    So sad that dumbasses who think the President controls grocery store prices and gas prices have done this to us all.

    I voted for Harris and my state went red for Trump as usual. Just sad and disgusted at it all today.

      How do you expect people to think any differently when there is nobody combatting that narrative at the national level? That is something the Democrats could have been hammering on.

        Uh, just basic knowledge of how the President’s job works? Stuff we learn in grade school. Everyone should know this, but people are idiots.

          Right, which is why you educate them and make the case for them to vote for you, or else the other side will spread their disinformation without any competing narrative. That’s kind of the entire point of a presidential campaign. Just calling people idiots isn’t going to make them not be idiots.

          In the context of this chain, it should be noted most immigrants don’t go through US grade schools.

            Immigrants should do their civic duty as members of the society they wish to join, by learning basic civics.

            But overall, this election is the fault of religious dumbasses who are brainwashed by dumbass preachers illegally promoting their politics based on religious fantasies about demons and armageddon.
