      I don’t even know what a tankie is. However I will say that we didn’t have a good candidate in 2025. I’m 42 and the last person who was running for president that I thought would have been a good president was Al Gore. I was too young to vote.

      No one is saying that Harris (or Biden) was as bad as trump. But it’s like being given the option of a barf flavored jelly bean, and an actual literal pile of dog shit. Sure, picking the jelly bean is the clear better option, but it’s not “good”.

      Basically, I don’t see either party as having the public’s best heart in mind. The democrats are working for the democrats. The republicans are working for the corporations. But nobody is working for the actual American public.

      Would Harris’s presidency be going better for us than trumps? Absolutely. Was she the one who should have won? Yes.

      But I still feel her agenda would be mostly centered on how she’ll play her moves to win in 2028. Rather than what the American public wants. I will say though, that I don’t see her fucking with medicaid or snap. I mean, we’ll never officially know…but I can’t see that being her agenda.

      Basically trumps plan is to fuck everybody over.

      Harris’s plan probably would have been to make moves to benefit Harris. And if that means doing something for the American public to show them why they voted for you, it would be less about the action, and more about the good PR they can use in 2028.

      So yeah. Both are bad, but I’d only call one of them a pedophilic fascist.
