    The only way to change the conditions of the test is to get out and support Left-leaning Dems in primaries.

    And no, not all choices are valid. Voting doesn’t just affect the voter, it affects the whole country.

      You have no idea what I’m trying to communicate and it’s disconcerting to me. It’s a failure on my part to communicate effectively. I’m sorry.

        Keep at it. You learn by doing something; making a mistake; then doing it again a little better.

          I’m going to assume, from your replies, that you don’t think this election is a no-win situation?

          But others do, which is illustrated in OP’s Arendt comment. Those concerns are material, whether true, or not. Dismissing vote abstainers, or third party voters, doesn’t address those concerns. Only Biden and the DNC can do that.

            Or, people could look at the situation as it is.

            Trump and his MAGoos are going to do everything they can to take as many rights away from people as they can.

            In the real world of 2024, the only option is Joe Biden.

            There’s no magical super candidate that’s going to pop up between now and November.

            With the latest Supreme Court decision, re-elected President Trump could deputize 5 million of his followers on Inauguration Day.

            You don’t have to love Joe Biden, or even like him. Just realize that Trump is for full on fascist takeover of the US and Biden isn’t.
