You missed my point. It was always clear for +90% of leftists that trump was worst.

To me, this feels like a retcon out of hindsight.

The entire year up to election day all I saw was posts downplaying Project 2025, Trump's authoritarianism, the threat to Democracy. Complaining that the media over-sensationalizes anything to do with trump. Accusing everyone worried about Trump that they're just hysterical. Just crazy people thinking that every election ever, Democracy is at stake. And if you vote against Trump actually you're just blue MAGA anyway with the blood of genocide on your hands.

Maybe it was clear to leftists that Trump was the worst, but leftists sure didn't make it clear to anyone else that they gave a shit.
