    There’s a good reason Trump has won an election twice, and it’s because the people he’s running against are incapable of the type of introspection you just described. Their supporters, even less so.

        lecturing and blaming leftists

        It’s not leftists that they’re trying to lecture.

              Maybe start by reading it. It’s not a “wall of text”. It’s a few short paragraphs. You just want any excuses to dismiss a different point of view. I think you’re a sea-lion troll, possibly one who’s paid in rubles ! Regardless, you’re absolutely a jerk !

              Sealioning (also sea-lioning and sea lioning) is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity (“I’m just trying to have a debate”), and feigning ignorance of the subject matter.[5][6][7][8] It may take the form of “incessant, bad-faith invitations to engage in debate”,[9] and has been likened to a denial-of-service attack targeted at human beings

      Nah. I think they cheated. Made it harder for people to postal vote. Intimidated people at polling places. Gerrymandered. Musk bought votes. Probably Musk cheated in other ways, since according to Drumpf he’s “really good at computers”…

        Oh, I have no doubt there were some dirty tricks. But from what I saw, he also had a lot of legitimate support.
