Here's what I don't get about this. If you vote for Trump this time, you know what you're getting. He was already president, so you know what you're in for. Is there really anybody on the fence here? I mean, I understand hating both candidates and declining to vote for either one, but if you vote for Trump, then you agree with Trump.

There are an alarming number of people who got a good look at the raging dumpster fire and decided that they needed some more of that.

I mean a lot of people are voting for Biden just because he's not Trump, even if they dislike many of the things he's done. So perhaps you can imagine that a lot of people are voting for Trump just because he's not Biden.

And many of them are voting for D/R because he's not R/D. Tribalism.

Unfortunately, it sounds like the second round would be much worse. They already had a trial run. Now they know how to actually accomplish a lot of the awful things he wanted to do.
