[–] core@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) If you don’t vote for biden you are helping trump by making it easier for him to win. only a vote for trump helps trump permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] PotatoKat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) I saw someone else post this If 10 people vote and 5 go to Trump and 5 go to biden then you've avoided a Trump victory and allow for another round. If in that 2nd round a person who voted for biden decides to go 3rd party now trump has 5 votes biden has 4 and the 3rd party has 1. The person who switched to 3rd party helped Trump win along with the 5 who voted Trump. If you don't understand that then you're being purposefully obtuse. Or you could explain how that 3rd party vote didn't help Trump without responding with a thought terminating cliche permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] core@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 point 2 years ago the only votes that help Trump are votes for trump. a vote for Jill Stein or cornel west is a vote against Trump. a vote against Trump doesn't help Trump. your scenario presumes I would vote for Biden. I did that once in 2008. I haven't voted for a Democrat for president since and I won't be voting for Biden this year either. permalink fedilink source parent
