I still believe all of those things are true (in their pure form, when non-corrupted) except for “the system will save us”.

So the pardoning of family members and cronies that was done by earlier presidents didn’t set the precedent??? How about the pardon of Nixon? Not to mention we are in uncharted waters with a trump administration - he’s promised to go after people who he doesn’t like. Stop this.

Sorry, but media and “scared” don’t go together. I guess it is no longer a noble or ethical profession. They should find other jobs if they are not going to do theirs.

I agree. But truth doesn’t matter anymore? Ethics? Morality?

It’s crazy-making. Does anyone (media, cough, cough) engage in critical thinking anymore?

I mean, this is obvious to everyone - why does it seem that the media is more ridiculous than ever??

Right, because Trump would never have thought of abusing his power otherwise🙄 This narrative is ridiculous. Are journalists taking their job seriously anymore??

No. This is NOT on Biden. This is NOT a “both sides” issue. Trump is planning on persecuting anyone he doesn’t like. Biden never did that.

I’d really like to know what those people feel they have accomplished?

It’s obnoxious. And everyone is POSITIVE they know what happened with the election and how we must proceed.

The evil on the right is extreme. Democrats have done so much good by ensuring equal rights under the law, abortion rights, and environmental protection - there is no comparison. I am a pacifist/globalist, and I know I will never see the world I would like to see. Every little bit of good helps.

Sorry if that sounded like I was lashing out - my intention was to commiserate.

No one is perfect. Nothing is perfect. Doesn’t it make sense to choose the option which most closely aligns with your values?

I take your point. And I maintain that Trump is a million times worse for this country and the world (and the earth).

Yes we need to have honest and respectful conversations with people, and to connect with people outside our normal sphere.

Yes it is. So why not vote for the person who will be better on that issue? And don’t they/you care about all of the other people being horribly affected by a trump presidency??
comment in response to
post
Yeah because they are one issue voters. Do they care about abortion rights? Education? Health Care? Medicare? Social Security? The rights of marginalized groups? Etc.,,, and how about the fact that the other guy is a convicted felon?? Sorry, but I have no patience for this stuff.

Or maybe people could try to see the whole picture. If your one issue is Gaza, you could maybe make sure to vote for the person who will do the least harm. Of course there are tons of other issues one could care about as well, affecting millions of people in US and the rest of the world…….

They didn’t backstab him. He had a choice. This was a really difficult situation as they had to do things quickly. A new primary might have been best but there was a need for unity and speed. One could argue that he should not have run for reelection.

Yes. I was going to only quit CNN (was practically there before election) but was going to return to MSNBC. Not anymore.

I’m thankful that you are bringing this all up! We need introspection, we need unity.

This is true! If you actually listen to people on the “other side” or who just aren’t as far left, you will learn that they feel that they are being talked down to and judged by the “liberal elite”. The idea is to share info, not to lecture or “virtue signal”. We ignore these voices at our peril.
