The democrats haven’t held a legitimate primary since 2008!

In 2008 it was a genuine competition between Obama, Hillary, and a handful of other lesser known politicians. Obama won the general in a landslide.

In 2012 Obama ran unopposed. Obama won the general.

In 2016 the democrats rigged the primary against sanders for Hillary, and to absolutely no one’s surprise who was paying attention, Hillary lost the general. Why? she didn’t genuinely win the primary. Shocking!

In 2020, refusing to learn mistakes from 2016, the democrats once again screwed over bernie and didn’t run a legitimate primary - rigged it so that all the candidates except no-path-to-win Warren exited the race to split the progressive vote away from bernie. Joe biden won by the skin of his teeth, and he would of lost if it weren’t for the country reacting to trumps handling of covid.

In 2024, once again refusing to learn the democrats didn’t even bother with a primary, ran an old demented geezer as a presidential candidate, realized that wasn’t going to work, and then anointed unelected Kamala Harris who didn’t even need to compete in a primary.

And they’re shocked they lost?! These people make way too much money to be this stupid.

    Harris doesn’t support shit except whatever the military industrial complex wants. She speaks out of both sides of her mouth and lacks any original thoughts of her own at all on any issue let alone Israel.

    Both candidates want to turn Palestine into glass and then oceanfront vacation homes for rich Zionist NYC metro area assholes who aren’t content with just stealing homes.

        I didn’t vote for trump, and my state went to Harris.

        Enjoy the eventual blowback that comes from supporting Israel’s bullshit. Those beeper terror attacks, or the use of ai to surveil and jail the populace for thought crime is only a matter of time before that tech gets used against Americans on American soil.

        Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds. It’s like you just can’t hold democrats accountable for throwing all of us under the bus rather than run electable candidates that go through a legitimate primary process.
