Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) said policy differences toward Israel between her and President Biden won’t stop her from supporting him in the November general election.
“Of course,” Omar said Tuesday, when asked by CNN’s Abby Phillip on “NewsNight” whether she would vote for Biden if the election were held that day, in a clip highlighted by Mediaite. “Democracy is on the line, we are facing down fascism.”
“And I personally know what my life felt like having Trump as the president of this country, and I know what it felt like for my constituents, and for people around this country and around the world,” Omar continued. “We have to do everything that we can to make sure that does not happen to our country again.”
Yeah you got me, I’m a Russian shill bot. Let me know how voting for the lesser of two evil keeps helping your country improve.
You might have been taught in school that democracy is some ideal or maybe living in a market economy has made you think voting should be like picking out a product on amazon and having it delivered to you the next day.
But the reality is that democracy is a grind. You aren’t going to get everything you want by voting in one election. You get a small amount of progress towards the things you want in each successive election. Are you willing to vote in every election available to you for as many decades as it takes to achieve what you want?
If you’re not willing to do this, it shows you’re not really dedicated to any of the causes you espouse.
You say that as though things are slowly getting better, when the opposite is happening. Your two party system is proving to be a failure.
What I also see happening is America drawing closer to civil war each year. You can prolong the inevitable, but it is coming and it will happen… the only question at this point is when?

By not electing the 10000x worse evil.
You are so hyper focused on Trump you are missing the point.
From an outsiders perspective, it’s irrelevant who you pick, you need a change voting is incapable of creating.
tell you what: when russia’s overthrown putin, we can talk about civil war here. until then, fuck off.
