    I’m going to be very critical of Dems

    That’s totally fine, as long as you understand that right now, in America, if you want to protect our democracy, you have to vote Dem, because Republicans do not respect our democracy, at all.

    I’m going to keep a close eye out for any feasible alternatives.

    That’s also fine if you’re talking about local elections, but not if you’re talking about the Presidency. Because no 3rd party has a snowball’s chance in hell of winning the presidency. Why? Because no 3rd party has any presence, at all, in the House or Senate and the 3rd party candidate with the most votes in 2024 only got HALF OF A SINGLE PERCENT of the total votes cast.

      Dems didn’t protect democracy. I have no faith they ever will.

      And that’s why I specified feasible.
