    You’re right but you’re still an asshole. If you think Biden was bad, you should know that things can always get worse. It’s entirely likely that Trump starts a war with Iran alongside Israel and surrenders Ukraine to Russia. Him using nukes is on the table too. It’s too big a risk. That’s where we are at. Risk minimization.

      Biden is already helping Israel aggress against Iran! They’re the most violent state in the region and the US is enabling their ability to start WW3 by provoking all their neighbors. It’s already a regional war and it’s going to get worse no matter who is elected.

      As for Ukraine, we could have already had a negotiated peace deal. Instead, Biden and the Democrats want to fight to the last Ukrainian and so they sabotaged peace talks and blew up the Nord Stream Pipeline. They have no one to blame but themselves for the current situation in Ukraine, and it’s their fault that Ukraine will be in an even worse position when Trump steals the election.

      They never wanted Ukraine to win anyway. The purpose of the war was to let Russia bleed itself of blood and treasure. If they wanted the war to actually end they’d have given Ukraine the support it actually needs, but they would never and will never do that.

      All of that said? If I really though Democrats were the lesser evil I’d vote for them. They’re doing genocide, marching us to WW3, don’t give a shit about meeting our climate goals, and are happy to let Republicans hurt us to help them win over votes. Fuck the Democrats, death to America, and when Trump steals the election you’ll be on my side in the resistance anyway. Why wait?

        Trump would make this worse in every respect. Trump can’t steal the election if he loses in a landslide. Votes from people like you could make this happen.

          Does Harris seem to be running a campaign that will beat Trump “in a landslide”? Is that really how the election is looking to you?

              Sure sounded like it. I just want to be clear: It’s not going to be a landslide. It’s going to be nail-bitingly close. People shouldn’t lie to themselves.

                It’s a call for votes as increasing distance between Harris and trump counts represent increasing the challenge of stealing the election.

                “A landslide” represents the Highwater mark of the point, wherein it is completely impossible for trump to steal, and is illustrative in that it identifies the goal.

                  Does it look like we’re going to reach that goal? Is Harris running the kind of campaign that can actually obtain a landslide?
