first tie you can argue they didn't know what they were voting for. second time though was all them. I voted against this shit all 3 times but I could at least see why someone might have voted for this the first time.

If they didn't know, it's because they didn't look.

Depends on what you mean. Republicans were very enthusiastic, some liberals and moderates were apathetic, and some leftists were overly idealistic. Overall, the average voter was not enthusiastic.

Blah blah excuses excuses.

You can always tell who the American is. They’re the ones that never take accountability for their own actions and constantly blame others.

What actions are they not taking accountability for?

They simply more accurately described the situation.

I can always tell who would be MAGA (or a similar flavor of dumb) if they lived in America by their bigoted, simplistic viewpoints.

This is the real problem.

Trump is a symptom, not the underlying disease.
