All due respect big homie, but this narrative always has been disingenuous, even back to the Ralph Nader years. It's true purpose isn't as a critique of voter apathy or voter myopia, it's to bludgeon any challenge to the status quo of Democratic hegemony. And it's clearly been effective, which is precisely why you can even have an argument debating the electibility of a "far left" candidate when the opposition is Donald fukking Trump. HILLARY CLINTON could be viewed in some aspects as being far left if the barometer is Donald Trump, yet where were all the debates about her electibility akin to the ones we having now?

Clinton won 21 states against Trump, 15 of which she won by double digit margins. You seriously see no differentiation between say a Trump voter in Michigan (Trump won by barely 10,000 votes), a Stein voter in Cali (Hillary got 62% of the vote), a Johnson voter in West Virginia (Trump got 68%) of the vote, or somebody who stayed home in D.C.?
The only thing I have beef with is that every blue hair old republican will go out and vote for the R every time, but too many of the D's need to feel "inspired" to vote. I mean, I get it, you want to vote for a candidate you believe in. But if the opposition is stupid, scary, and bad for everybody, and you KNOW the other side is gonna come out for him regardless, then we gotta put the bickering over what kind of Dem/liberal we all want to be and wish the candidate could be, and make sure we pool against Satan. Someone will inspire us again, but in the meantime we can't just watch the world burn either. So I guess for me, the apathy/myopia IS the thing that bothers me. It's not about Democratic hegemony, it's about the fact that, under extreme circumstances (such as Donald Trump running for pres) with our current two-party system, the only way you can beat the devil is by voting Democrat. By the general election, it's too late to bicker about who the right liberal candidate is. If we fukked up before, we fukked up before. Doesn't mean we have to fukk up again because we don't care anymore

damn....he ethered that bytch

It’s nothing she can really say. Her content speaks for itself.

It always baffled me how journalists glossed over his pattern of racist and illegal behavior. Deep into the election, a lot of people didn’t know about his racist casino and leasing habits. It got muddled with the everyday campaign mudslinging.

The press are complicit.

They aren’t overwhelmed, they just enjoy redirection as much as the president.
