            Cheney interrupted a heckler disparaging Obama, to insist that Obama was a decent man who Cheney simply disagreed with on matters of policy. How far we’ve fallen.

            Edit: That was McCain, got the names mixed up. I dunno if it’s bad enough to prefer Cheney, that man was evil and capable.

                My brain glitched and I read (and typed) Cheney thinking McCain. I dunno if I could do Cheney over Trump, at least Trump is incompetent. I shudder to think what Cheney would be doing with the modern Republican party.

        The only choices I see are:

        Vote Democrat.

        Vote Repupublican.

        Vote 3rd party and throw your vote away.

        Don’t vote.

        They already ruled out voting democrat. By voting 3rd party or not voting, you throw your vote away.

        That leaves vote Republican. What other choices am I missing?

          That’s how you vote, not what you are. I was talking about what you are.

          I’m a socialist, but I vote democrat because I understand how this works.

          If trump was the best option I’d be hopping the border out of this (even shittier) hell hole
