    It’s really not, because a lot of left of center voters just won’t bother to vote for someone they don’t like.

        I never said they were rational. I’m saying they matter. Calling them idiots does nothing to keep Trump out of power.

        Maybe 2024 is the year people realize you can’t shame voters to the polls. 2016 should’ve been the year that lesson was learned, but alas, here we are.

          i’m convinced that there are permanent blind spots that all societies have and this is the american blind spot.

          i also wonder if it spells our demise as a society as well.

          We aren’t “protesting” anything. We are safeguarding America’s longstanding core values of democracy and the rule of law.

              We don’t value democracy and the rule of law because they are “cute”. We value them because countries that don’t have them are a nightmare to live in.

              • The party that sues to keep 3rd parties off the ballot, is a private corporation that can select their own candidates, and gives voters no choice but their hand selected candidate is the party of democracy?

                  is a private corporation that can select their own candidates

                  You want the Republicans and Democrats to be public corporations? The Democratic charter has specified since the 1950’s that voters chose the candidates.
