      After this debate the only reason to vote for Biden is to make sure a third party can’t beat Trump.

      Biden is 100% donezo.

        Hey, when was the last time a third party won an election for the presidency in a presidential election? Oh 1860 and one of the major political parties at the time split its voting base among north/south lines and promptly died as a result leading once again to a 2 party system?

          So once every 50 elections one party gets so bad that everyone abandons ship.

          I have a feeling it might be time for that 2%

            My point is that third parties aren’t able to win in our current voting system unless one party literally rips itself in half, in which case the system immediately goes back to a 2 party system when the ripped party inevitably dies off. And that party didn’t dies from people abandoning ship, it died because it ran 2 candidates for presidency

            Third parties literally cannot exist based on the way our government is set up.

          Both parties are intentionally stalling the ballot access of third parties so they wouldn’t be able to participate in the debate.

            Ah. So you have complaints and your answer is a protest vote so that Trump wins. Got it.

            I don’t care to interact with you further.

              Don’t comment if you have no comebacks nor knowledge of corrupt “Democrats” blocking Democratic ballot access

              The person you’re replying to sure is elevating the thread with their “I’m rubber, you’re glue” conversational gambit.

              I can’t tell if they’re young and idealistic (entirely understandable), a brainwashed moron (being a moron isn’t required for brainwashing, but it helps), or a shill. Their “no, you” remark makes me think it’s a kid. If so that fire will serve them well someday, even if it’s currently misplaced.
