Considering Trump has indicated he aims to abolish elections there is no upside at all in voting anything but Democrats.

I’m not afraid of Trump. He’s an idiot and has no chance of winning. Even if people vote 3rd party.

And yet, here I am with it anyway. Also, I’m not afraid of him whether he wins or loses.

He has a very real chance of winning. He has laid groundwork, like the Supreme Court. He has people around him that are working towards their shared goal - it’s by no means a one man operation. And they have prepared. So there’s a real chance this might be the last time you get to vote.

I don’t believe he has that much power. I actually have zero fear of Trump. Not mocking that you do, I am simply saying that I do not.
