I'm amazed that people are offended when someone they dislike chooses to vote against Trump. I understand the concerns about a "uni party", the military industrial complex, Israel, etc., but can we please agree that Trump needs to stay out of the White House?

Think of it as a Venn diagram. It's OK to agree that Trump is bad.

These Republicans are not known for caring about Democracy.

I'm sure that some (many?) Republican politicians do not seek democracy.

And we don't care about them. But who gives a shit? They could dissuade centrist/Republicans from voting for Trump and literally tip the election in Harris' favor...
