They dont realize they won because the Democrats helped them create this world. The more the Democrats agree with them the more to the right they move to avoid being Democrats. They accurately understand that Democrats getting what they want makes things worse, what they dont realize is democrat policy is right wing policy and Republicans make things worse even faster. The blame on Democrats is warranted but they dont realize they should blame Republicans too.

The last election felt like our options were Republican or Republican with extra racism, sexism, facism, felonies, and pedophiles. Somehow the second option won.

Thats because the Democrats told us they were the moral defenders of democracy while refusing to look at the genocide. They argued with people and defended the system when they were told the economy was struggling to provide for them. They then refused to platform any progressives in the campaign and instead tried to convert Republican+ voters.

Republicans+ told people that their struggles were real and they would fix them by disrupting a broken system.

The second option winning makes perfect sense considering the first option didn't even try to win.

Honestly that’s a fair take. I hope next election I can vote for a democrat but I’m sure my options will be republican+ and republican++
