I'll be honest. The Iran deal withdrawal had the potential to be far worse and I hope it resolves quickly but that won't happen if trump is president. And the climate agreement hasn't been the call to action as much as it's a vain agreement to pretend like something is being done when it's not. Trump's actual deregulation is the problem. Being in the climate agreement is non binding and not really useful either way. 4 more years of trump aren't bad enough to be worse than Biden in my opinion but 8 years of trump might very well be. That's my honest take on it. But Bernie Sanders is not out yet and he is the best option. It's not even time to think about whether you will support Biden if he's the nominee. That's a defeatist attitude. The time is to mobilize and drag the youth to vote for the best option, not the lesser of two evils. This fight is far from over and I still believe we can beat the establishment. |
I believe I read something yesterday that the youth vote was down in 10/14 states on Super Tuesday and is down, overall, compared to 2016. Bernie won a lot more of the youths % wise but apparently less of them are voting than in 2016 in the Democratic primaries. That is the opposite of what Bernie needs to win the general election. Biden could win a general election without the rough because middle aged and older people actually like him. Bernie needs the youth because the older one gets the more they think him radical.
I say this openly as a conservative, by the way. I have no idea who will win. I'd prefer any social conservative other than Trump, but he's what we've got and I have to vote to support baby rights.
If I can't have Trump I'd rather have Biden than Sanders, at least policy wise (but I'm very concerned for Biden's mental wellbeing as I am for Trump's). Sanders seems to be the most mentally stable of the three, but his policies are way too far for me. I disagree with almost his entire platform. Honestly if Trump didn't appoint pro life judges I'd probably vote third party or not at all based on this selection because that issue is by far the most important to me. Someone else's life being an inconvenience isn't an excuse to murder them.
