    Only one of these two has promised “to be a dictator from day one.” I’ll give you a hint. It’s the same one who said that he’ll encourage Russia to attack NATO countries if he feels that they’re not pulling their weight. It’s the same one whose party released a more than 900 page manifesto last year that included the total destruction of state’s rights so that the federal government can punish state employees who don’t uphold the federal “Don’t Say Gay” law also included in the manifesto, as well as a list of 50,000 federal workers to be replaced with party loyalists.

    That’s not the same as not doing enough to fight climate change, not forgiving all student loans, and not having strong enough sanctions against Israel. Oh yeah, the other one opposes doing all 3 of those things at all and, in fact, wants to loosen restrictions on fossil fuel companies and increase the use of oil and coal while decreasing the use of green energy.

    I hope Russia pays you well, at least.

      I am saying there’s a real dichotomy between them

      I.e. a difference (in this case about as stark a difference as you could possibly imagine in a wildly exaggerated dystopian fantasy)

      I.e. I am saying what you are saying
