Biden is holding everyone hostage here. It’s him or the other worse option. But he is completely responsible for the situation we are in now.

I wouldn’t say completely responsible, but he and the Democratic Party more broadly are certainly taking advantage of the situation.

Taking advantage right up to the point they lose power, and drag the US into an incredibly dark period.

Blaming Biden for the GOP being fascists seems odd to me.

He is responsible for intentionally hiding his true mental state from the public. Running such a close race with Trump should be a clear sign of how unpopular he is as a candidate. At this point, Democrats are dangerously close to losing this election replacing him or not. That is on him.

Biden is not responsible people do not want to vote for him. Voters are responsible for not voting for a person they do not want to vote for!

Well, such moments in politics show us that rats do not, in fact, jump the ship first.

Still two groups of very shady people pitting a senile man (also a pro-Soviet politician in his younger years and probably a crook, but let’s forget this) against a mentally impaired man (who could get a few life sentences were he not that important) look disgusting.

Democrats keep doing it to themselves: they keep on giving POTUS45 platform. Elections should be about what you are, not the other guy, but we’re past that now, aren’t we?

in a two party system like this it’s almost never like that. the choice is between two right wing parties, it’s just that one is fascist and one liberal so if you’re left wing you’re kinda stuck with voting “not fascist”.

two party system aside, in present environment encouraging people to read opponents program vs your own is a wrong move. In ideal world people should be informed about all platforms, but this is not how US works

They have. That’s why they’re voting for him and urging others not to vote for Biden.
