The Left DID vote for Hillary Clinton. Stop this. It's 2020. https://twitter.com/coldlawgic/status/1307106090002329600
Maybe instead of sniping at quote-unquote Bernie Bros or whatever you could spend that time trying to get the candidate we have *right now* elected
And not for nothing, but if you're so concerned about the supposed reality in which leftists sat out voting for Clinton in 2016 and it cost her the election, maybe the solution is to *reach out to leftists* instead of *blaming them for literally everything that happens*
But in that case you'd actually have to engage with these people, ostensibly voters who are more on your side than any Reasonable Republican, and not do your cute twitter dunks
After all, doing "Bernie Bros" and "Jill Stein" is a great way to get a bunch of Hashtag Resistance Dorks to like and retweet you, and that's easier than actually doing any fucking work in this election that is supposedly the most important one of the American Experiment
Anyway, we're cursed to be having this stupid fucking argument until the end of time, but if the president gains a second term - no matter HOW he does it - this will be the reason many liberals and centrist Democrats will cite. We will be having this stupid argument, but twice
But, notably, nothing will change. The left is powerful enough to apparently sink two sequential Democratic presidential runs, but also apparently a bunch of spoiled babies to be ignored in 2024, 2028, 2032, etc.
(This assumes that, no matter what happens, we will still have something resembling a fair election after 2020)
