“Every previous president would have ended it by now.”

“Biden literally couldn’t do worse.”

    Actually, I’m voting third party. If I wanted to vote for Trump I would just vote for Trump.

      I’m familiar with these coping mechanisms, and any other year I’d tell you to vote your conscience.

      This year, a vote against Biden in a swing state is a vote for Trump and it tells me everything about your conscience I need to know.

      People think it’s hyperbole because they’ve heard Wolf too many times, but this is about democracy or not.

      I suspect you think you’re sending a message to Biden by voting third party. You’re not. You’re just messaging to the rest of society that you want Trump over Biden. It really is that simple. Don’t insult us by pretending it’s not. You are in a fucking swing state.

        It’s not a coping mechanism. I simply have an idealogical difference to you. Calling it a coping mechanism insults your own intelligence.

          Your ideological difference is that you don’t mind if Trump wins if that means Biden loses.

            Nobody is changing a voter’s views on genocide.

            Wouldn’t it be better for Biden’s re-election if he stopped the genocide?
