I honestly put most of the blame on the Democrats, and I voted for Harris, Biden & Obama. But while I voted for each of them I’m not blind to the problems they have created over the years. Most of what dems have run for is basically, they’re not republicans. Obama did the ACA, but it was originally a Heritage Foundation idea (sound familiar?) instead of pushing for single payer healthcare or at least a public option. He bailed out the banks when the great recession hit instead of the people that lost their homes. Biden was much better than Obama on domestic policy, his economic stimulus checks gave him a huge boost in popularity and he fought for some genuinely progressive policies like student loan debt relief, the CHIPS act and the Inflation Reduction Act. Unfortunately he basically shit the bed on foreign policy when he backed Israel in their genocide. Harris lost by a very small amount, about 1.4% so had he cut off weapons and held Israel accountable for their war crimes it might’ve been enough to push her over the edge to win last year. That’s my two cents.
