    This may not sway your vote, but a vote for a candidate that isn’t going to win might as well be a vote for Trump. The 2020 election was decide by 43,000 votes across three states. Maybe another Trump term is okay with you, but it’s something to consider.

      Complaining about people’s vote is a great way to suppress voters from even voting. Maybe they are someone who wouldn’t vote for Biden or Trump. So their choice is voting or not, I say go ahead and vote. Don’t wait for polls to tell you who the winner is so that you can cast your vote correctly.

      I’d rather trump win than biden. So good. I’m gonna vote green unless the democrat candidate explicitly endorses and pushes ubi. I don’t care if trump wins because biden is worse than trump.

        I’m all for UBI and it is only a logical conclusion to our problems.

        But trump is just a straight up charlatan. I wouldn’t want him in my own home. No where near my business for damn sure. I just don’t like the guy on a human level. He is greed encapsulated.

        Biden is a political vestige of old, I know, but tagging along with Biden is a new wave of smarter more in touch people (for now) and I think we need to support them up and comers, while slowly pushing in the direction that does the most good for most people.

        None of our current political frameworks are the answer. We’re still trying to figure it out. And it’s slow going. Extremely slow going.

        I think money has soured everything and until it leaves politics, and life in general, nothing is really gonna work in our favor.

        It’s literally broken by design.

          biden is worse because he’s progressive and takes up the democrat nomination. I’d rather Trump win than support biden at all. Biden is a homophobe, transphobe, racist, rapist warmonger. At least trump pretends to give a shit, biden actively gloats about being awful.

          So any fear mongering of “republicans might win!!” I don’t care. You care more than I do. you want my vote? support a candidate that openly pushes for ubi, that’s how you get my vote. otherwise stop complaining that I don’t vote for your shitty candidate.
