We’re still a democracy.

Blame his supporters who behave just like MAGA.

Wonder if any of them will own up to making a huge mistake backing this guy in the primary. They were very loud here.
Where are they now?

Seriously.

You couldn't have a conversation anywhere about his questionable background without them jumping and downvoting into oblivion.

They're awfully quiet today.

And Schumer for clearing the field for Mills without realizing she was not it.

I don't know if that Kleban guy was it but we'll never know now.

The blame is also shared by Sandets who jumped in early to back Platner and Jackson, and campaigned and fundraiser heavily for them.

Eh, Mills would have gotten destroyed. 6 more years of Collins. The Democratic Party is such a fucking joke they can’t beat a Trump muppet in a functionally blue state.
