    That’s what they said last time. I’ll hold my nose and vote for him but I don’t expect anything to improve and I’m not going to stop bitching about it.

      At this point, I’ll settle for “hold things together without sliding into pure fascism”. Staying in a crappy place you are is better than going somewhere worse.

      But yes, you should be doing whatever you can to make things where you are better in the meantime.

        “hold things together without sliding into pure fascism

        Except we’ve been doing that since 2016, for lots of even 2012 after we felt let down by Obama.

        But take a second and think. Are we closer to the threat of pure fascism now than in 2016?

        It’s just a question of how fast we slide, which long term is unsustainable. We need to at least stop the slide and we just have t been doing that.
