There is a huge difference between condoning an assassination attempt, and forcefully conveying the message that Trump is just one more a victim of his own violent rhetoric.

Trump lost the popular vote to Clinton by 2.9 million votes. He lost to Biden by 8.8 million votes. The last Republican president to win the popular vote was George W. Bush.

It’s a Republican’s best friend, the Electoral college. More people want progressive candidates, not regressive backwards criminals.

In other words, you have a poor understanding of how First Past the Post works, and never could be bothered to read about it, or the long, failed history of voting 3rd party in our FPtP system. Because why make an informed decision, when you can just say “Nah, I’m throwing the election to the fascists.”

Either that, or you’re actually a Republican hoping to hook weaker-minded people into “Voting Green”. Which one is the sadder betrayal of democracy, I wonder?

Because for someone to get elected, they need more than just YOUR vote, David.

There are millions of voters that might agree with points 1,2,3 and 4, but don’t think it’s a genocide. They won’t vote for your guy.

Millions more agree with 1,2,3 and 5. But your guys ideas on Healthcare is a non-starter. More lost votes.

See where I’m going here? Your guy didn’t even say a WORD about abortion rights, immigration, gun laws, unemployment, inflation, global war and terrorism, technology threats, the economy, tariffs, and so much more.

It’s not the DNCs fault. Do you know how the Republicans made abortion illegal again? They attacked it year after year, and nobody on the left defended it. We just sit in message boards passively crying “Give us a suitable candidate!!”
