    I totally agree the talking about the economy is just stupid. It has been a conservative talking point for decades now and is ridiculous to bring up for most of the reasons you cited.

    You can’t deny he tried to overthrow our rule of law. You seem to think he is so inept that if he tries again he will fail. This is akin to letting an arsonist play with fire in your house because last time he couldn’t keep the fire going.

    As I was explaining your privilege keeps you from seeing what it means to women to have a serial rapist in the white house. The kind of guy who jokes about sexual assaults and walks in on underage girls dressing just because he can.

    The damage has already been done and now it is insult to injury. It really is hard to describe a world to men where women live in constant fear of sexual violence. This is what having Trump as President means. Make no mistake that women are not the only group that will suffer.

    The psychological damage alone of having a abuser represent our country is a bridge too far. The damage his first presidency did will be felt for decades. Another will snuff out the dreams and desires of so many Americans along with emboldening the worst of our society.

    There is no comparison between a narcissist felonious rapist and our current VP. Like I was saying logically you can’t compare the two despite your attempts to. I really do think your take is pretty ridiculous.

    It is like you have already fallen for their shit rhetoric and now you have to fight to justify the garbage reasoning in your head.

    We are not voting for Trump, we are voting for his apparatus. Your belief he won’t go after women when his apparatus has already set their rights back several decades is ludicrous.

    I get you can’t blame Trump personally because he is self absorbed and incompetent. I generally agree. But just like with Reagan the president is just a figurehead and their mind can be completely gone because it is their apparatus that is really running things.

    This is the crux of the whole issue. If Trump is a figurehead what does he represent? What does Harris represent? Look at what they claim, say, and have done. If Harris is a soggy sandwich then Trump is two pieces of asphalt with a turd in between them.

    We can’t manage the damage and your resignation just shows you are unwilling to fight for what is right. When they are done othering everyone else who will defend you?

    Perhaps you are counting on your privilege to save you. Sounds like you may manage but millions of others whether it be the dreamers, LGBQ, transgender, POC, immigrants, Muslims, or women won’t be able to.

    All I really hear from you is, “I will survive another Trump presidency”. Well good for you, but you are missing the point.
