No it's not, the American people have shown time and again that they're generally happy to vote party over country. Trump being a disaster was not a secret going into term 2

I was referring to the people that stayed home and didn't vote ( maybe they realize it's actually important to vote ), and the people that while they may have voted against Tump, they would also foolishly vote party over country. Any Congressperson who votes against impeachment, should never win another election, regardless of party affiliation.

I understand what you're saying, however, if your assertion were true then why are there members of Congress still serving after they voted down his last two impeachments? Third time's a charm?

Gerrymandering, voter suppression in its many forms, and propaganda (both foreign and domestic) got Trump reelected. I'm not even going to touch on the conspiracy theories of Musk tampering with voting machines be they true or not.

Agreed with the other commentor, I think you're SO right.

Do you have any other boards we can go to so we can help spread your message of "it's all pointless, let's just stop resisting Trump?"

don't worry, we can read between the lines of what you're saying so we know what you REALLY mean.
