    I voted Green Party (lol) but I did think at the time Biden would be a very marginal improvement, but voting Trump was unironically harm reduction. Biden has been far worse than Trump both in actual policy and in the “hearts and minds” battle.

    Trump got the libs angry and energized and on our side. Biden makes the libs either fall asleep or lash out at us for recognizing their emperor has no clothes, while also somehow managing to make the chuds froth at the mouth even more than before even though he’s literally giving them more of what Trump promised than Trump did!

      I was kinda thinking the same about a first term Biden administration, no progress, but at least holding the line where it was when he took office. I was unhappily surprised (though I know I shouldn't be) when he just straight up did all the Trump/Republican things the libs where squealing about for eight years.

        It’s been shocking. I was never under any illusion that Biden wasn’t evil, but the libs had convinced me that he wasn’t as bad as Trump, and he was at least making platitudes towards good things vs Trump’s bombastic denunciation of anything good.

        Nope, turns out Biden is actually to the right of Trump, or he is literally a vegetable and the people around him have totally dropped the ball. With a further inspection of his history, I’m going with option one.
