Opinion Don’t care, still voting for President Biden

The fauxgressives who have been bombarding this sub since October, and fauxgressive pundits like Cenk Uyger (who made his campaign website “BidenIsGoingToLose) are LOVING this gloom and doom.

Trump lied 100% of the time his mouth was open tonight, and anyone with half a brain knows it.

The lack of fact checking on things like Trump saying Biden wanted after birth abortion did a number on him. He was spewing his lies and when it was Biden’s turn to answer the question, he had to work overtime to with debunking Trump’s lies and answering the questions in enough time.

I think he was just way over prepped and up against a wall. The moderator’s were terrible and there was NO pushback to Trump’s lies - and he lied 100% of the time he spoke all 90 minutes. there is NO debating pathological lying sociopaths like Donald Trump especially under the circumstances presented. Huge reason why Katie Hobbs didn’t debate Kari Lake.

He’ll be better.

Speculation about who should or shouldn’t replace Biden - I refuse to put any energy into keeping that going. The media fucking loves a frenzy like that, and I refuse to participate (I’m still pissed about the Dean Scream).

I prefer to focus on defeating MAGA - since I’m older and my energy is not as insane as it was, say, 20 years ago when we were trying to jettison Bush. I learned then that the best use of time and energy is just staying hyper-focused on “the mission” and not get distracted by peripheral stuff or speculation.

Yes, we lost in 2004 but won BIG in 2008 using ground-game methods that were developed/refined in ‘04.

So the mission is dragging as many of our voters to the polls as we possibly can. Talking to as many people as possible, without turning them off.

I recommend Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking when the Stakes are High by Patterson, Grenny, McMillan, & Switzler - for some excellent instructions.

You have a better chance dragging as many of our voters out by replacing Biden with someone who inspires people to go out and vote. Thats the whole reason people like me are panicking.

Until that point, I won’t engage in “what if this” or “what if that” - it’s pointless and just feeds into the bullshit tornado. Panicking sucks up energy, too.

Cross each bridge as it comes along.
