And they’re surprised? lol

It’s fascinating to observe the reactions to Trump’s win, especially from groups that claim to support progressive ideals but would have rallied around Kamala Harris. Despite being part of the Democratic Party, Kamala holds many centrist and even right-leaning policies similar to Trump’s, particularly in areas like criminal justice. Her support largely stems from identity politics rather than a record of progressive reforms.

Moreover, the Democratic Party’s continued move toward centrist policies has left many voters disillusioned, leading them to split votes toward third-party options like the Green Party. This division reflects a growing dissatisfaction with the party’s reluctance to support true leftist policies. It highlights a deeper rift where voters are increasingly unwilling to compromise their values for the sake of party loyalty, even if it risks splitting the vote and enabling more conservative outcomes.
