Former U.S. President Donald Trump, if re-elected in 2024, would expand his first-term immigration crackdown to include sweeping roundups of people who would be held in large camps to await deportation, the New York Times reported on Saturday.
No doubt some of that is being pushed by people who want Trump to win. I hate feeling like I don’t have a choice, but that’s kind of where we’re at now: an unhinged, legally cornered, autocratic Trump who is already threatening to turn America into a Christo-fascist dictatorship who will lock up his political enemies & immigrants, and will most likely push for out & out genocide in Palestine, OR an elderly Joe Biden, who has been the only semi-moderating force on Israel thus far (obviously he hasn’t gone far enough and have mostly given faint disapproval), but has otherwise been doing an ok-ish job the past few years (despite what the media says). It’s a shitty choice, but IMO too important to throw my vote away over a single issue.
It’s insane to me that people are still treating this like a choice when it obviously is not. And sure, it sucks that it’s not, let’s try and fix that. But please, for the love of freedom and democracy and common sense and decency, don’t make it easier for this fucking fascist Trump to actually get a second term. Because this asshole will not leave office this time around.
If you mention Biden being elderly without meaning Trump is basically the same age, or call Biden senile without mentioning that Trump is clearly far worse in that regard, you’re carrying water for Trump.
Right now it’s all the rage to threaten not voting for Biden because of his handling of the Israel/Hamas conflict.
Idk guys… I wouldn’t recommend it.

Sure we will, in the same way that Russia has ballots.

You have a choice, it’s just a really, really easy one.
So I keep reading on the interwebs.
