Respectfully, now is exactly the time for introspection. And even blame. It's over, there's nothing at stake. Like Bernie, I disagreed with Harris on some things, but I thought she was an overall great candidate running a difficult campaign in an unfairly short window. So I fell in line. I talked to people (gross), I donated, I voted.

There's plenty of blame to go around. The Harris/Democratic Party/Biden aren't perfect, but voters still had a chance to stop Trump & Project 2025 and we failed miserably. So no, I don't think it's infighting to admit this shit isn't working...
