    I actually think the opposite shows more.

    “The orange idiot calls me a communist, but even these pieces of shit are voting for me over him.”

    I think too many people are confusing am endorsement by a piece of shit and supporting that piece of shit, like Cheney’s endorsement somehow will mean Harris agrees with him.

    All it means is a massive turd is saying “Don’t vote for the diaper full of massive fascsist turds”.

      Let it sink in:

      Angela Davis - an avowed Marxist-Leninist- and Dick-fucking-Cheney both agree Kamala is the way to go.

      How the hell is this election even close?

      (And we can add Liz Cheney to that. She and her dad are both neo-con warmongers.)

      Edit: any one have a good punchline to “Dick Cheney and Angela Davis walk into a bar….”?

        I don’t know who she is but maybe something to do with getting (a) shot?

        I understand the sentiment, but I think it’s obvious why this election is close. Harris fucking sucks as a candidate. Apart of whether or not people should vote for her, she’s a coward that refuses to take a stand (or even make promises) on literally anything while actively alienating two significant demographics in the swing states she needs to win and opting instead to get the five or so swing voters that exist in America to vote for her. If Trump was slightly more competent she’d have had no chance.

              I’m not American. Could you elaborate? Is this your personal experience as part of said demographic(s)? I understand if you don’t wish to disclose that. I’m just curious as this election will affect me nonetheless.

                Not American either, but the stats are clear that these two particular demographics are not okay with the current situation.

                  But — but surely they recognise Trump supports them even less? Apathy overpowering self-preservation is exactly what they want.

                    It’s a bit of a lose-lose situation. Vote and you tell the democrats that you’re fine with the bullshit they’ve been up to the last four years, including nominating a candidate without a primary. Don’t vote and, well, you get Trump. Now logically it might make more sense to vote anyway, but these things don’t follow logic except very roughly.
