      Undecideds:

      On the one hand, I am concerned about his basic fitness for office. But on the other hand, I am also concerned that the competent lady who has been in office for the past four years may not totally agree with me on everything. How can I possibly choose between them?

          Not saying I condone political violence, but the Democratic Party has absolutely not been willing to stop Republicans “by any means necessary, even violence”.

          Large parts of “the Left”, maybe; but certainly not the actual party politicians.

          Political violence is an inevitability. It’s up to us to ensure we get the best possible type of violence.

        For a lot of them, I don’t think it goes any farther than: “Yeah he says things I don’t necessarily agree with, but groceries are more expensive than ever and I just want things to be different.”

          I saw something a few weeks ago that went something like “People really about to elect a fascist who wants to terminate the constitution just to shave $0.50 off the price of eggs.”

          Really, it should have been “because they think he’ll shave $0.50 off the price of eggs.”, because he doesn’t have a policy plan to tackle inflation. He doesn’t have a plan at all aside from staying out of prison.
