    Yeah this “you’re throwing a tantrum because you didn’t get everything you wanted” is rich coming from the people who got Joe Biden elected in the 2020 primaries. It’s pure projection on their part. They would throw a tantrum if they didn’t get everything they wanted. The moment progressives start dominating primaries these people will stop showing up to vote in the general election.

    It’s pure ego. They’ve built their personality around being “the good guys” compared to Republicans so when someone comes along and says “we need to do more” it’s a crisis for them. They can’t let anyone accomplish more than they did because it would force them to admit they became complacent.

    Democrat voting Boomers are still Boomers at the end of the day. Selfish pieces of shit.

      They have. In 2008, Clinton supporters literally formed a PAC to try to get McCain elected because they were so upset that a Black man got the nomination.

      How do you know that? I voted Bernie and I think you’re throwing a tantrum.

      I voted Bernie. Not throwing a tantrum. I’m thrilled that Biden is the most progressive president since LBJ if not FDR.
