Not a Biden fan, but this has been in my mind for a while now.

Saying the same thing with a different framing:


*Trump is the greatest threat to American democracy in history, he's a rapist, a tyrant, a white supremacist, and a genuine threat to the human race...*


*... so we should be fine running a candidate against him that JUST enjoys genocide.*


OP, you're missing the point. Yes trump is worse. The goal shouldn't be to run the most awful candidate that is still technically better than their opponent. The goal should be to run the best candidate.


And that is MORE TRUE, not some naive principle you set aside, when the opposing candidate is this bad.

So we shouldn't vote for Biden? Don't get me wrong I hope he either gets replaced by Harris or peacefully passes in his sleep. Voting isn't an act of moral expression, if they wheel him out in a coma I'll still vote for him, I am not going to enjoy it though.

**We shouldn't have to pick between Biden and Trump**. Is the point. Fucking obviously.

  
You want to do apologia for Biden, do it on November first. Until then, do the actually good thing - add your voice to those calling for him to step aside, so that somebody with a chance to win is on the ballot instead.

I agree, but that is the current reality that I hope to hell is changed. I am not doing apologia I hope he gets replaced with Harris.

Why Harris?
