    I’m European who votes green. I want the Democrats to win because that is better for the world. If only you did too.

      I voted for Harris as a way to vote against Trump and Republicans like I do every fucking election despite Dems constsntly shooting themselves in the foot every election where Obama didn’t run. You know, the two elections where they promoted actual hope and progressive change instead of pandering to the fucking centrists and did extremely well and the only time I actually wanted them to win.

      Of course the Republicans obstructed the shit out of that attempt at change and the country learned nothing.

        Good. That gives you the right to whine (which you seem pretty good at).

        The Obama presidency produced some decent outcomes. In democracy you never get everything you want. I agree that the bank-bailout moment was a terrible wasted opportunity.

          Bailout was under Bush. Obama could have reversed course a few months later when he was sworn in, but I’m pretty sure that would have caused an even worse economic disaster.

          You are pretty good at being confidently incorrect.
