I understand the attraction of voting for someone you think is in the best interest of your family, but there has to be some point at which any compassionate person can't justify the trade off and you do indeed become a bad person.
Under Trump over 230,000 Americans have died from Covid 19.
I'd say the world has burned for them and many of those would have been prevented by better leadership.
Trump is openly pushing away from the rule of law and democratic government; attempting voter suppression, admitting he may not leave if he loses the election and attempting to become a dictator right in front of our faces.
Would you trade democracy if it benefits the economic outlook for your family?
Where do you draw the line, if anywhere?
