Wanting the lesser of two evils on one issue to win is not the same as co-signing an entire party’s agenda.

I genuinely don’t understand how participation in democracy became conditional on 100% agreement on every issue. If you want a party to agree with you 100%, start a local party and run for local office in a non-presidential election.

Voting is supposed to be a civic duty, not a popularity vote and certainly not a purity test. Pull the lever and let the train hit one person instead of fucking everyone and everything. It’s not an intellectual exercise right now.

What is President Trump II / President Vance going to do about climate change? Women’s health? Concentration camps for immigrants? Future elections? Just please be reasonable and realistic.

She's doing as bad as trump on every single issue and has shown to be worse on some (deportations). On top of that people like you gave a shit when he was in office.
People are willing to forgive all of that as long as she isn't committing a genocide. And then you have the gall to talk about 100% agreement? Pull your head out of your ass. It's not just "this one little issue" (and even if it was, it's a FUCKING GENOCIDE) it's the fact she does nothing on all of them.

The same as Kamala.
Kamala will be worse though, because if you let her get away with genocide, then the gates are open. There's nothing left. Showing the ruling elite that you don't even fight against that, shows them they can do whatever they want. Doing that will be so much worse than having a slightly ruder and more obviously decrepit version of Joe Biden in office.
You will stand one day and ask who will speak up for you, and no one will for they will all be gone already.

Also elections are literally a popularity vote, dumbass
