    I wish more people could see this, and understand it. It’s a bit shocking to me how little empathy people have. Empathy isn’t just about knowing when to give someone a hug- it’s also about understanding what makes some people angry (among other things). Removing Trump from the ballot in California would do FAR more harm than anything else.

    I agree with (you) and Newsome on this one

      One thing which keeps sticking with me that was mentioned on another thread that I agree with, is precedence. If blue/liberal states start trying to remove him from their ballots, what’s going to stop the red/conservative states from trying to do the same for Biden?

      It may just keep escalating to a larger bickering match between the states akin to children fighting over what channel to watch.

        I doubt that would happen, but I also never thought I’d see the day that human rights in the U.S. went backward, either
