Sorry to beat the same drum in a short amount of time, but this is where thinking Biden wasn't doing enough has led. Perfect being the enemy of the good and all. Explicit calls for ethnic cleansing were at least not on the table with the last administration.

Counterpoint: What's the relevance of either of those questions for an election that happened three months ago? I don't like relitigating unspooled events.

You're welcome to your opinion that Biden or Harris would have been worse, but the facts don't bear that out at all. I'm not mad at people; I'm somewhat surprised Pikachu that anyone thought this would not be the net result and vote accordingly.

I'm certainly mad at people.
