Would be pretty cool if like, I dunno, the primaries actually worked and could vote in another candidate instead of running with literally one of the least popular first term presidents in American history.
He's also completely losing the left by refusing to call for a ceasefire in Gaza. He's made it abundantly clear he doesn't give a shit if Israel is committing crimes against humanity or not. Not much of a compelling "lesser evil" to the people who actually give a shit. Not that I'm saying Trump wouldn't, you know, turn America directly into a totalitarian dictatorship and immediately prompt a civil war or anything. Just that Biden himself is a terrible person and inspires very little hope in any kind of moderate establishment that could reasonably fight back against fascism. There's no doubt leftists will vote against Trump, but there's no enthusiasm from the left with regards to Biden's campaign.
Trump would surely solve the Palestinian crisis with the one state solution. It'll be a great solution folks. The best solution of all solutions. Some may even call it the final solution. Biblical.
Candidate: "I will not bash your kneecaps in! The other guy? He's definitely gonna."
Le pick me voter: "Wow, that's not any reason to vote for you, fuck you, you have to win me over."
*The other guy wins. Le pick me voter's kneecaps get smashed in."
Candidate: "I told you he was gonna!"
Le pick me voter: "Oh like you're any better! I'll remember how you didn't win me over every time I limp from these smashed kneecaps!"
Yes you're right we shouldn't have standards for our heads of state and just anyone is fine for the job, even if that person provides financial and military support to a state that is not subtly committing crimes against humanity.
You'll note the end where I said that leftists will still vote against Trump. Dunno who you're preaching to about voting.
The strawman they constructed for the purpose.
🥴
The voters do get a little quirky at night
Give me back the braincells I lost reading this downright embarrassingly strawmanned interpretation of their comment.
I lost all my brain cells reading comments from people who pretend fptp isn't a thing. Idealistic trash.
Not that you had many to begin with 😏
