MODERATORS
Graciousness? I don't think that's the right word...you don't vote for someone because you're being gracious, you vote for someone because you think they'll deliver what you want - or in this case perhaps, the closest person who actually stands a hope in hell of getting elected.
Oh no. It's graciousness to vote for the guy you lost to and who went out of his way to break campaign promises on unions, climate change, and immigration. Another term is good loser.
But the point is there's limits. There have to be limits or else you're not a loser in a political contest, you're a blind supporter they never need to actually listen to.
That’s objectively bullshit.
The only other option is trump. Are you trying to get people to vote for trump? If so, why?
Ah yes, Reddit, and a Biden specific sub. The very material of unbiased analysis.
Also. You're responding to something pre-debate. There are very definitely other options now. Run a debate series with select candidates, open a comment period with the state parties, and culminate in an open convention.
