    Which gets us right back to where we were. By voting third party you are fine with either Biden or Trump winning. You may not like that but it's true. But if you think that both are equally bad, then you should vote third party. Again, just know what you are voting for.

      One is lesser bad. I've stated that. And I'm tired of that. I will not vote for lesser bad. I will vote for who best represents me. Period.

        I understand. You dislike both but are fine with either.

          This part. This is the part that makes me want to vomit and hate politics and sit on my couch and say eff it all because I'm not a big enough "entity" (so to speak) to be affected by any policy.

          People sticking words into other people's mouths, or warping what they are actually saying. It's disgusting. Here's some "both sides" stuff I continually face, along with others. Read the quoted post. Rs and Ds both do it, and both claim it's ok when MY side does it. Bullsh*. Look in the effin' mirror. We are all to blame because we are too self-absorbed with being on the "correct" side of things. Trouble is, we are only viewing it from our end. Not the ones who disagree with us. Truth.

          I'll make it offical. I'm rage-quitting this bullsh* "thread of discussion."

            Im sorry that you dont like it, but its the logical implication of your position. As I said from the outset...know the consequences of your actions.

              I’m still confused as to how Biden is as bad as trump. I mean, even in the rube’s universe I don’t see it.

                This is what I'm talking about. I am not saying Biden is as bad as Trump. He's not. Period. But he is far from who I want as Prez. Therefore, I will vote for someone closer to my standards.

                  You’re not answering the question. How is Biden bad. He’s as conservative as your going to get among the Dems.

                    Then with all due respect () you can take your Trump, "should be impeached" opinion and shove it. Not voting for the only person that can hopefully beat him = no values knowing what an affront to humanity the Trump administration has been.

                      Biden and Bernie are two opposite ends of the spectrum. You're essentially saying you'll never vote for a Dem.

                        This is exactly how we ended up with Trump

                          As you should have. Biden is about as “centrist” as you’ll get, so he should appeal to someone that dislikes Trump but thinks most of the Democrats are “too extreme”

                            Yeah, I don’t know how anyone could strongly dislike Biden. He’s a dinosaur and not super inspiring, but at this point he would be a breath of fresh air after four years of Trump.

                                Biden is Trump Lite. I expect that to bite him in the arse in the opening debates, but if it doesn't, I'm prepared to pull the lever for him. Alas, there isn't a candidate out there who can deliver 100% of what I consider ideal, especially with a divided Congress.

                                1. Higher taxes on the wealthy
                                2. National healthcare
                                3. A national infrastructure revitalization program
                                4. Restoring trust with our foreign allies and partners
                                5. Immigration reform that puts the onus on employers to verify status and (if required) visas, with heavy fines for violations which escalate for repeat offenses
                                6. Tighter borders without a stupid wall, using modern surveillance techniques
                                7. Reining in CBP and ensuring we employ agents who don't act like Gestapo
                                8. A plan for addressing global climate change and US re-entry into the Paris Accords
                                9. Shutdown the anti-vaxxer bullsh*t and mandate vaccines for all children who are deemed medically fit to receive them
                                10. Middle ground on taxpayer-funded college
                                11. Comprehensive sex ed and unfettered access to abortion on demand
