my God, this forum has devolved into the worst of the worst. It's always emotional and reactionary in here, but it seems that the rational and seasoned members have pulled back to make way for the kids.
I'm going to step back for the day too. It's just too much uninformed nonsense.
I am excited for a lot of you guys, because it seems like this is your first time tracking a PNW winter storm. I remember my first time.
As would I.
Sure, Stein was a factor. The DNC reaction is to throw a tantrum about how unfair it was that she was. Ditto for the Electoral College.
Well, news flash: the world is not always fair. The DNC’s job is to win elections. Not some hypothetical perfect elections they might wish existed, but the messy, real-world, flawed elections that actually do exist. The ones where third parties act as spoilers. The ones with an Electoral College that makes it possible for a candidate to lose the popular vote yet still win the White House. The ones where depressingly many voters are low-information voters.
They are very good at lecturing their critics from a condescending position of faux superiority. If only they were as smart and as skilled as they seem to think they are. Their track record isn’t actually stellar. The whole Hillary ’16 fiasco is a prime exemplar of this.
