Unfortunately, the redcaps are the ones that have an outsized amount of control here, despite their numbers.
Yes, they don’t actually represent the 340 million here, but, a whole lot of stupid/stubborn (either because they think “politics” is for other people, or they are extremely low-info, or because they are tuned in, but butthurt that Biden/Kamala didn’t give them a pretty, pretty pony [1]) people sat the fuck out and didn’t vote for Kamala + straight ticket Democratic, we are stuck with these rightwing assholes acting like they have a mandate when they won on the slimmest of margins.
So people outside the country are right to ask just what the fuck is going on in our country. It’s sheer madness right now.
[1] And many of them are even STILL blaming others/Democrats for their own choice, FFS. I’m sure their self-righteous bullshit narrative will be some comfort for them in these trying times. They can tell themselves they “didn’t vote for genocide”. 🙄 🤦♂️
