It’s a significant reversal from recent history: President Joe Biden is struggling with young voters but performing better than most Democrats with older ones.

    Only one of two people is going to win. It’s about as true of a dichotomy as you can get in politics. Your other option is to throw away your vote, which is the same as not voting.

      There are at least six people running. Three are running on the genocide platform, three are running on the human decency platform. It’s about as true of a dichotomy as you can get in politics.

        Two of those people have a chance at winning. Four of those people have a chance at splitting the vote enough that the other of the two wins.

        I don’t like that that’s how our system is. It’s fucked. But that is how our system is.

          He’s like a dude playing the lotto. “Well either I win or I don’t, that’s two possible outcomes… 50/50 chance.”

          One of them is actively aiding an ongoing genocide. You are shilling for them. I hope you sleep well at night

            If living in this reality means I’m a shill, then I guess I’m a shill. How much do you want to bet me that someone other than Biden or Trump will win? If you’re willing to bet anything on that, then you’re a damned fool.

            I’m sorry that we don’t live in your fantasy world where we actually do have another choice. It sounds nice there. But since we live in the real world, you have two choices. Biden or Trump. Since Trump is actually a fascist who wants to end democracy in the United States, I’ll be voting for Biden, thanks.
