    So our choices this fall are a “well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” and one who isn’t well-meaning. Doesn’t change my vote!

      Those are not your only choices. Nevermind the fact that the primaries aren’t even done yet, which is a prime time to vote for anyone but those two.

        Yes and no, primaries are a joke; i.e. what happened to Sanders. The democratic party harpooned his campaign anytime they could in preference of their pre-ordained crap choice.

          I’m not generally in favour of encouraging to not vote for a candidate they want. So regardless of the results of previous primaries, I’m going to advocate for people to, you know, vote. Didn’t realize that was a spicy take here.

        Technically true, but my number one political issue is defeating Republicans, and at this point in time I don’t see any reason to believe anyone besides the Democratic party’s nominee can do that

        Nevermind the fact that the primaries aren’t even done yet, which is a prime time to vote for anyone but those two

        I did say “this fall,” but yeah, I’m definitely not voting for Biden in the primaries, I completely hate the guy, I just hate Republicans way way way more
