    I personally can not stand either candidate, to the point I have trouble viewing either one as even human due to their long histories of harm.

    Then you’re not to be taken seriously.

    That people keep trying to stick to the status quo, even as things are going now is just ridiculous.

    No idea who is sticking to the status quo. But I’m not risking another Trump term for a 0% chance of a third party, and those candidates are terrible.

    That a third party can’t win is something the two entrenching parties both try to delude us into supporting. Ross Perrot won almost 20% of the vote against Bush and Clinton who weren’t as bad candidates as Trump and Biden.

    And got no electoral votes! Zero! It’s not the two parties telling you they can’t win, it’s reality.

    The middle of the election isn’t the time. Grass roots organize, change your reps, state reps, etc…you need to build the change not just snap your fingers to get change.

      Those entrenched have everyone saying it is never the right time to get off their train, so when is the time?

        Did you even read my previous comment, or just respond? I literally said you need to organize at the grassroots, get state reps and senators, and Congress members. You need to build the change, not just snap your fingers. A third-party president would accomplish nothing.
