A memo circulating in Donald Trump’s orbit says that if elected he should use private firms to check appointees’ backgrounds and give them immediate access to classified secrets after taking office.
This is exactly what you’d do if your circle was filled with Russian agents.
American and want to stop this? Vote for Harris & volunteer for her campaign
It is really scary how close the race is and how far he is in the lead with a lot of polls.
People out here talking about sitting this one out or throwing a protest vote out for a third party. I’m just shaking my head.
What if I told you it benefits the media companies (mostly run by Republican supporters) if it always looks like it’s neck and neck. It doesn’t actually get the right voters out.
Fuck what the media says the count is, just vote ppl
These people seem to think if they don’t vote, the Democrats will face some kind of reckoning because the voters are not “endorsing” them. I’m not sure how that’s supposed to work or what anyone is then supposed to do about it under a fascist dictatorship. In fact, it’s so obviously nonsense that you have to wonder whether these people have other motives that they’re not stating.
It really depends which state they vote from, and which side they vote for.
If you’re a democrat in idaho…why even bother? The electoral college at that point insures that if you vote for a democrat, your vote doesn’t matter.
However, if you vote 3rd party it sends the message that you KNOW your vote doesn’t matter, and the system is broken.
Now, if you’re in a swing state, or even a state that could be a swing state, then you’re just an asshole if you vote 3rd party.
As we’ve recently found out in the last few years, conservative bastions are not as solidly red as we believe. If you’re a Democrat in Idaho, fucking vote Democratic. It matters.
