The only nightmare I see is Trump. Biden having to step to his Vice after the election is not the worst scenario

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago

Obviously trump is unacceptable and I am voting for Biden again but...I really fear another Feinstein situation. He's doing ok now but at his age shit can go downhill so fucking fast.

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago

And so can Trump. Toby Keith was younger than both. I'd rather see a Weekend At Bernie'd Biden bow to Harris after the election than have the incumbent be ditched during a raving populist parade.

Yep. Very clearly saying trump would be even worse. But in a perfect world we would have someone we don't have to worry about with that at all. Oh well.

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

That is not necessarily true. In a perfect world, all would have ample time, energy, and resources to participate in their governance without it becoming a burden. Anything else will eventually return to some form of fuedalism as the governed populace loses their opportunity to participate.

Feinstein > Trump

Literal dementia riddled psychopath > Trump

Even zombie Joe Biden a la "Kingdom" > Trump
