    Look, I will hold my nose and vote for Biden in the general, just like last time. But don’t pretend that he had any business running again.

      I’m not gonna vote for anyone because I’m way too left to agree with a lot of their politics, I’m just gonna vote against Trump. It doesn’t matter who is running against him, I’m not letting that dipshit win again. Or the republican party in general at this point, they’ve gotten too crazy.

      I said before, and I’ll say again, Biden is this generation’s Jimmy Carter. If the GOP were to have put forth any competent candidate in 2020, I think Biden would’ve lost by a landslide. Same goes in 2024. Not that I agree with her policies, but given the current political climate, I think the advantage would go to Nikki Hailey if she were to get the nod. But if the choices are (A) Donald Trump, and (B)…it doesn’t matter what B is. Go with B.

        The race seems to be narrowing on Her with her Koch dollars, Ramaswamy as the wild card candidate, and Trump because the man’s ego is too large to leave the race even if he ends up in jail.

          I think Ramaswamy will be the one to fizzle out next. He’s been trying to play the Trump handbook of just slinging out wild statements just to see how people respond, but it seems to be the only trick he has, and people are becoming bored of it.

            Well what do you imagine then? Different third wheel or is it Trump V Halley with the establishment trying really hard to just force Halley, especially if Trump starts losing his cases.

      Oddly enough, that’s all we ask for. Vote with your heart in the Primary. Be as passionate for change as you can be. But in the General, vote with your brain and for the Democrat. Tell yourself it’s a vote for the lesser evil. Tell yourself that any vote besides the winner of the Democratic Primary, whether that be Biden or somebody else, is a vote for Trump, just like it was in 2016 and 2020. And no matter how much you have to hold your breath while voting, make sure that in November of next year, that vote goes to the Democrat, whoever he is. That’s all we’re asking.
