There were exactly two paths the trolley could go down as of November. You can pretend there weren't, but the only option any individual had other than Harris or Trump was to assassinate one or both, and I'm not interested in getting iced by the SS
Unless you think there's some magic number of comments you can make on the internet that will somehow convince enough voters to ditch the two main parties. Of course, you would have to be incredibly naive to believe in that magic number.
Objectively false. More than three paths literally on the ballot. Ignoring the pre-November time frame. Ignoring the possibility of write-ins. You are deliberately leaving things out in your framing - you're lying.
Yes, I could have voted for anyone I wanted, and there were still only two people who could possibly have been elected. Any vote for anyone other than those two literally didn't impact the election.
