      I haven’t seen that energy.

      I hear rational thought on the civil rights side and zealotry at the expense of others on the conservative side.

      I don’t understand the indecision of your stated position.

      If you’re a centrust, how could you possibly choose the conservatives over the equal liberty party?

      I don’t understand how anyone on the fence could even consider voting red at this point in time. Republicans have absolutely no policy goals in mind other than “we got to secure our border” and “we need to drill more”. Both of which they have already proven by their actions to be just talking points. Everything else that I’ve seen the Republicans try to push is based on hate and control of the people.

      So help me out here, what is it about the right side of things that you might think would be better than the left that’s keeping you on the fence?

      You’re assuming Trump could win. He won’t. He had his chance. He could have had a second consecutive term, and he didn’t. Why? Because of the “low energy” votes.

        People were motivated against him. People have short memories and he very much could win again.

          He could win again, but it absolutely can be prevented if we act.

          Reversing the harm he’s caused, and his predecessors who laid the groundwork for his presidency caused… I’m hopeful we can do, but it won’t be easy.
