    Make sure you don’t vote for Biden though, because of that one issue you suddenly care about.

      that one issue you suddenly care about.

      That will also be significantly worse under Trump.

            What a bad “cynicism is easier than engaging with reality” zero-brain take.

            Many politicians just suck. Of course.

            But some politicians are clearly trying, growing, learning, and improving. And throwing them out with the bathwater, giving them no support, and equating them to the ones that suck is terminally, suicidally stupid.

            But hey, cynicism is easy. People think you’re cool, and you don’t have to put any effort in.

      It is also the lone issue that Repubs somehow aren’t oppositional defiant disorder about. “Let’s get the Muslim ban guy back in there, he’ll save Palestine.”

      Turns out there are plenty of useful idiots who think they are insulated from the consequences of an election by campus security and daddy’s money.

      But then others of them know what they’re up to. They want Donald to help speed the collapse so China can gain more ground. That’s hypocrisy, those guys don’t give a shit about human rights abuses as long as the nation committing them pretends to be socialist.

      I.e. russian trolls playing the “thoughtful liberal” telling a heartfelt story about how they cannot vote for Biden in good conscience because of this issue.
