      …yes…? It’s also less bad than the alternative. And you’re not going to be able to persuade me that voting 3rd party in the general is a good idea, because it is most definitely not a good idea if you want to prevent Trump from getting into office.

      I hate the two-party system too. But pretending it doesn’t exist is a great way to get steamrolled by it.

        This wasn’t the point though. It is that both options are bad. Yes, one is objectively less bad, but I’d guess a majority of Americans will not vote for Biden but instead against Trump.

        I will absolutely cast a vote for Biden, but not because I like Biden.
