Ah, Ross Perot! Should I dare admit it? - I voted for him! That year my big issue was the loss of jobs to foreign competition so, yes, I helped enable Bill Clinton's election. And somehow the Republic survived, and the GOP returned to power in due time. And the divided government it produced a couple of years later resulted in some good, sensible legislation. And over time I even came to admire Bill Clinton in certain respects.
While I won't argue with you that Trump is likely "worse" than Biden - that's why I voted for Hillary in 2016 and Biden in 2020 - what I refuse to do again is be forced to decide between the lesser of two evils. As citizens, we deserve better. And Biden does not deserve re-election, not based on his record of weakness and far-left arse-kissing, and the lawlessness taking place at the border.
I want a choice I can be proud of, just like millions of others who look at a Biden-Trump rematch and cringe. Instead I see Democrats in hysterics that Trump means the end of democracy, even as they violate democratic norms themselves by conducting lawfare against third party candidates and effectively destroying the Trump opposition within my own party by lending credibility to Trump's claims of martyrdom.
No, the Democratics deserve to be spanked by the voters just as surely as the Republicans do. The Trump that you and I both despise would not be sailing towards the GOP nomination if not for the in-kind contributions made by the likes of the New York and Georgia AGs.
I had been hoping against hope that Nikki Haley could mount a serious challenge, but the partisans on both sides won't permit it. So that leaves up to the powerless to act in the only ways we can. Better to throw my vote away than having to vote and throw up.
