        Probably the incumbent Democrat. Losing the popular vote doesn’t really disqualify thou gettin winning the office

        Since you seem to lack the intelligence needed, I’ll enlighten you! It’s Trump! He will win because Democrats would rather lose than run a viable centrist candidate.

        But that’s weird, I could have sworn all you blue MAGAts promised the exact same thing in 2019. Our democracy is at stake, we must vote Blue no matter who to stop fascism.

        That’s weird, I could have sworn the same thing happened in 2008 and 2012 as well. I had so much {{{hope}}} but all that happened was a retail debt fueled spending spree and no healthcare. Oh right, the banking industry must have been punished for that, surely? They didn’t just shift the bubble to permanent debt like student loan backed securities and securities fraud?

        Damn they said that in 1992 and we got Glass-Steagall repealed. But look we ran a federal surplus, hooray all is well!

        It’s so strange, I keep holding my nose and voting blue no matter who but the US keeps getting more right wing and capitalists keep consolidating power.

        Can you explain why this time will be totally different? After all, according to your logic, if a vote for not-Biden is a vote for Trump just like you say, then a vote for Biden must be a vote for Trump as well?

        I mean, we voted blue so there should be plenty of examples of Democrats taking material action to reject fascism and the wholesale plunder of the working class by capitalists, right?

        The blues will fight back this time, right? They’ll reverse the line, right?

              Whelp, thanks for letting us know youre either too stupid to extrapolate on basic data or youre arguing in bad faith.

              Usually accounts like this dont just outright say it like you did.

                Not everyone who disagrees with your conclusions or world view is arguing in bad faith. I’d say calling someone stupid is arguing in bad faith, personally.

            Neither candidate seems likely to do anything but perpetuate the genocide, that does appear to be the case.

                Ok, I think Gaza will actually do better under a Trump administration because liberals actually scrutinize Trump and rally against what he does. Whereas, we get nothing but excesses for the failures (to say nothing of the humanitarian crimes) of Biden’s administration.
