      Really wish we had a better option but it’s anyone not fascist until this wave of budget fascism dies out

        Over time I see less and less of the need to be like “lol I don’t like who I’m voting for, but I feel like I have to.” I see absolutely no regret in 1) voting against obviously they worst thing ever and 2) voting for someone who seems to a least try to do things that aren’t horrible and are generally pretty good? They only time you’re going to agree with everything a candidate says or does you’d be on the ballot yourself. Even then it’s probably healthy to disagree with yourself a bit.

            Who also supports Israel. It’s not the president, it’s the MIC and every single moneyed interest powering the US.

        A vote for third party is a vote for Trump.

        You may not like it, but that’s what we have to deal with.

              If you can write out the math where I, voting 3rd party, add a vote to Trump’s tally, and I will personally give you one billion dollars.

                Lol. Trump is a fascist and has about a 35% ceiling for fascist voters in the US. Any vote you take away from his ONLY competition (in this case Biden) moves him one vote closer to victory. Keep your (nonexistent) money imbecile.

                    Bro you just won the internet with pedantic technical arguments that pretend to not understand what the person you’re arguing with is telling you.

                The thinking is that 3rd party votes will lessen the amount of votes Biden gets, thus allowing Trump to win.

                You aren’t actually adding a vote to Trump’s tally, you are subtracting one from Biden.

                Most of the Independents I know skew towards the Republican side anyway, so I’m just a little inclined to think a 3rd party vote will actually subtract from Trump’s tally, but I’m just a little old blue lady down in Louisiana, so what do I know?

                  Nobody in my very conservative family is happy w/ Trump OR Biden.

                  If they decided to go 3rd party, are they also voting for Biden? For Trump? They’ve committed voter fraud? Wait what?

                    I can’t even imagine how that is your take-away from my comment. If your very conservative family vote 3rd party, they are voting 3rd party. Not for Biden or Trump.

                    My comment is attempting to point out that 3rd party votes are going to have a consequence.
