    I think there’s something wrong with a system that every 4 years have you pick wether you’d rather get repeatedly punched in the face or shot

      Where am I being shot? Maybe it’s someplace kinda safe like the ass. I would take a bullet to the ass over being punched in the face.

      This is not trump support, was a joke about how neither is a good experience. But whatever y’all

        Just to name a few:

        Continued support and funding to Israel with only the most tepid condemnation as people became more aware of their genocide against Palestinians.

        busting the railway union which arguably, if their demand had been met, may not have had the disaster in Ohio. A move rivaled only by Regan

        Despite being told that we had to fight for “kids in cages” nothing has actually come to fruition on that front

          Woah woah. Biden is definitely the getting punched in the face candidate less we remember that Trump will happily send innocent people to jail for calling him names.

          He tear gassed a protest to get a photo of him as supreme leader with his upside down borrowed ǝlqı𐐒.

          He will happily roll back any regulations and protections and enrich anyone and any country that makes his erection harder.

          Trump is absolutely the getting shot option and it’s in the leg and you think it may have nicked an artery.

            Kinda. By Lauren McFerran of the NLRB and other unsung pro-labor heroes cleaning up the mess Biden made to get much worse deals than they would have been able to if the president hadn’t strongarmed Congress into taking their rights away.

            The only positive things Biden has done for unions and workers in general is appoint people who are more pro-labor than he is to relevant positions. Usually on the advice of yet other people who are also much more pro-labor than The Senator from MBNA.

            And no, that doesn’t mean that I’d advise anyone to not vote for him next year.

            Being punched in the face is still almost infinitely better than being shot in the genitals and left to die in agony from the resulting blood loss.

            Just once, though, it would be LOVELY to have a helping hand to vote for rather than a fist or a bullet.
