“We recognize that, in the next four years, our decision may cause us to have an even more difficult time. But we believe that this will give us a chance to recalibrate, and the Democrats will have to consider whether they want our votes or not.”

That’s gotta be one of the strangest reasonings I’ve heard in a while.

    I think someone just needs to remind them of how Trump literally tried to stop the transfer of power last time

    They know that now and are leaving anyway.

    any “recalibration” the Dems might do will mean FUCK ALL if Trump gets his way next time as there might not be another election

    If Democrats don’t adjust before the election, they won’t get these voters back. Call them any name you want, it’ll make you feel better. Make all the dismissals and accusations you want. But none of that will get them back.

      They’ll regret it.

      But here we go again. Only way some people learn is by putting their hand back on the hot burner a second time.

        They’ll regret it.

        Maybe the party should try to get their votes instead. But they’d rather have Trump.

            Anyone who expects me to believe supporting genocide is the right thing is not worth my continued effort.
