    The blame the Democrats deserve is secondary by about a half marathon. There’s nazis about, boy!

    And that still leaves room for a lot of blame. But no, the underperforming firefighters are not at fault for the fire, the arsonist is.

      The arsonist in this scenario would be the corporate Democrat consultants and Kamala herself. You run the same campaign in 4 more years and you’ll get another Republican. It is time for self-reflection and people to demand change in the Democratic party. Failing to do that is exactly why Trump got re-elected.

        What got Trump elected is climate change increasing pressures in hundreds of domains, making people fearful and easy to manipulate. It’s happening the world over. Blaming whoever opposes Trump for not doing it quite right is another flavor of copium.

          I agree, but what do you do about that? I’m not out here geo-engineering albedo shit to still climate change.

          So where does the blame go? I think at status quo Dem leadership when people are genuinely anxious and struggling. Maybe Kamala did the best she could for who she is, but the DNC should have been retired when Obama won
