Now if Trump wins we'll see more crying and wailing in the streets as shrieks of "Not my president" echo through the city alleys, and shouts of Russia collusion becomes a thing again. Better get the safe spaces set up ahead of time just in case and companies need to be prepared for the millions taking mental health days off. Both sides have their crazies I guess.

With the primary here, I should make another poll of Trump's policies, see if the cultists have narrowed in on a favorite. Trump doesn't have policies or a platform beyond whatever pops into his decrepit brain at the moment he is speaking. He is completely devoid of principles, a governing philosophy or really even basic logical thought. It's like electing Dory the Fish to be President.
January 12, 20242 yr Both are bad choices is like saying driving without a seat belt and putting a loaded gun in your mouth and pulling the trigger are bad choices. Sure, both are bad. But not equally. Biden has better legislative accomplishments by far. His main drag has been dealing with inflation issues that are 70% not his fault (the spending bill he passed a month in contributed to be sure, but inflation was coming either way due to supply chain and supply/demand mismatches that simply needed to work themselves out). But he also passed CHIPS and the infrastructure bill, and manufacturing is starting to swell. Biden's chances rest heavily on how the economy does the next 9 mos. I'm hopeful and bullish there.

One side of crazies wears pink vargina hats, the others storm the capitol at the orders of the losing candidate, assault and maim police officers, proceed to commit suicide by cop, and force the Vice President into hiding. Two sides of the same coin, amirite?

Yeah...except that one side attacked their own Capitol to stop the democratic process. So, your annoyance at the left is a bit different from the democracy-ending urges within the right. Just to clarify, I'm not saying you have to be part of the left. Or even like the left. But you can't "both sides" this....because Biden winning means 4 years of a president you don't like, while Trump winning leaves you questioning whether you'll be able to vote again.

I view it this way -- Biden's policies and governing philosophy are terrible, and the country will be worse off if he is re-elected. But the harm will be within normal parameters, driven mainly by continuing down a failed path of expanding government while shifting the tax burden even further on to the small group that already pays for everything. Trump is a black swan event that could lead to catastrophe. Hell, the only saving grace last time was that Trump and the people around him were too stupid to destroy the republic. If he gets smarter people around him, combined with being even more unhinged (no need to worry about re-election, further cognitive decline), there's no telling the damage he could do. Biden is the obvious, if regrettable, choice.

Biden is the obvious, if regrettable, choice. Pretty much. This is why generic Republican wins most elections. People project solutions for the excesses Democrats display on their alternatives. But few if any Republicans can even meet the bar of generic Republican. They all have to pander in rhetoric and action to the stupidest among us.

If Biden loses then it means people who previously voted for him thought he did a worse job than Trump. It's not like there isn't a comparison of the 2 and how they perform as president. To say that it's demonstrably false that Biden is "as worse or worse" is just an opinion and many people have a different opinion than you. My opinion is that they are both bad choices. Biden will leave in 4 years if he wins. Trump won't. Your argument is invalid.
January 12, 20242 yr Sorry, I can't see how anyone feels there is anyone worse than the Donald. I really can't. It's the correct vote. I don't care if a dog is running, a vote for a dog is better than voting for that POS.

To say that it's demonstrably false that Biden is "as worse or worse" is just an opinion and many people have a different opinion than you. My opinion is that they are both bad choices. The economy is making a soft landing after everyone predicted a recession. The fact that Biden was able to make that happen shows he is doing a great job. We have record unemployment, and the stock market is at near record levels after all the doom and gloom. Gas prices are now lower than they were two years ago and even now below $3. I don’t understand how anyone can say Biden is doing a bad job. now, am I a fan him as our president? No, but that is mainly due to his age. His two big policy wins (infrastructure act and IRA) are massive wins for our country and for our economy. The market and our soft landing proves that fact.
