Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) panned Democrats who are upping their criticisms of President Biden ahead of the November election, saying they might as well don a “MAGA hat.” Fetterman not…
I mean, I’m still voting for Biden over any of the Nazis on the red team, but the whole funding-a-genocide-on-gaza thing is going to make it a pretty unenthused vote.
I really wish I could vote for someone on a basis other than lesser evil.

Down-ballot exists! That’s where I’m most enthusiastic about voting. There might be some places where it’s just lesser evil option in some down-ballots, unfortunately, but you’re more likely to have a representative that represents voters within the down-ballot which makes lesser evil choice less likely.
And has the added benefit of a vastly lower vote count so your vote matters much more. The general election for my state rep got like 4,000 votes. And it was a blowout as expected, so really it was decided in the primary where there were a little over 2,000. One of the other races was literally decided by a single vote!
Exactly. The game sucks, but it exists and one must play to win. The other team has been remarkably successful at working every lever to their advantage for half a century now.
I got to vote for Bernie Sanders twice. That was the only time I’ve voted for a politician I fully support, as opposed to voting for not-the-republican.

It would be nice if our team wasn’t treating the “game” as a friendly co-op match.
During a vs match lmao

It’s almost like it’s an election season or something.
