    A great philosopher once noted that Evil will always triumph, because Good is dumb.

      50 years of accepting any degree of evil has resulted in these two pieces of shit being the options available. The lesser evil eventually grows into an enormous evil

        People really have absolutely no idea how much genuinely good things Biden has done because they only pretend to care about Gaza and they’re too stupid to realize that Trump will be 100x worse for the entire world including Gaza

    Biden thinks he’ll be winning against Trump. In fact he’ll be not losing to someone even worse than him. If the conservative idiots would nominate an even slightly same candidate, Biden would be in real trouble . The only thing that keeps this asshole afloat is the even bigger asshole on the other side and the idiots not able to free themselves from him. Holy shit, this is so fucked up.

      There isn’t anyone on the republican side to really oppose Trump. The typical republican insider is no longer popular with voters, many tried to imitate Trump, but that fails because it’s more about the outsider status than absurd statements. They could have tried an actual conservative candidate, but that’s unthinkable to the republican elite, like running Sanders is to democrats.

      The democrats have done a horrible job curating future candidates. The Republicans aren’t much better, but at least have a lot of governors. With 12/16 years of the presidency they have no one electable on the national stage. This is a failure of leadership to not have one cabinet or congressional official be someone with a future.

      This leads us to a race where the most popular option would be neither of these two.

        Exactly what I meant. They failed to realize that neither is a good choice and now all the spares they have is assholes or candidates they don’t trust.

        Great job, really.

    So. Our democracy hinges on the fact that the lesser of two evils is being a clown, to protect a ICC criminal dictator, while innocent civilians die daily, and will for another 7 months, to American paid bombs.

    I wonder if we can move to Canada based on political asylum from Trump. Because if not, we are so fucked.
