Trump is an asshole, I have never and will never vote for him. It is mind-blowing how deep they have you people in this limited mindset. It is literally impossible for you to imagine the existence of someone who can acknowledge how awful and unfit biden is and yet not like Trump. They have truly turned your mind to putty to mold what they want with it. At least try to take back your brain from them, it’s worth the effort.

Cool cool cool… So then I challenge you with this. Try to imagine the existence of people who understand what is bad about Biden, but also understand that any choice other than a vote for Biden is effectively a vote for Trump, and all the additional bad things that come with Trump. You don’t have to agree with that position, but please don’t pretend it doesn’t exist.
It’s going to blow your mind, but this is exactly the same mantra that gets belched out every single election. I know it all seems so unique and magical when you first get here, but to those of us who have been here awhile, it’s the exact same thing every 4 years.

Hey buddy, back off on the condescending old timer bullshit, I still get a hard time from people for my nader vote, which was still not my first (or second) rodeo.
For those of us who have been here awhile and been paying attention, it seems pretty clear how Trump and his followers represent something different than what has come before. We also remember how Reagan and W upset the applecart without even being as bad as Trump and his ilk.
Who do you think trump’s term was so awful for? Is it just that he got abortion passed off to the States? Did he start a bunch of wars like his predecessors? Did he blow the hell out of poor middle-easterners? Nope, the blue team does that. The red team usually does as well, did trump? Nope. The problem people have with Trump isn’t the things he did or does. It’s what people are so sure he is going to do. I don’t like him, he’s a prick, i won’t vote for him, but this idea that everything the blue team does gets excused and everything the red team does is pure evil is absurd. It doesn’t lead to any constructive dialog. It is absolutely no different from the opposing view that red is baked in jesus’ oven, and blue is straight from hell. The more people who do this ridiculous extremism on both sides, the worse we all are.

That’s not a position I’ve taken, and you’ve been exceptionally rude throughout this discussion. (not only with me) As to the rest - if you can’t see what makes Trump worse, there’s nothing anyone can say that will change your mind anyhow.
You’d be amazed you incredibly difficult it is to not hurt the feelings of people completely invested in a candidate. All I’ve said is that biden is a rubbish choice for president. Part way through our conversation, biden literally agreed with me! You’re still simping him!
He fucked up the COVID response so bad that the cognitive dissonance in the country led directly to a undermining of just about every institution that would be responsible for handling it. His embracing of obvious lies in public because they played to his base while acknowledging the truth of those thing in private, creating a dichotomy of response that actually played anyone without their head up their ass directly against those that did, within groups inside his own administration!
His admin helped facilitate a vaccine he then directly undermined! Then he tries to take credit for that work constantly.
Like honestly I was almost with you until you said that last bit which is hand down one of the dumbest things in context I’ve ever seen.
Yeah, his non-existent leadership during that time lead to over a million dead Americans and the worst economic downturn since the great depression. Just imagine if he got out in front of the pandemic by sending out MAGA facemasks to every household in the country… Trusting scientific experts who said facemasks help prevent transmission instead of going on TV and saying he "doesn’t think he’s going to do it…". From this moment on, our pandemic response was fucked.
You think biden’s almighty leadership skills would have saved any more? So many people died because morons wouldn’t even wear masks, let alone distance.
Well, let’s see. He packed the supreme court so that they would overturn Roe v. Wade once Biden took power without a damn thing Biden could have done to stop them, he managed to politicize a pandemic, he made life hell for anyone who wanted to transition, he used taxpayer dollars to fund his business, he took state secrets out of the white house, he repealed Medicare for All, and you know, I would finish this list but then I remembered I can block you.
It doesn’t require an all-powerful entity to control people who are ready and willing to act completely in love with whoever you paint a blue dot on. The mindless fools on both sides are not exactly the most clever people alive.
Yeah, Trump’s defenders do have a history of doing that.

They?
Who’s this all-powerful “they” you are referring to?
