Can you explain to me, how removing progressives from the electorate, is going to help with progressive issues?
Have you considered the long term implications of removing progressives from the electorate, due to clairvoyance seeing a progressive candidate in 4 years?
Doing nothing is not a step forward. Don’t you think having fewer issues to deal with, when your imaginary progressive candidate in 4 years, starts fixing everything? If you have 0 empathy for people being hurt by the Trump administration, because Biden’s will only help some of them, your progressive views don’t seem to be about actually helping people. It seems more about pushing your ideology... after all, if Biden helps just 5% of the people Trump is damaging... that’s 16 million Americans that will not mind things going slower.
Well, before Trump... we had ACA, Paris Accord, Pandemic Response, deductibles, 15% higher tax on corporations, peace treaty with Iran, less travel restrictions, no threat of military in the streets, no trade war, no 2000 troops protecting Saudi oil, no bunker inspections as protestors rage, no accusing a protestors of being Antifa scanning cops, no QQ conspiracy and general embrace of conspiracy over education, clean water and air act, espestos would still be illegal, Blogoyovich would still be in jail, the schools at Fort Lewis would still all be open instead of funding going to the Wall... we see what happens when the lesser of two evils is not selected. How much time will your imaginary progressive candidate in 4 years going to spend fixing this and 4 more years of not selecting the lesser of two evils?
Oh and Jeb Bush’s son is woke... he is voting Trump...
Trump wouldn’t have won if people voted for lesser of two evils. Considering HillaryCare, odds are ACA would have been expended to a public option.
