Since the Democrats didn't give every single thing on the bLuEmAGa screechers wishlist, ofc Trump was the perfect alternative!
Definitely not an example of letting perfection become the enemy of good or anything!
Edit: To whoever replied to me, but probably has me blocked since I can't see it (only the reply counter) unblock me if you're going to reply to me, coward!
Letting perfection become the enemy of good? Good is funding a genocide?

Keeping your most important ally in the Middle East isn't about good or bad. It's simply necessary.

You aren't just voting for the person to have power. You're voting for their party to have power. It wasn't just about Joe Biden or Kamala Harris.
