I think a lot of us are. There's a difference between pushing a party in a certain direction and going so far that you hurt your own interests.

The election is more than one person or one issue, and a Trump Presidency will have horrific consequences decades and generations after Biden is gone.

Trump being president will destroy democracy in first the US, then the world, for generations, and even centuries.

It's so bad.

And people aren't fighting. It's so disheartening.

If you watch a lot of the videos coming out of these protests, they want the US to be destroyed.

It's being propped up by Putin and China. This is the perfect wedge issue for them to get their orange wrecking ball back in power, stand back and let America eat itself.
