      False dichotomy. You don’t need to support Trump to oppose warmonger Biden and the Democratic Party.

        He could have, at the bare minimum, used the leverage he had coming out of the primaries to try to affect the democrats platform to some degree. It would have been a drop in the bucket honestly, but the bucket is bone dry. Instead he just spat on everyone who supported him and threw everything in behind Biden of all people.

        His message may have been one part of my early radicalization process, and I am thankful for that, but he’s never truly cared about anything except funneling stray liberals who have been just a bit too left for the party’s liking.
