    So many of the things people are saying Trump will do is already happening under the Biden administration.

    …because of officials elected by Trump.

    There’s a crapload of policies others already pointed out that make Biden extremely different from Trump, if you still think they’re “very similar” you’re just being willfully ignorant at this point.

      Biden is definitely more palatable, but at the end of the day, either way we will have a president happy to fund genocide. Either way we waste billions on military, have a huge incarcerated prison population, deport immigrants, could go on. Biden was vice president during Obama’s drone strikes.

        That’s undeniably true. But to say they’re very similar is a huge exaggeration.

        It’s the difference between drinking expired milk with or without cyanide inside. You’re still getting food poisoning but one is most definitely worse.

          It’s more like drinking expired milk and both have different quantities of cyanide, and both milks are funding genocide. You’re dying either way. Strategic action could shift things, blindly voting for Democrats no matter what they do gives them no incentive to change their behavior.
