Gee, I wish I was privileged enough to ignore politics. 🙄 Unfortunately for me, my existence is "political", according to the GOP, and they'd like to see me dead in a ditch.

If I keep giving myself anxiety over things I have little to no control over, I won't be able to go on. In a fair world, things would never have gotten this bad, but it's not fair, and sometimes people really can't handle it. I have to shut it out, or else I'll end up hurting myself and others.

Tell me about it I was a Yang supporter.
I like Warren too, I don't know why she didn't do better. I think she was way more electable than Hilary.

Not even close, because she's an amateur.
All of your people are electable...you just don't vote for them.

Honestly, I think her problem was that her platform was basically a diet version of Bernie, with the only things to make her stand out being an extra X chromosome, a history of claiming she was part-Native American, and a surprisingly long history as a conservative (she was a Republican until 1996 and shades of this occasionally shone through even in this election cycle.) Being a woman was certainly a breath of fresh air (admittedly, it would have been moreso if Hilary Clinton hadn't become the 2016 candidate), but if that's really the only positive thing to differentiate her from Bernie, it's kinda inevitable that her bid failed.

Just saw where someone (a friend of a friend) said that Biden is a womanizer and a 'petifile'. That's the spelling by a deep south Trump supporter...even autocorrect didn't have a guess...be afraid...be very afraid.

I've seen some videos with Joe being a little weird around women but nothing outrageous. I'll vote for him because he meets my criteria of being a potato or better i.e. not trump.

Given how she attacked Bernie, I get the feeling she was placed there just to pull progressives away from him. I don't know why she would endorse Biden over him, if she actually cared about policy. Then again, Tulsi supported Biden over Bernie too. It kind of blows my mind.

I feel like I need to bathe in hand sanitizer now and we don't have nearly enough.
UGH!
The Trump supporters won't believe this anyway. Their Donald can do no wrong...and when he does do wrong it's for the right reasons. We are so screwed.
