    Sure but this “sport” has more than 2 teams, and also 100million more participants then who you are focusing on. I’d say that participating in the minor distraction of the two teams competing to see who can get the most money from lobbyists is probably the worst thing you can do.

        In first past the post there will only be two teams, but fortunately you do not need to vote for the Capitalists. You should not vote for the Capitalist, and if you do vote for them you are a bad person.

              Vote for any of the options on the ballot. You won’t find anyone but R and D though. But pick one - and stop the petulant whining. Change comes through voting - not by bitching.

      He needs to be primaried, tradition or not.

      He’s done an assortment of good things. He’s also older and sympathetic to economic “centrism.”

      I’d like to see a credible democratic challenger primary him and force him to maintain a more left leaning posture. If done correctly, he’d re-message and it would help him in the general.

      We need to pull people out of their culture war mindset and get them voting for their own best interests. Fanciful notions of “the wrong gender” in a restroom aren’t going to matter as much as domestic economic health, global climate change, or a changing geo-economic outlook. We need people voting real-worl issues and someone who can message to that.

      I’ll add: everyone deserves certain fundamental rights. So when I say culture war, I’m referring to DeSantis types. I have no quarrel with treating LGBTQ+ with respect and decency.
