- Don’t switch horses mid-race
- Deal with this after we’ve secured democracy
- You may not BE a Russian spammer working to elect the orange degenerate puppet by sowing discord and making people not vote, but that just means you aren’t getting paid for it.
I think running Biden gives Trump a better chance of winning. It’s obvious Biden isnt fit for the job. I’d vote for a wet sandwich over Trump, but I’m not someone the Democrats have to convince. The Dems need a dramatically different candidate to have a fighting chance this November.
Just because our side isn’t as popular as you’d like doesn’t mean we don’t have democracy. Now what we do have is a flawed system with lots of mechanisms for a minority party to grind the gears to a halt, and incredibly low voter turnout especially among the far left.
The only way out is to vote in a supermajority of reps who want to fix the system. So vote blue this year, and start building an electable coalition for next cycle. Don’t just stand there, do something
