As the saying goes, voters get the government they deserve. Don’t like the current administration? Direct your ire at the two thirds of American voters who made it happen. 🫠

I personally can’t believe 85,000,000 eligible voters experienced four years of this moron and still thought sitting at home on Election Day was a good idea. 🤷♂️

Sure. Public projects just hire those people with public funds to carry out the task. No need to “developers” to get a cut.

Seems like you didn’t understand so I was just trying to help you out. Oh well, I’m sure things will work out for the US without citizens taking rightful accountability for their actions on Election Day. It’s worked out so well thus far. 🤷♂️

Even if we take that as fact, which we can’t, the most generous reality based analysis puts the “fuckery” count at around 5 million. 85 million didn’t vote.
I’m sure you can tell which one is the bigger factor. I’ll give you a hint: it’s the one 17 times larger than the other.

You’re not wrong but they who the people elect decide the definition and priorities regarding “public good”.
Long story short: elections have consequences.
Try to remember that if there’s another legitimate election in the US ever again.

The way for the “rigging” to be defeated is by voters showing up. Republican tricks RELY on voters maintaining apathetic rates.
Even the most generous reality-based assessments put the impact of republican gaming at 4 to 5 million votes. About 85 million voters stayed home. One is clearly bigger.

Fun fact 2: Harris’ tax policy would have been a huge first step to taking the axe to republican fiscal policy. I guess she assumed that building on the most progressive administration in a generation would be something voters wanted. They chose the other option.

Fun fact: democrats tried to pass an election reform package that would have ended citizens united and much of the other money that ruins politics. Voters didn’t give them the seats to overcome republican obstruction then decided to hand control to republicans outright.

I’d say if you want to fix things you need to focus on the main problem: the laziness, ignorance, and apathy of voters.
