    I would prefer neither was running. If Biden had run instead of Obama, he would have got my vote. I voted for Obama. Had he run on his values from the 90’s, I may have picked him over Trump. In his current state, I can’t vote for him. I wish he wouldn’t have run again, and people would have remembered him in a better light.

      It’s him or Trump. Not voting for one is directly helping the other. So what you’re saying is that, between the two, you prefer Trump.

        Oh 100% I’m voting from Trump. No way I’d vote for Biden in his current condition. If something happens to Biden, Harris would in charge and I dislike her even more

          I’m just dumbfounded that anyone thinks Trump is a better choice than basically anyone. I mean it’s not that he’s unlikable, it’s that he’s a criminal con man who cares for no one but himself and is raping the country. His policies are horrid and he appoints people who actively want to dismantle government. Biden could be in a coma and do a better job. Harris seems perfectly capable even if you don’t like her.

            I am a small government republican. So I look forward to most of the garbage being dismantled. The government has grown much larger and wasteful than it needs to be.

              That’s such bullshit. The current Republican party isn’t anything close to “small government,” they only want to reduce things like the EPA and other things that cost company profits in order to protect people. They have zero problem dictating what people can do in their bedrooms or mandating religion in schools, etc.

              You claim to vote republican for government to be dismantled, but there are 2 problems with this line of thought:

              • completely dismantled government = anarchy. So are you an anarchist? If not, where do you draw the line at “dismantled enough”?

              • why are you voting for the party enacting record numbers of bans across the country? Bans give government excuse to expand scope in enforcing them, directly contradicting the reason you’re voting for them.

            Neither. That’s a very misogynistic and racist thing to say. That may be your reason for disliking her but that never was a concern of mine
            How about I don’t like her politics and her track record.

              So what you’re saying is you’d rather have someone in office who has already tried to rig an election, incite an insurrection, was buddies with Epstein enough to fly numerous times on his private plane and has been accused of rape? That is preferable to you over anything Kamala has done politically?

      You forget the choice is binary, right? There’s no 3rd option that hasn’t been an abject failure before.

      Racist? The guy who worked directly with a black guy? Two puffs and pass, from now on, okay?
