lie on Trump. Could she have won over the flyover states if she had more rallies there? Yeah maybe. But there's also the TV and the internet and other means through which voters can find out simple shit like what a candidate stands for... #NoExcuses
Trump insulted groups, insulted people to their faces, so I am mighty fine with blaming voters for their fuckery instead of Hillary. My doing so doesn't exonerate the hubris of her campaign like Mook ignoring Bill ( supposedly). Still, people willingly chose to allow the election of a shithead because they were ignorant, couldn't be bothered and lazy, narcissistic, plain fucking stupid, racist, sexist and xenophobic or a combination of all those damn things.
How on earth is getting a ton of benjamins for a speech because you're hot stuff the same or worse than an orange jackass, who shits in a gold toilet, stiffing ordinary Americans and who thinks he's too good to pay his fair share in taxes?
The political and moral calculus of millions of voters were fucked up.
