Did the math for you. 80% of self identified US leftists vote. White libs alone nearly double the amount of leftists in america. The amount of registered white libs that don't show up to vote is close to the total amount of leftists in the country. If white liberals showed up to the polls as consistently as leftist did, kamala would've won by a landslide
Your math was terribly flawed and I already broke down why. I'm not going to repeat it here.
Blaming Kamala's loss on liberals not showing up to vote while claiming leftists did their part is fucking wild.
Were you fucking sleeping through all the "boycott the vote" astroturfing from the left? It hasn't even stopped!
