The leader of Americans everyone.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 2 days ago (3 children)

He may be in charge, but he's not a leader.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 days ago

Not my leader, I actively don't do anything he says.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oh he’s not in charge. He just makes the fries for the people who are.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Always undercooked. Many such cases! SAD!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

He's definite discharging something

Half of us are very very sorry.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Less than half of you voted to prevent him from winning.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 days ago

Fine, I rescind my apology from applying to you, specifically.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

And less than a quarter of us actually voted for him.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 days ago (2 children)

But the ones who didn't vote for the alternative also voted for him, if indirectly.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If you're planning to assign blame to every single person who had even an indirect hand in putting him back into office, you're going to have a very long list of people to talk to.

Biden got 10 Million more votes than Harris. That is what decided the election. Those ten million people choose to let fascism win.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

I mean, there were also 15 million Americans who died between 2020 and 2024. Add that to the biggest voter suppression campaign in US history, and you get a substantial enough reason for the electorate to have changed.

For a single individual to have made that choice is one thing. But to paint ten million people with that broad brush is just rage-baiting.

Shhhhhh! They’ll hear you and exact a horrible revenge by “downvoting” this outrageously true statement!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Caring about upvotes and downvotes is such a redditor opinion.
