Good Lord. The left denigrated her over the genocide. They stayed home and encouraged others to stay home.
I'm done with you. You're not willing or able to see that the left shares blame for the disaster we now have.

You're the one who said 30% of the non-voters did so because of Harris' stand Opposition to which just happens to match up with the far left.

Use you head, Andy. When does an event change from being a current event to being history?

I did not reference events that did not happen. Remember the Tea Party led by Newt Gingrich?

No I did not. And as a trained historian I am telling you that what happened yesterday is not " history."
Your definition would obliterate the study of Political Science and also Journalism.

That's current events. Historical is 20+years ago. Such as: one reason daddy bush did not get re-elected is because the far right would not vote for him

No, nice try. I never claimed that history was on my side. You brought up the charge of an ahistorical argument.
But it would be easy: look at the GOP in 2024. Many do not like trump. But they shut up and voted for him while we were virtually throwing 30% of our potential votes into the trash

Sure. Just keep doing what you do. It was certainly effective in 2024. And it's really moving the needle over the past 25 years.

Talk about being argumentative and not listening! I never said stay quiet. I said BE quiet during the election. Screaming during a thunderstorm may make you feel better, but it doesn't stop the storm. It's all about timing.

To say that the far left non voter had no impact is stupidly naive.

When I am messaging someone who is wrong you can be sure I'll be argumentative. Strategizing gets lost with emotional reactions.

Zero leverage? It's called re-election. They are so fearful of the midterms that there is plenty of leverage if they are in the majority. But getting them into office MUST take priority.

THAT is the thinking of someone who is not thinking.
You have to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold em. Campaign season is NOT the time to aggressively attack the best candidate on any issue. PRIORITIES. You have to get someone in office

One reason many white libs did not fucking vote is because the far left kept denigrating the closest candidate. The far left needs to STFU after Labor Day. Close ranks and get the best we have elected. Admit that the battle is lost for a while; don't poison the well.

Now you've still got a genocide going on, plus all the other shit trump is bringing on. You can have goals but still vote for the less evil of two candidates.
