Ok Hilbots, Time For Some Hindsight
Ok, I think it is time to elevate my response to a comment on a previous post on Facebook. A person quoted the ignorant meme that a vote for Stein was a vote for Trump. My response was:
A vote for Hillary in the primary was a vote for Trump. We told you that, but you refused to listen. When are you people going to own the mess you made, and stop trying to blame us who warned you that this is exactly what was going to happen? If you thought that anybody but a blue dog democrat would vote for the most hated woman in politics, then I just don’t think you realize that there are non-Democcrats who vote. How can you be so blind?
If you have to rig a primary to win, don’t you think that is a sign that you have a problem? If you have to sell yourself as the antidote to fear of the other guy, rather than sell your platform proposals, then shouldn’t you realize you have a problem? When you have to tell working people that the economy is just doing great while they are drowning in debt, low wage jobs, and the fear of homelessness, don’t you think you might have a problem?
When the “low-information” voter knows full well that your description of life in these united states at this time is just a bunch of malarkey, do you think you may have a problem?
When voters see you disrespect them by hoping they are ignorant enough to trust you instead of their own lying eyes, do you expect them to respect you back? How are they supposed to respond when you keep saying “I get it” when you clearly don’t get it?
Even in hind-sight you don’t get it. What are we supposed to do other than keep you as far out of the politics of this country as we possibly can? Are we supposed to give you bunch of losers another chance to wreck the Democratic Party? Do you think blaming us for the mess you caused is the way to win friends and influence people? No wonder you couldn’t win against Donald Trump.
