    No, you’re voting to move in the right direction.

    Voting is like taking the bus, you get on the one going the direction you want. And then, you get on another bus that continues to take you towards your destination.

    You don’t get on a bus going the opposite direction, or refuse to go at all unless there’s a bus going from your front door direct to your destination. That’s just stupidity. That’s what you’re advocating for, and we’re never going to get to a better place if people like you don’t wake up and see that.

      I was on that bus a long time ago and assumed the driver knew which direction he was headed and knows his route. After being on the bus a while I noticed he was headed the wrong direction while also claiming we are almost there. I voiced my concerns he was headed in the wrong direction but was told to sit down and shut up, the driver knows where they are going, besides claiming we are almost there. As they continued to drive the wrong direction taking me further from my destination than I ever thought possible. I knew it was time get off the bus despite all the other passengers kept demanding I listen to the driver, and we are almost there if I just wait a little longer.

        Touch grass.

        Seriously, you’d have to be chronically online listening to Russian propaganda to seriously think the Democrats and Republicans are anywhere near each other.
