I’d agree but when the other candidate is Trump the excitement should be at max level for you, or I’ll have to think you have a secret agenda.

people have short attention spans. and the media circus isn't helping Biden's cause. I'll hold my nose this time and vote biden, just like i did with hillary, but not everyone will do that. a lot of people are going to skip voting, and you shouldn't blame them, you should blame the democratic party for not putting forward the best candidate for the job.

People are dumb, people are uneducated, people have short attention spans, people are undecided, but people also don't know if they should vote in the face of a realistic takeover of the US by a fascist movement scenario. Maybe it's time we take away democracy from people who are actively disengaging from it. Once Trump is president again, it will be too late. End him and everybody who follows him.

The quiet part is a bit loud in this one my blue conservative "ally".
