all of the aspects? none.

most of them was Yang, although he also fails at #1. its just the despite his incompatibility with congress i liked his platform more. realistic healthcare plan, full on automation, realistic on climate change, bad at world stage politics, super informed and concise on education, young + azn.

of those left, none even resemble what i want out of a candidate. and all will get my vote rather than trump anyways. since even before yang left the race "my pick" = "who can beat trump", not "who supports what i like".


well, who covers most of them the best then? who of the remaining candidates is the most qualified concerning your main priorities (if you had to pick a poison based on substance)? and who has the best chance at beating trump in your opinion (what will your poison be based on 'electability')?

that said, it's indeed a shame that yang is out already, was an interesting platform imo.

None check anywhere enough boxes for me to endorse one without a gun to my head. If I had to choose one in those circumstances I guess Biden the token moderate. And similar answer to the second part. I think trump wins regardless but probably Biden. I'd have said Bloomberg 3 days ago, but his campaign is so bad.

It's basically the same thing, right? It's a way to protect yourself from some truly abhorrent policies. If candidate A had a policy of raping Santara every night and candidate B has the best chance to be candidate A, you should vote for candidate B. Sure, candidate C promises to give you a massage whenever you want, but no one likes candidate C.

There's a reason pragmatists run the world. Ideology is a great way to get nothing done

You could have just said "I think there's nothing wrong with voting for evil." It's okay, I understand.

Pragmatists like Boris Johnson? King Salman? Che?

Definitely not! Like, if you HAD to choose between Barrack HUSSEIN Obama and Adolf Hitler, who would you choose?
