      That’s not what happened.

      Hong was a leading voice in the “uninstructed” vote in the primary, not the general. It was purely sending a message.

        Apparently few people ever bother to read the article before firing off their uniformed opinion. This was during the primary. If Biden or the party had listened to this protest vote, we might not be in the disaster we’re in right now. What it did do was reveal how soft his support was among certain groups of voters, particularly progressives.

      I still can’t get mad over someone voting with their morals. The only difference between a Harris and Trump vote was white Americans being treated how anyone who wasn’t a WASP inside and outside the country has been treated by America for 60+ years. Especially since she’s a memebr of the smallest voting block in the country. Her protezt vote was basically meaningless.

      You can try and blame those who didn’t vote strategically but the blame lies on the more than 50% of the largest voting demographic(white ppl) voting for a racist/rapist.

      Ask yourself why white America would rather vote for a bigot instead of blaming her

        Uhhh we do blame them. We also blame her because she knew and understood that he was rapist/racist and decided to support him anyway.

        The only difference between a Harris and Trump vote was white Americans being treated how anyone who wasn’t a WASP inside and outside the country has been treated by America for 60+ years.

        Oh, you’re delusional. My bad.
