Enjoy the self-satisfaction of having taken the high road while the concentration camps get built.

And what did you want her to tell people to march to the capitol and hang the vice president being willing to certify the election?

Nah, Americans voted for Trump and his fascism, his racism so let them have it.

I agree… did they expect her to start a socialist revolution? As if they would march to the capitol for her when they wouldn’t even show up to vote?

I’m glad she’s setting an example of normal adult human behavior, it’s hard to even call it the “high road”… It’s just NOT acting like a toddler. We can’t afford to have a January 6th every four years.

We can still try to obstruct via filibuster and other mechanisms. (Republicans have already shown us how to do it effectively.) But certainly no progress can be made for the next four years.

2 years. In 2026, 20 Republican Senators will be up for re-election.

You’re putting far too much faith in the voters at this point.

Depending on how the cost of living situation goes, Trump is either going to take credit for improvements set in motion before his 2024 term, or he’s going to astronomically tank it and blame it on the previous administration. No matter which happens, he will frame it to make himself look better than the Democrats while the MAGA crowd eats it up.

As if Republicans won’t eliminate the filibuster. They have no use for it because they don’t plan on being in the minority ever again.

Shes fine with it.

Every stance she took will be adhered to, and she is going to get the Republicans in the cabinet that she wanted so bad.

Somehow I think the person who would have been the first female president is not “fine” with losing to Donald Trump.

If she really cared, maybe she would have declined the AIPAC money, set a redeemable platform, and sunk one of the easiest wins in US history.

She didnt do that though. Did she?

It’s not a matter of “not caring” to win. She miscalculated and campaigned wrong. Did Trump lose in 2020 because he didn’t care to win?

You’re in an echo chamber if you think the general population cares that much about the situation in Gaza. Funny how all you talking heads hyperfocus on this one aspect that most people don’t care enough about.

If you truly cared about it, then you would understand that Trump is going to be oh so much worse.

You and your ilk are a one note song.

Of course she made a concession speech. Because Democrats are constitutionally unable to accept the reality we voted into power 2016.

The party deserves extinction.

You’re just as bad as the stop the steal trumpers when you ignore the election. You need to accept the loss, you don’t have to just go back to doing nothing though. You can work to recruit voters to your side for the next 4 years instead of just the few months before.

I agree and stand the same. He is not and never was eligible to be a president. He is a fraud, a chronic liar and nothing else. I have zero respect for any of the three letter agencies in accepting his presence and with them, any of the “'supreme court judges” because they are not either. Not now and never.

America is Dead. This is but a corpse and those are maggots.
