That is never an accurate across the board assessment. I despise Trump and the things that have happened, and been allowed, during his presidency. Do I think Biden is the one who can fix this cluster? Nope, but we were never really given a choice.
As in other elections I will be voting for the lesser of two evils. This time one of the evils is really diabolical.
All I hope for is Biden to win and stop some of this madness. Actually my real hope is that he wins so I can watch when they have to pull Trump kicking and screaming out of the White House...come to think of it, that's maybe why he has a wall around it so that can't be caught on anyone's cellphone to go viral.
That seems to be the consensus. Biden is unlikely to be the problem-solving savior people are looking for, but he’s less bad than Trump.
And marketing a candidate that way - ‘Vote Smith - He Isn’t Jones!!’ - is nothing new. It has a long and storied history.

And on the other topic this thread seems to have devolved into, I don’t think OLB is some sort of secret Republican operative. Simply because some people would like to pigeonhole him into a neat little compartment (and can’t do it) doesn’t justify labeling him as a Trumpite. He seems more concerned with policies than with parties. How is that a bad thing?

I have always leaned Democrat but only once have I voted straight ticket. I am more interested in the person because that's what matters and not so much their political party affiliation. There are those right, left, and center in both major parties.
As for Biker...he shoots straight (that phrase ought to rile some of the tender folks here) but he stays consistent. I don't agree with all the things he has said and at times I have been very frustrated with him. Over all he's become someone that the special snowflakes love to hate on. Those delicate little flowers make me roll my eyes when they trot out their SJW spiel in an attempt to discredit OLB. Whatever...most people wear that SJW shit as a badge of honor because it's the "right" thing to stay PC.
I would rather interact with people who have different stances on some things than just hang out in an echo chamber.
Biker fucking hates tattoos...I have several...we are still able to be friends...I think. It's the differences in people that makes life interesting.
