(57,760 posts)Actually I haven't seen any Stein voter or anyone pretending to be "progressive" or on the left express regret about putting Trump in office. I've seen them insist they were right to vote for Trump/Stein/Johnson/write-in or make some other ratfuck move. I've seen them announce a determination to continue to refight the 2016 primary all the way through 2020. I've seen them insist that any criticism of Stein and Trump voters was "divisive," all while they insult Democrats and work to harden divides.
Not only that, we've seen a planned "counteroffensive" by the fascists at JPR to take over DU in order to continue fighting that fucking 2016 primary. These are the same people who defended and continue to defend Trump, who deny the immigration raids ripping apart families are consequential, who make excuses for the Muslim ban, and insist that there is nothing new about seeing Nazis march through the streets chanting "Jews will not replace us," mowing down protesters with cars, and having the POTUS defend those same Nazis. These are the same people who insist there is "no evidence" of Russian interference in the election, even after they promoted the Pizzagate pedophile ring story and continue to insist Hillary Clinton killed Seth Rich. They are the very worst the human race has ever produced, and I don't want them anywhere near this place.
Just today, I saw one on Twitter say he was glad that Trump won. They are happy about what is happening to America because this is exactly what they voted for.
