Reminder: Trump, being an insurrectionist, is barred from office by the Constitution. Any attempt to install him needs to be dealt with harshly and immediately, in no uncertain terms. Such violations of our most sacred foundational law cannot be tolerated. Then again, the GOP knows this, which is why we need to pay double attention to their VP candidate.

Having a democracy is a long term benefit - addressing more pressing issues like police brutality and superfund sites (that are almost exclusively in predominantly black neighborhoods and cause elevated health issues) are probably going to be more compelling on a statistical level.
Also, I don’t know how many times this needs to be said but shaming black voters for demanding policy changes and daring not to vote D is fucking stupid and infantilizing… some politicians are guilty of this but it’s mostly pundits and those pundits are fucking dumb.
As always, Biden is clearly better than Trump, but give voters a reason to be excited for Biden rather than just fearful of Trump. Excitement drives voter turnout.
Listening to what Trump says he will do day 1 and the 20,000 fascists waiting in the wings with standing orders to do what he says without question should be enough for everyone to get out to vote.
This isn’t going to be a rehash of 2016 where he didn’t know what the fuck he was doing, so he just stole shit. This time he will have people ready to jump in place to ignore the constitution and do as he says without question.
Get past Trump and his cult of personality, and you have a chance to fix democracy. He wins, and I guarantee we Balkanize. That would, really, really, suck.
You’d be surprised how many countries would appreciate your immigration even if you aren’t some crazy executive type. Immigration is a difficult process but it usually costs less than three thousand dollars in actual cash.
It’s not binary. Them not voting for Biden doesn’t mean they’re going to vote for Trump. It could mean they just stay home and not vote. That’s what Biden needs to fix.
