    It’s the people’s fault for not selecting the low-sodium turd soup.

    EDIT: Guys, I voted for harris. Stop trying to convince me to vote how I voted in an election that already happened. I’m telling you that if you keep running candidates who won’t represent the people, the people won’t vote for them.

      They’re both bad, but I would absolutely rather have piss soup than turd soup (to use the analogy here)

      Just because both sides are bad doesn’t mean one side isn’t significantly, exponentially worse.

      Frederick Douglas was an escaped slave who fought for Abolition.

      Back in 1860 he had a choice. He could back the Abolition candidate, who was almost certain to lose, or to back Abe Lincoln. Lincoln had said that saving the Union was more important then ending slavery.

      Douglas decided it was smarter to help Lincoln win and get a seat at the table, than to lose and be shut out.

      Did I mention that Douglas had actually been a slave?
