There is no shittier candidate than Trump. The there is MTG, Gaetz, Boebert, and so many others. The shittiest candidates I have ever seen.
But it's not a binary thing...
Did you look at the post you're commenting on?
More engagement is always better
So we should never settle for "better than a Republican".
That works a hell of a lot better at the lower levels of representation. State and local races are where those "not blue (or red)" candidates have the best (and in most cases, only) chance of getting elected.
But that only happens if you show up. If all you do is bitch and moan about presidents and only vote once every four years... nothing will ever change. We'll always just have Biden or Trump. Because you've shown that that's all that matters to you.
Holy shit. I though Miss Cleo died!
What's the lottery numbers for next week den?
I don't do lottery numbers.
I can however predict that you'll continue to cherry pick statements to support your failing ideology of "fuck all y'all" to all our eventual downfall cause you can't stomach things not being absolutely perfect with little to no effort on your part.
That’s a solid ranking. Trump IS worse than Gaetz and MTG.
And he’s damn near as old as Biden. You think he’s not sundowning a little too when he starts rambling about sharks and shit?
