If Trump becomes president, blame George Clooney.

Isn’t George Colony like super fucking liberal and an activist?

Not saying that in a negative way I mean wouldn’t he actually be the last person to blame?

Didn’t you know, it’s actually the people critical of a corrupted system that are to blame for said system’s utter failures

Why not blame the Democrat Party? They have refused to entertain the idea that no one really wanted Biden to run again until now, with hardly anytime to get people on board with anyone else. They have done barely fuck-all to get people interested in voting for them no matter who the candidate was as well.

They’re scared to death AOC or Bernie or somebody will get in that won’t play by their rules. If they can’t own the president they don’t want them.

Pfft, your depth of insight could be scratched off with a fingernail.

It’s every person and institution that shielded the voters from the reality of Biden’s mental decline who should be blamed. These enablers ought to be charged with crimes against the US for election interference.

We could have had a real primary and let voters decide, now we’re stuck with a convention nomination process that’s out of our hands.

Fuck the DNC.

(scratches the rest off) Funny, it still says “fuck smug Hollywood types” underneath. I never asked George Clooney for his opinion about Biden’s fitness for office, but I do know that 1) Incumbents are generally selected in the primary by default, and 2) Sowing doubt and dissension about a candidate in the general election is a really good way to sabotage your own party, and Democrats don’t need more help doing that.

I would like to know who intends to replace Biden this late in the game. Kamala Harris seems to be the number one choice, but last I checked, nobody actually liked Kamala Harris. She spent most of her time as vice president hiding from public view, and I’m sure that wasn’t a coincidence. The Dems don’t currently have a rising star in the party like a Bill Clinton or a Barack Obama… Joe Biden was the closest they had, and they just threw him under the bus. The Dems got spooked into throwing away their best chance to beat Trump, and if that costs them the election, yeah, I’ll blame all the grumblers and doubters (both in and out of Hollywood) for making it happen.

The Republicans don’t CARE how mentally impaired, unfit for office, or just plain evil their candidate is… they stand by their man no matter what, and it’s why they win elections. There’s none of that confidence among Democrats… they undermine their leaders with division and second-guessing, and it costs them dearly in the end.

Or, ye know, blame those actually responsible - the DNC (for the past 40 years).
