Your protest "non-vote" will be about as meaningful, and harmful, as those cast for the libertarian candidate. "I'm voting on principle," they like to say.
In this case it will be. A non-vote, or a vote for "Aleppo guy" (whoever it is this time) is a vote for Trump. How so? Because the Trump/maga base is going to turn out strong regardless—because "libs must not be allowed to win".
Rewarding a democrat president as bad as Biden with a second term is worst than 4 years of Trump, Desantis etc.It tells the democrat party they can do nothing on healthcare,police reform,college debt or free state college,criminal justice reform,abortion rights,increasing taxes on the rich ,issue a 1,000 more oil drilling permits than Trump,cave to republicans on debt ceiling/budget deals,downright stab the people who voted for you on multiple issues in the back etc and still win a 2nd term because the republican is so bad.Biden winning a 2nd term assures future democrat presidents will be just like him as they know they wont have to do anything or keep any promises to win a 2nd term. Id rather let the democrat party know that their vote for our conservative democrat nominee or you get a republican president bluff will be called.
They make perfect sense imo.I voted for the Dem nominee for president since I could vote.You've seen my post for years to know how much I hate republicans.Biden is so bad Ive switched to The Green Party and am at peace with a 2nd Trump term and republican presidents for the rest of my life if this is what we are going to get from democrats.As Biden polling consistently shows,Im not the alone.
