That’s a great solution to win an election if it were easy to find a golden candidate that people like and can’t be portrayed as less than ideal by the other side. Right now, I’ll happily settle and vote for less than perfect if that candidate is the only one not courting fascism. And I certainly won’t go throwing my vote to someone else just because the only guy standing between democracy and tyranny isn’t checking all my boxes. No, sir. Democracy is too important to throw away just because “I don’t love one candidate and actively fear the other, so I just won’t bother.” Democracy is my single-issue this election. Get out and vote, because this time, democracy is cracking, and it is at risk of collapse to fascism.
I mean, that’s good and all but the reality may be different.
You can tell people what they should care about and what they should do, but they probably won’t do it unless they want to.
If democracy really is hanging by a thread, then democrats should nominate the best candidate possible instead of just ones who protect the status quo.
Hmmm, how on earth is it possible for you to have replied to 26 different posts in the last 60 minutes, across multiple articles, many with multiple paragraphs. Fastest typer in the world?
It isn’t so much the volume of typing, it’s the typing a thought-out answer to all those various articles and responses that seems curious. I type at a pretty fast rate, myself, but I don’t consider someone else’s comments and think up (and then type) fact based replies in that timeframe. My comment about typing speed was more me implying that a 3-day-old account that is responding that quickly to that many people on so many subjects in such a short amount of time – well, it walks and quacks like a bot.
Buddy I just went through that account page. There ain’t no multiple paragraph length dissertations like you are implying. Most of those “paragraphs” are one or two sentences long. That’s just basic literacy.

Exactly. If this was something Democrats cared about, pick a better candidate. Biden’s approval rating is as bad as Trump’s at the same time in his presidency. The guy squeaked by with a win when it should have been a blowout.

Yep.
S*** man you might be a slow type if you can’t type that much in an hour.
