    How long does it take you to vote for “not Trump”?

    A few hours? Still leaves plenty of time to work towards a sustainable alternative.

    That’s the reason the left always fails. The right will have power struggles but close ranks when it comes down to ensuring the left (or slightly less right) don’t win.

    The left always ensure the worst possible outcome by playing trolley problem at the ballot box.

      hey, how’d voting “not Trump” work out for you in 2020?

      Liberals seem to have the memories of goldfish, which is how the Democratic party is able to keep moving steadily to the right.

          I left the US already - because it was obvious your ilk couldn’t deal with the GOP. I hate that I was right, but so it is.

          It’s worked out pretty ok for me. For the rest of the US, not good.

            I’m not American.

            As a favour to whatever country has graciously taken you in, you should probably leave the attitude in the US where it belongs.

                I’m able to imagine spending a few hours of my day trying to reduce harm.

                You fled your country like a coward to cosplay as a revolutionary somewhere else.

                  Yawn. I’ve been arrested opposing the GOP, you haven’t. I’ve been tear gassed, you haven’t. Etc, etc.

                  You don’t reduce any harm supporting the Democratic Party. Trust me - because unlike you, I spent years actually volunteering and helping the Democratic party. You haven’t, you just like to pretend you’re doing something online. Just like your apparent Ukraine chickenhawkery - always easy to support a war when it’s some other poor bastard being conscripted, I guess?

                  Keep daydreaming, it’s apparently all you’re good for.

      Tell me you don’t understand how American elections work without actually telling me.
