Anyone arguing that there's no difference between Trump and Biden is a Russian troll

or a Republican one or is being heavily influenced by a troll. The "no difference" argument is an example of intellectual dishonesty. No data supports the argument that Biden would be handling this current crisis in the same way that Trump is. No data supports the argument that Biden would be the same as Trump. This is all an underground campaign to dampen support for Biden because that's the only way that Trump can win. The folks that make this argument are either paid trolls or useful idiots.

And just as a thought experiment, even if Biden, beat for beat, repeated every Trump statement and action, you really think that the Dems in congress and in the state houses would go along with him like the Republicans are with Trump? Adam Schiff, Ted Lieu, Schumer, Katie Porter, AOC, et al. ? They would all fall in line with Biden while the bodies pile up? Are you serious?

No one has believed these people to be anything other than shit-stirrers since the last time the name 'Nader' was in the headlines.

Anyone in possession of a functioning brain and a genuine commitment to progressive ideals knows that both parties are not 'the same'.

Anyone who wants to see our country improve, rather than continue down this festering MAGA rabbit hole understands that the Democratic Party, as flawed as it is, is the way to vote.

She doesn’t vote but all her 4 kids are repukes and mf 45 supporters ( their father who she divorced many years ago is really in the cult) and she still says all parties are the same bull crap and stills thinks there is no difference between a Biden and MF45. My mother in law is a liberal and said it’s a waste of time talking to her about politics.

to corrupt "Dem-Repubs" is, of course, them. Because we're really just Republicans with conceits of being better, while they're so honest and highly principled.
