    And you end up with the stupid idealist 3rd party voters that think “we’ll send a message with how we vote!” (Or don’t vote) not realizing the true impact they’re causing and the message it sends by having to go back to the center (which inches right more and more each time).

    3rd party does have a place, but not right now with how screwed up things are.

      Its forever going to be “not right now” for you, so we’re not waiting anymore, its only going to happen if we make it right now.

        No, no it’s not. And if Trump is elected again, it’s on anyone who things as much.

        And by “make it happen” you mean help get Trump elected and usher in a fascist dictatorship.

          Maybe one day you’ll entertain the notion that disregarding progressive voters and pushing a candidate you dont like could be to blame for trump winning, like in 2016.

            I’m sorry our bloc is too small to be properly represented on the national stage.
