This happened in the UK too with Brexit. When things turned out badly, in the exact way as was predicted, it was "this isn't what I voted for". But the problem was never with the vote itself, it was always the fault of politicians not implementing things correctly, it was the EU's fault for not giving them what they wanted although they voted to be outside of it, experts didn't warn them enough although they ridiculed said experts because the experts didn't went along with the Brexit beliefs.
It's like trying to be Scully and going against Mulder's "I want to believe".
I mean if you read it article it's full of "this is the Democrats fault" and "we made a mistake, but we'll never admit it". So many are still flailing, looking for anyone else to blame and absolve them of a dumbass move.
The truth is out there. But so are lies.
So, so many lies.
The truth is handed in a silver platter but that reality is immediately rejected and replaced with their own wishes and dreams.
