I'm getting fucking sick of this orange fuck lying and causing the United States to fall behind. END THE TARIFFS. If you don't vote you're a part of the problem.

Mate I am here, I can tell you the blue side is better but god damn do I understand how many times it feels pointless.

We have so many issues in this country that have been caused by bipartisan actions like flock cameras, the prison system, regulation of the rich it can be very easy for someone to look at things and not see how things change.

Needless to say you still need to vote blue but I don't like this shit where we pretend this is happening for no reason. It makes my stomach churn the idea I may very soon have to vote between two transphobes as a trans woman and consequently making the dems go "Oh so being anti-trans is the right position!"

I'll still vote Democrat, "for now."
