Ah, the lesser of two evils.
This is why the Democrats never do much. They know we'll have to vote for them because the Republicans are always going to be slightly worse.
And every four years, the worse of the two evils gets more evil, so the lesser of the two can also get worse and we still have to vote for them.
So it's an effective strategy to prevent meaningful change.
Few things funnier than listening to an old disenfranchized neoconservative whine that the Dems aren't effective anymore. You gave MAGA your party, so kindly piss off.
What part of stop voting for the greater evil is so very, very difficult for you? You won't get "meaningful change" as long as you keep electing and empowering Mad King Donald.
If you consistently voted the greater evil out of power then sooner or later the other party would either fade into obscurity or choose to become the lesser evil. That is how you get change.
