It wouldn’t hurt to bring this up the next time someone tells you Trump is an anti-war candidate.

      Hate to break it to you, but Trump is all in on that genocide. Plus there’s, you know, everything else that makes Trump terrible.

        You’re obviously right, Trump is worse.

        But it’s hard to deny the cold reality of your comment: You are openly supporting a politician who you admit is genocidal, and you are getting upvoted for it.

        The “lesser of two evils” logic continues to deteriorate the quality of our candidates and their responsiveness to the wishes of the American people.

        Do you see a way, in the future, to break out of this “lesser of two evils” death spiral? Or in 2032 will you be supporting Zombie Reagan(D) because he is less evil than Zombie Hitler®?

          In our current system we don’t really have a choice. FPTP basically ensures there will only be two viable candidates and they’ll come from the established parties.

          Ah the good old “but you support Hitler” debating line. Glad to see the mental acuity amongst the Republican supporters matching their leader.

            Ah the good old “but you support Trump” debating line. Truly you are a paragon of mental acuity.
