    You’re electing Trump by not allowing any viable candidates to be considered

        entirely up to the voters to decide.

          They did. Now it’s time for the general election, and those 2 are the choices.

                Tell me what percentage of the country was able to cast a vote by march 12th, because it’s not the majority. Most of us will never get a say before the primaries are over.

                  Literally a majority, that’s mathematically how a nominee clinches the nomination.

                If youre talking about the party nominations, democrats didnt really have primaries.

                  Yeah they did. Maybe you weren’t paying attention. Florida canceled theirs and there’s a lawsuit about it, but Biden still won in a landslide nationally. He got 99.1% of the delegates and 86.8% of the popular vote so far. Some states are still ongoing but it’s an obvious Biden landslide.

              Okay, whatever. We’re here now. Those are the two candidates. You’re not going to respond to this with an answer bc you’re not an actual human.

                  What viable presidential candidates? Stop imagining. Take over your state and local govt, your lower federal house seats, your Senate seats, in that order, and then let’s talk. It’s silly to think you can hit a grand slam bases loaded bottom of the 9th when you’ve never trained and successfully got a base hit.

      Yeah, that’s the attitude that got him elected and see how that turned out for everyone.

      It’s not like doing that is going to inject much meaningful change. It’s not a strategy to address the problem you want to fix.

        They never have solutions. Just criticism, whining, dreaming, and shoe gazing. If they’re not just working 9 to 5 in Russian troll farms.

        The attitude that got Biden elected was “we’ll push him further left after the election”.

        I’d say the attitude that got him elected was a doomed candidate in Hillary. And Im saying Biden this year is similarly doomed.

      I didn’t do that. I vote DSA. I primary’d Pelosi. I’m accepting the current situation and trying to make change where there’s no risk of elimination of any possible future change (allowing fascism in the oval office).

      So how does electing Trump, whoever of us do it, make things better? What’s your proposal? Besides not voting for Biden, what are you doing?
