    Are you too young or too stupid to remember how Trump employed law enforcement during the BLM protests?

      Are you too senile or stupid to know that Trump has nothing to do with Biden’s platform?

        I disagree. Unfortunately, “not Trump” is the best platform for him, especially right now. Recently, he and Harris did their “are you with us” fundraising and my thought was “no, but I’m against Trump.”

        I hate genocide and what Israel is doing to Palestine, but Biden is, unfortunately, the best option put on the table. Two shit options in terms of the Middle East, sure, but one is still shittier.

            Won’t trump also continue the genocide? So aren’t the options Genocide A, or Genocide B? But Genocide A is also a convicted felon… So. Yeah, easy choice.

              Good thing our country is a Democracy and there are a multitude of other options. Not just Fascist Dictator A or Fascist Dictator B.

                Is it though? I’d love to know who the other options are in a First Past the Post democracy.

                    Or maybe, start campaigning for you choice about 4 years ago. Get us all on the same page, 4 years ago. Or, crazy idea, go with the guy who won’t quite literally end democracy on day one.

                    One of the two candidates said “I’ll be a dictator for a day, just one day”. My vote is for the guy who doesn’t want to openly be a dictator (and also isn’t a convicted felon)
