PS.

I would for vote Kamala. I would vote for a cactus with sunglasses if it had the Democratic nomination. You would do yourself well to consider anything that is weaking the resolve of the anti-trump sentiment straight poison to your brain. We have only one job this novemeber and that is to stop trump. The Supreme Court has given him the status of king. Quit acting like your vote is sacred and start realizing your vote is your final cry before your rights are forfeited.

When you have a 2 party system no other candidate will ever do anything except cannibalize votes from the party they overlap the most with.

Green party takes votes from Democrats and libertarians take votes from Republicans.

Read the federalist papers. The founding fathers saw this reality coming. First past the post voting with 2 dominant parties means 3rd party voting or apathy is a vote for your opponent

Green party takes votes from Democrats

this is a myth. votes Don't belong to the Democrats. they belong to the voters. it's up to candidates to earn votes.

this entire comment is obfuscation. I asked a specific question in response to a specific claim.

3rd party voting or apathy is a vote for your opponent

no, it's a vote for the so-called third party or no vote at all.
