    I’m sure a Trump administration will really help the people of Gaza, the LGBTQ+ community, women’s body autonomy, etc. I guess they want 2000 all over again.

      A lot of younger voters don’t really remember 2000, where we had a protest vote going for Nader, which had the effect of throwing the election into the courts, enabling Bush to get them to install him in office.

        You’d think they’d remember what happened in 2016 when so many of us (myself included) went 3rd party as a protest too.

          That was 8 years ago. There are people voting this year that were 10 when Trump entered office. Idk about you, but I wasn’t paying much attention to politics in middle school.
