And I’m being serious. I feel like there might be an argument there, I just don’t understand it. Can someone please “steelman” that argument for me?

    So, instead of selecting the better of two bad options (according to you), you chose the worse of two bad options. And that’s supposed to make some sort of point?

    Do I shoot myself in the foot or the head? The head, that’ll show em!

    X to doubt.

      I voted for the Unity party largely to make this point. I live in Colorado. That’s “shooting myself in the head”?

      I heard someone say “Well what if so many voters vote third party that they lose the state?” If the Dems lose Colorado…if Colorado is even close…do you really think they have a path to 270?

      I respect the right of people in swing states to vote their conscience as well, but that’s obviously a different consideration. But the vitriol a lot of Dems have without even asking where someone lives is just… unhelpful.
