“What’s happening in Gaza is not genocide. We reject that,” Biden said at a Jewish American Heritage Month event at the White House.

      Nope, our election system doesn’t support it and actually has a spoiler effect because you end up tacitly supporting the other side by not voting for one of the two strongest parties.

        Better situation than India 😩. One side we have a leftist younger leader who got character assassinated. And the other side is a dictator that follows an ideology similar to nazism. And people got so brainwashed in the last 10 hears of his rule that it won’t be shocking if India transforms into a one party rule like CCP.

      In “safe” states like California, where Trump will never win, we can vote third party as a protest vote without worrying that we’ll help Trump get elected.

      In states with a very thin margin (“swing” states), fewer votes for Biden could very well mean Trump winning that state.
