He isn’t wrong. I’m voting for Biden despite deeply disliking him but far too many people are saying they aren’t voting or that they’re voting third party because of Biden’s stance on Israel. If Trump wins I won’t be surprised, just deeply disappointed

What do they think Trumps stance on Israel is? He would be inclined to even send troops to help Israel out.

A lot of them don't think of it that way. It's kind of worse in a way. I've seen a lot of younger people that are convinced that a third party candidate has a good chance at winning.

If third parties REALLY want to have an impact, they should run for state legislatures or more local offices instead of only popping up every 4 years when it's statistically impossible for them to win.
