But you are saying: You lost fair and square, wait 4 years to have any say in what is going on.
Re: THE ELECTIONS are how the public weighs in.
When the choice is between Tweedledee and Tweedledum, the public's choice is meaningless.
To say nothing about politicians outright shamelessly lying (e.g. Trump campaigning on 'no more wars').
(Also, political donors are unusually engaged upper-middle-class people which means they are left of the average voter.)
Sorry I didn't invent the idea that there are federal elections every two years, I'm just telling you that you have to win them. Bonus points: this is also how you can change the election schedule or political system!
If you're saying both candidates were bad when one was Trump, and the other was Hillary, Kamala, or Joe, then you don't have very good judgement. I agree Trump lying about not starting a war was bad. Many of us have said for years that he is a terrible liar. Please help us.
Trump is monstrously bad (= force the shit hitting the fan NOW), the democratic alternatives were just 'normally' bad (= continue the same old crap driving the shit closer to the fan, ignoring the looming disaster).
