As bad as that's sounds,  it's still preferable to Trump.  If I were in Vegas I would bet that Trump dies before Biden.  Biden is older but healthier.

The same people who depend on Snopes to prove others are misinformed seem to have a problem cross-checking their own lies and disinformation.

My lack of confidence in biden as a president is only overshadowed by the fact that kamala is his vice president.

Why can't people see that.  The perfect storm of incompetence.

The only people I see voting for this dynamic duo is the weird community (trans, LGBQT, the its and the whats and the thems), the diversity crowd who needs diversity due to their incompetence and entitlement mentality, the students that don't want to repay their loan debt, and the millions of illegals here on the governments dime.

And oh yeah, the sheeple that listen to rocks and okras.

Maybe President Harris would be a blessing in disguise. If thats how cringe it has to get to finally snap people out of their trance then so be it.

Kind of like chemo-therapy?  You have to get as close as possible to dying from the drugs before you have a chance of getting over the cancer.

i'd agree with the analogy if Biden were the cancer, and Harris were the chemo.  Unfortunately, we'd be trading brain cancer for colon cancer.

I have no regrets, I will vote for biden this year.   Almost anything is better than Trump.  Shame the GOP stood a real chance of winning, but they shot themselves in the foot and picked trump.

Or vote 3rd party....

Historically, a third party vote is a wasted vote going to a candidate with no mathematical chance of winning a single electoral vote for president.

However, the few viable 3rd party candidates who actually received electoral votes wound up splitting the popular and electoral votes 3 ways instead of 2.  That means there's a smaller pie -- i.e. if the 3rd party candidate gets any electoral votes, it's that much harder for the GOP and Dim candidates to achieve the required 270.

If no candidate wins at least 270 electoral votes, the House of Representatives, choosing from among the top three electoral college finishers, elects the president by simple majority vote.  The Senate selects the VP, who may or may not be from the same party.

Ordinarily, a 3rd party candidate aligns more with one type of voter than the rest. Ross Perot was ultra-conservative, and therefore "stole" the votes GHW Bush needed to defeat Clinton.  Most Green Party, Libertarian or Independent candidates tend to appeal more to Liberals, and because of RFK's family's history as well-loved Democrats, it's reasonable to predict Democrat voters may decide to abandon the horrible Biden/Harris ticket in favor of a better option.  That would hurt Biden and help Trump.

So, based on all of that, I strongly encourage anyone who deosn't support Trump and is not happy with Biden to vote 3rd party.

I forgot what state is was, but Biden won by about 13,000 votes and about 100K votes went to the 3rd party candidate.  So in theory, I'm guessing a libertarian/green voter would vote for Trump over Biden if they had to choose between the 2.  This would mean that Biden would have to had cheated more to beat Trump.  We had this discussion with our old poster who votes libertarian and says lul, bruh, trust paypal, etc...The basics were that 3rd parties don't come close to winning, so it's a waste of a vote just so 1 can feel good about voting for their 3rd party candidate.  A vote for 3rd party was a vote for Biden.

Both Opah and the Rock got flak for asking the public to donate to the Lahaina relief fund.
The Rock still made good on his $5 million pledge. Opah did not give a penny, but she did donate
some blankets.

She donated pillows while buffing up security on her estate to keep people off.

I am surprised that the Governor hasn't seized her property yet to house Lahaina fire survivors.

Maybe but we are never going to challenge the duopoly unless someone actually votes 3rd party.

Also need to change the rules that discriminate against 3rd party/independent candidates as well.
