    I’m being asked to choose between Lung Cancer or Heart Disease. My personal answer? I’m not playing, thanks anyway.

      But I am also not going to get all high and mighty and insulting on anybody else over how they vote.

      Unless it’s for Biden.

      Or Trump.

        Again, ask yourself who can do the most damage to the country, Trump or Biden?

        In reality, those are your choices.

        I think the weaponization of the Just-Us Department may be one of the worst things to happen in D.C. in decades...

          I have to agree. The fact that it is, however openly or clandestinely, supported by a major party is terrifying to me. The things I hear about why I should be terrified of Trump as a threat to democracy hold no water outside 1/6. He is not the first presidential candidate to question the election, but he is the first one to act on it in this manner. I question his judgment.

            1. You honestly believe that genie is going back in that bottle?

            2. You honestly believe Trump would put that genie back in the bottle?

            Or, do you think (like I do) that Trump is thinking “Oh… That’s allowed? Okay… Wait till it’s my turn again…”

            I think it’s just going to get worse.

              The thought experiments of "if he does this, then he becomes Fascist Dictator..." seem to end up at SCOTUS, and SCOTUS, in the minds of the rational, rather than the TDS infected, is not in Trump's court.

              They also tend to include "executive orders", which, if we democracy-minded people have an issue with, then we democracy-minded people should probably vote to put some limits on.

                Unless stopped by SCOTUS, it's going to get worse, Trump or no.

                Politics is MAD, on a much smaller scale. Successful nations limit the antics of political parties through good law and fair application of those laws.

                  Frankly, I don’t think many on the right want to fix it (not that I’m sure it can be fixed, including by the Supreme Ct). I think they are more interested in revenge and escalation. I’m sure Donald will deliver for you. Enjoy.

                  I will admit that I will get some vicarious pleasure out of watching people’s heads explode and the gnashing of teeth and wailing that will come from a Trump victory…

                    Mr. DeNiro seems to actually believe that Mr. Trump will never leave.

                    People are funny.

                      At Trump’s age and BMI, he can be President for Life and not go past 2028.

                        My feelings are not that far off his, although I would prefer not to vote for him. It really comes down to what you think the greatest threat to the republic is.

                        I can understand that position. And while I wouldn't mind Trump's impact to the stock market, SCOTUS, and unscripted press conferences... his actions during his time in office and handling of the election loss makes that answer easy for me. It's hard to describe the ripple effect from the election... tens of millions still believe he didn't lose, believe there is widespread election fraud and conspiracies, think it's normal for an outgoing President not to attend inauguration activities for his successor or communicate an acceptance of a transition of power. It's all just mind boggling and I refuse to become numb to it.

                        Yeah, I was talking to someone about that there was no evidence, etc of vote fraud, and their response was something like, "the absence of evidence does not equal that the evidence does not exist"

                        I felt like saying, "Okay, I believe that you are a child molester, The absence of evidence does not equal that evidence does not exist." But, it was smarter to keep my mouth shut. LOL
