I guess all the “Genocide Joe” commenters aren’t getting paid to skew the election anymore, so they won’t be here to comment.
I haven't seen "Genocide Don" yet. Funny that.
Isn't Trump's middle name James? Genocide James works. And you could Photoshop him trying to look cool, like dark Brandon. But obviously just sad like some 60 year old trying to look cool at the barbeque and failing miserably, but even worse because he's older... And trump.
It's John (which also happens to be a pseudonym he's used). You could say "Genocide John," but nobody would know who you're talking about.
They're still around unfortunately, but they are fewer in number.
Just check the downvote total to see how many accounts are still here.
The bots left, we're left with the dumbasses who believed them.
Bro did you see that articicle about the x whistleblower and how elon influenced the election
I hadn't; any source, by chance (or summarization, if not)?
I found this

There are a few stragglers around still. And just as sanctimonious with their tiresome and reckless high-flying rhetoric about how principled they are....
sigh.
Or, and this is crazy, Biden could have earned more votes for the DNC by using the Leahy Law and requiring Israel to stop committing war crimes if they wanted to continue to receive military aid.
Almost like it's the responsibility of parties and politicians to earn votes in a democratic system. Not the duty of voters to vote for the "correct" party, which is what you see codified in Authoritarian governments. The writers of our Constitution specifically said the reason for having elections so often was to make sure politicians were responsible to the people, not the other way around.
So the more you try to blame the voters, the more you make them not want to vote blue.
