One candidate is a violent racist who openly talks about how foreigners aren’t humans, led a violent insurrection, and is campaigning on removing the basic human rights of half the country.
The other candidate has some REAL blind spots when it comes to “crime” and a hard-on for Israel but is otherwise good.
I could MAYBE understand a weird sense of ethics where “Well, women and LGBTQ folk deserve to suffer if we won’t protect Palestine” but it isn’t even like trump is going to protect Palestine either.
So get out of here with that “both sides” nonsense.
They’re talking about the projected results, not their merits as candidates. Their whole point was that the main grievance against Biden also applies to all other candidates, yet only Biden is being dinged for it.
I didn’t read this as a “both sides” comment. It looks to me like the “toss up” is about who is likely to win the election, rather than who deserves this commenter’s vote. The reason it’s close to a toss up is because there are enough violent racists willing to vote for the violent racist.
I’m not sure what you’re upset about in my comment.
All of the candidates have faults, but I do have a strong preference for one and one of them is an objectively better candidate on basically all issues (including the issue that all candidates share the wrong stance on).
And it very much is a toss up. 2 candidates in particular are trading leading positions on different polls. There’s probably gonna be less than half of eligible voters actually voting. And when they do, one candidate will almost definitely win the popular vote. And when they do it will once again be up to our antiquated electoral system to determine which of the candidates actually gets the seat. It’s not 1932, Trump very well could win and that’s bad.
If you think my critiques of Trump are the same as my recognition of success for Biden and that I’m somehow “both-sides-ing” I’m really not sure how to help you.
No. It is still nowhere “near a toss up”.
