Hey buddy, we all know how broken our political system is… at least this time we can get a little bit excited about one of the options. There have been worse elections.
So Catholics lose tax exempt…
Right?
This is the literal head of their religion getting involved
He’s not actually picking a side:
“One must choose the lesser of two evils. Who is the lesser of two evils? That lady or that gentleman? I don’t know,” Francis said during a press conference on the papal plane, referring to Harris and Trump. “Everyone with a conscience should think on this and do it.”
He’s equating Trump’s anti-immigration policy with Harris’ pro-choice policy.
He’s completely ignoring everything else about Trump.
C’mon, I mean Harris isn’t perfect but the other guy has done a lot, lot, lot worse…
Ignoring the seriousness of Covid? Think how many died needlessly because of that. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/trumps-policy-failures-have-exacted-a-heavy-toll-on-public-health1/
Even ignoring covid, how many died under his health policy (or lack thereof)? Possibly over 25k: https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/hsph-in-the-news/quantifying-health-coverage-losses-under-trump/
Heck, technically he’s not even anti-abortion! https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trumps-abortion-stances-republicans-2024-gop-rcna147222
For anyone who is “pro-life” in terms of all human beings being and staying alive, I should think that backing Harris should be a no-brainer.
I don’t put much stock in the opinion of someone who actively protects and supports child abusers as to what he considers “against life”
Well, given his problem with Harris is that she supports abortion rights, he can just get fucked along with his opinions.
About the only “evil” I see in her is the pussyfooting with Netanyahu. Dude is straight up a war criminal.
She did say Israel will still be fully supported, which isn’t really just pussyfooting with a war criminal…it’s more enabling. I would also add fracking to the “evil” side as well. Don’t get me wrong, it is better than the alternative and the lesser of two evils, but still.
Regarding the fracking issue, what was she supposed to do there? Hillary Clinton said she was going to shut down coal mining and it was a major contributor to losing her the election as a whole. We didn’t need a repeat of that.
