    They will vote for a corpse, as long as it is not a Democrat. The same was true with Democrats when Joe Biden was still running.

      Difference is that a good number of Dem voters saw Biden’s issues and understood it’s a choice between those issues and a fascist that’ll deal the death blow to the moribund US democracy. Trump voters are just cooked.

      You get one - there isn’t a third option, and abstaining is a win for the fascists.

      I saw plenty of Democrats holding their nose to vote for Biden, while being very vocal about his age and cognition. I don’t see any criticism about Trump from his base. They shun any Republican politician who speaks out against him, so all we get is softballs from those not up for re-election again.

      I mean, why do you think Biden stepped down? It was pressure from voters, pressure from donors, and pressure from a ton of elected democrats. Where is that pressure on Trump?
