And if you don't change your vote, how egregious a POS does your party leader need to be before you will stay home in disgust, or hold your knows to make sure they can't lead? Like, is Donald Trump egregious enough?

Well first of all, as I said before, I don't want another Trump Presidency. Even though I am of the more Conservative political leanings, I was ecstatic that Biden won in 2020 as I was tired of all the noise for and against Trump. America as a whole just has a very very unhealthy relationship overall with him and it's not good.

That being said, since I am not a homer, I can often see the other side of the political spectrum and I like to hold my side accountable when need be. I do the same thing in sports. If you can't understand why your side/team is losing, your just a homer and a loser fan.

I never tell anybody to vote for any particular side, that is a personal choice. I don't often agree with some parties policies but I accept them. It's not that I change my vote every time or that other people should changes theirs but more of the importance of having a shift in power from different parties. Let's call it competitive balance.

It's the way politics works, some accept it and some don't. I don't have a vote in the US election but if I did, I would vote Biden. He will probably lose and he will lose for a lot of reasons I have previously discussed. You will then see the knives come full out for Democrats, the party and his legacy will be forever tarnished cause he in essence brought back Trump and all that entails. People will then look back and wonder why the hell did we allow him to run? Why did he run? It won't be pretty and people will need to answer some very tough questions as a result

If he does win, it's becoming clearer by the day that he just doesn't have the juice in him to govern to the degree that is required. If he does need to step down due to health or longevity concerns, it also won't be good. If Harris needs to step in to the Presidency it also won't be a good thing as she is WILDLY unpopular. What do you think happens in 2028? An almost certainty of a Republican President.
