2020 was… truly unique. It was so hard to stay away from doom scrolling, and I (and many others) were pretty disillusioned by the sad fact that so much of our country legitimately supported the Orange Man. I didn’t get a wink of sleep the night of the election because I genuinely considered it to be a make or break decision for America.

My point is that looking back on it, in the end the only real difference I made was at the ballet box. This year I’m going for the Head-in-the-Sand approach. I’m done with the political memes. Done with the Twitter screenshots. It just riles me up and this year I’m gonna do my best to fight that.

    You can have a choice, where one outcome is significantly better than the other. It’s that simple.

      I also think that trump will cause less civilian death overseas. I guess we both know who we’re voting for.

        The only positive things that happen under a narcissist dictator like Trump will be by accident while he’s trying to steal everything and jail his enemies.

          You don’t care about the death of non-americans. You are just as bad as the right wingers that your claim moral superiority over.

              facts? how many civilian deaths is trump responsible for and how many is biden responsible for? If you care about facts and you care about the lesser of two evils then those numbers should be pretty important.
