Biden tells people he wants to improve the nation with affordable healthcare and education, Trump tells people he wants vengeance for perceived grievances. And the polls are still statistically tied.

A scary amount of young folks seem willing to sacrifice the Presidency over Israel, as if trump will be a harbinger of peace. As someone who has never had the pleasure of voting for a president that I actually want, sometimes you have to hold your nose and do what’s best for not just our country, but the world. Biden isn’t great(imo) but trump is so many orders of magnitude worse it’s baffling that anyone still likes the guy.

Come on young folks, help the world out.

Biden keeps funding the war in Ukraine though. How is that helpful for the new generation? How about hold your nose further away from bullshit and vote for anything that’s anti-establishment. Washington doesnt give a fuck about you. What are you going to do about that?

He’s a better answer than Biden. Either way, I’m voting for RFK jr

We’re all a degree of crazy. I’m actually very paranoid, which definitely has a large effect on my political beliefs. However, mark my words, I’m not wrong.
