Why NOT to vote Republican

[bae]

When Trump was a Democrat he probably admired Teddy Kennedy and Chris Dodd's adventures with waitress sandwiches, as well as their ability to not have it held against them.

One of my favourite conspiracy theories(*) is that Trump is a deep-cover Democrat plant, sent to destroy the Republican Party.

(*) collect the whole set, it's a fun party game

Seriously? You are/were a major trump supporter. This comment makes one wonder?

I'm not sure why you would say that, I was more of a least worst option supporter.

If he was your idea of least worst option I’d be curious what your idea of worst worst option was…and why you thought they were worse than trump.

When faced with a choice between a lying, venal, incompetent braggart and Trump, I went with the third party candidate.

Right, me too, but next time around I may have to enter a valid vote against Trump if he is the candidate (which likely will not happen anyways.) That means I will have to vote for the Democratic candidate and as a non-believer I PRAY they will give me a nonBiden choice, but time is a-wasting for that savior to emerge.

Heck, I always thought Trump was indeed the lying, venal, incompetent braggart, and still is. And also a crook and cheat.

I hope the choices improve next time around.

This came up on my FB memories recently as something I had posted on 11/2/16:
Today I walked by the town hall on the way to the library and I saw a sign for early voting. I realized that somewhere deep inside I'm hoping that if I wait there will be better choices, you know, like when they restock the shelves at the store or something - oh good, they just brought out a pile of green bananas, so I don't have to take the ones with the brown spots after all!

Desantis is as big a moron as trump. In July 2021 he said vaccines saved many lives and now is spewing garbage. He is truly an idiot. He ranks with Marjorie Taylor Greene.

It's interesting watching the PR campaign against DeSantis and the effect it has on people looking for a reason to hate Republicans. If polls didn't show him handily defeating Biden in a future election, those same folks would probably not know his name.
