When will be your “this is the last fucking time I’m voting for the ‘lesser of two evils’, then I don’t care after that, let this country burn to the ground”? For me, this is basically it. This is last election I’m going for that " lesser of two evils" bullshit. After that I’m done. It’s just pointless. Let’s hear it.

      Exactly. No matter what, there’s always a worse option. Always vote against the worse option.

        That then lets the least worse option have no actual policies, make zero substantive change while in office because they know you will always vote for them.

        But that is more about FPTP voting and the two party system.

          Biden has accomplished more legislation and gained more jobs than any POTUS since FDR. Not too bad.

      I am glad you can keep the faith and keep voting but I also understand the OP’s (and a lot of other american’s) ennui.

      When it seems the Dems biggest selling point is “Well, at least we are not the GOP” but have little or no actual policies to enrich the lives of the people who vote for them it must be very disheartening for millions of your average citizens when their options are terrible or more of the same with no real improvement.

          Possibly controversial opinion, the left needs a Fox News. A station that just unapologetically pushes liberal talking points and pays newsworthiness the same lip service that Fox does. Fuck this holier than thou bullshit we’ve got going on; fight propaganda with better propaganda.
