    Sorry you don’t want to win, if you wish to keep Republicans elected, you can just swap party affiliation. You clearly don’t care about what Democrats want, only their corporate donors from the military-industrial complex.

      You’re right. I don’t care about what the Democrats want.

      I instead care about advancing Western Europe’s interests in the US.

        Why Western Europe’s interests as opposed to the world’s interests? Western Europe is doing relatively fine, it seems to me that I have a greater responsibility to look out for the global poor, especially those who are suffering due to US intervention.

          It’s because I have a high opinion of France, Spain, and Portugal. Especially Portugal.

            But why should US politics be oriented towards helping people who are already wealthy and secure instead of people who are poor and vulnerable, especially when their situation is our fault?

              It’s because I want a Western European style constitution instead. And I don’t speak Portuguese.

                Do you think that supporting the interests of Western Europe is going to result in the US adopting a Western European style constitution? How do you envision this playing out, exactly?

                  An EU-backed Operation Historic Turn should the divide between US and Western European interests become severe enough. This would result in a new constitution favorable to Europe.

                    That sounds nice, but I’d rather place my hopes on a more realistic solution, such as mole people coming up and saving us.

      The user above you seems to be advocating that we vote for the only opposition the Republicans have ever had with any chance of actually winning elections, so your statement doesn’t really make sense. You’re saying voting for the only other option is keeping them elected? Are you Bizarro Superman?

        Harris could have stood in the middle of 5th avenue, and shot someone, and still not lost some people’s vote.

        We had answers to get Harris elected. She and her working for free sycophants said that she didn’t need them to win. She lost. Her sycophants then went on to say the people who they didn’t need or needed to listen to cost them the election.

        Again, sorry you don’t want to have the DNC ever win again. You can just turn in your I Voted sticker for a MAGA hat, there’s no difference in the end. Sorry we tried to help her win, not sorry we were right all along and were ignored.
