    I love how uneducated people didn’t vote at all and allowed a sexual predator and Russian asset to become president, again.

    It’s crazy how liberals hate democracy immediately when their 10 dimensional multi-spreadsheet chess doesn’t work out in their favor because the father of the family of 4 down the street is too stupid to realize that over a 10 year horizon earned income tax credits will have netted him $70k as long as his and his wife’s combined maximum AGI doesn’t go over $64k, and he only has to pays an average rent of $210,000 for that same period as long as his kids are doubled up in the other bedroom of a two bedroom 950sqft apartment. Is it too much for these morons to say you’re welcome. It’s like you still have the rest of your money to feed and take care of your family, kids are cheap right? If not you can just put them to work but make sure that your AGI doesn’t go above $64k otherwise you can kiss that lucrative $7k a year net goodbye. I mean honestly a little thanks should be expected if you can just wait out 12 years and save that $7k you’ll save up 20% of an average home price using today’s prices (don’t ask how much you’ll need for a down payment in 12 years please).

    Are voters stupid?

      I swear you used words but dammed if I can’t find a coherent stream of thought from them.

      if I didn’t know better I’d say most of that was AI generated.

        Yeah it’s really funny because this stream of bullshit is exactly what Democrats offer and what they talk about when they talk about how they affect normal people. By the way this is all literally just tax code mixed with cost of housing averages over 10 years. It quite literally would make sense to anyone who’s ever been a big boy and model citizen by standards that liberal Democrats love to tout, like being smart, doing your own home work, and loving the optimization of spreadsheets about various cost/risk balances in your life.

        The fact that you cannot understand it and blame voters for being stupid entirely shows you cannot live up to that standard. So beyond just a reflexive hatred of democracy, you’re not even a good lib. And maybe, if you cannot even understand the practical application of one of the shining policies that the Democratic party loves to throw in the face of people as an example of how they made their lives better and how they will continue to do so, just maybe you’re also no better than the “voters” who you consider stupid.

        No I’m saying maybe offer people something other than tax spread sheet bullshit, which is generally all the democratic party can ever do. They fucking can’t stop talking about the EITC.

            Who gives a fuck? Harris’ own team knew she was unelectable. This is only a surprise to libs who are so high on copium they cannot read a room.

                If y’all are gonna LARP again as “serious leftists” for 4 years and then put it all down to elect another Joe Biden and go back to brunch then yeah. Sounds like what you want is to not care.

                Also if you haven’t noticed that half of your party now agrees with a core set of Trump policies because Biden/Harris implemented quite literally Trump policies or Trump adjacent policies regarding immigration, national security and trade.

                  That’s not an answer. There’s really only three options here- happy about Trump, unhappy about Trump, or not giving a fuck about Trump. Which is it?

                  Also, which party is my party? Please present evidence for me being in this party.
