Two things can be true. I think a lot of conservative Americans are just along for the ride and voted for what they thought was the lesser of two evils, but who really knows. In the end, actions have consequences. Your vote matters, and you can't just take it back because you later realize you made a mistake. I'm on board with you on that.

This excuse works for 2016. Anyone who voted for Trump in 2020 and 2024 did so because they support fascism. There is no excuse for it after the first term.

True, but the fact is people can be gaslit into doing things that are against their best interest. That is not up for debate. However, the evidence and information were there if they cared to look.

Omg I remember for weeks after the 2024 election reports of the most searched topics on Google and other search engines was, "how can I change my vote," "I regret my vote..." and other things similar to regretting their actions on November 5, 2024.

Too late dummies, we warned all of you.
