Similar feelings when you read books set in 1930s Europe.
“I want to leave, but Grandmere would never survive such a long voyage.”
Agreed. Airplane 2 had William Shatner parodying William Shatner.
I’ve heard of Newsom. I don’t know who this guy is, and apparently he’s not interested in the job. Both Sanders and Clinton have come out in favor of Biden. But I’ll make you a deal. If someone with a reasonable chance pops up, I’ll vote for them, if you promise to vote for Biden. Deal?
Who?
I follow politics and I honestly never heard of them.
And your second sentence presupposes a time machine.
Your playing the ‘just kidding, bro’ card?
Get some new material.
You can’t even come up with a name, but yes, let’s vote for 'Theoretical Better Candidate."
That’s the most privileged moral compass imaginable.
Actual people in America have died because of Trump’s policies. Not just due to Covid, but because they were denied abortions, or because the people with guns knew the cops wouldn’t care if a transperson got killed.
What are you going to say when Trump has the right to deputize a million or so Kyle Rittenhouses?
That you made the tough call?
Run any other Democrat with some publicity and bonafides.
You can’t even come up with a name, but yes, let’s vote for 'Theoretical Better Candidate."
Yes, and you attacking Biden is helping stop Trump how?

Or, people could look at the situation as it is.
Trump and his MAGoos are going to do everything they can to take as many rights away from people as they can.
In the real world of 2024, the only option is Joe Biden.
There’s no magical super candidate that’s going to pop up between now and November.
With the latest Supreme Court decision, re-elected President Trump could deputize 5 million of his followers on Inauguration Day.
You don’t have to love Joe Biden, or even like him. Just realize that Trump is for full on fascist takeover of the US and Biden isn’t.
Keep at it. You learn by doing something; making a mistake; then doing it again a little better.
The only way to change the conditions of the test is to get out and support Left-leaning Dems in primaries.
And no, not all choices are valid. Voting doesn’t just affect the voter, it affects the whole country.
Totally related to the issue.
The issue is that the IRS is underfunded because big GOP contributors don’t want to have to go toe to toe with an agency that can make them pay taxes.
That’s why Trump got a surge of money after his New York City trial lose; rich folks hate the idea that the law might be used against them.
I’m waiting for a remake of ‘The Dirty Dozen’ where one actor named Chris plays all the roles.
They took a negative and turned it into a rallying cry.
Same as with “Yankee Doodle.” Yankee was a derogatory term for Americans, because many were of Dutch origin. “Jan” was a popular Dutch name. Doodle mean, well doo-doo.
Funny how some derogatory terms get embraced and others don’t.
Nerd used to be a big insult. So was ‘porn.’
