Yeah, remember when how the people who voted for Nader got us Bush, who ignored reports of a terror attack before 9/11 and got us into an unnecessary 10-year war in Iraq causing hundreds of thousands of deaths and trillions of dollars in expenses for the US government, which was then translated into “We don’t have money to stop veterans from freezing to death in their homes, stop complaining”?
Definitely not a big deal, definitely just a nice little politics as usual moment. Who cares about Red Team or Blue Team, Both Sides Bad!
And if you don’t think Trump, who attempted an outright autocoup, is worse, I have a bridge in fucking Brooklyn to sell you.

That was a failure of the left to unite behind Nader. If he had gotten enough votes, he would’ve won.
Words escape me.
Yes, that’s generally how elections work. Generally, also, a candidates wishes to have a realistic path to getting enough votes as well.
