minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoThat isn’t guaranteed. And the voters don’t really have any control over that.
minus-squareKnock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoTrue. They could replace Biden with Clinton. The voters lack of control is the main reason we are in this mess. Only 14m people chose Biden in the primary.
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoI agree with you there. I’m also (obviously) against the genocide. I just think Trump would be worse in every way, including regarding the genocide (and other potential future genocides and/or wars).
minus-squareKnock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-22 months agoNot Trump should be President. That doesn’t necessarily mean Biden.
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down2·2 months agoMaybe it’d appeal more to you. But they’ve likely done their research and figured that they’d lose more votes from swapping him out. They could be right or wrong, but they’re not making these decisions blindly.
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down3·2 months agoNo, because the voters still have a choice to vote. There’s no guarantee that swapping candidates would get them more net votes. There’s a guarantee that Democrat or flip voters who abstain from voting for Biden are helping Trump win.
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoBecause they’re okay with convicted felon Donald Trump becoming the president of the USA again, lol
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·2 months agoIf their vote matters (based on previous elections), then yes. They’re either okay with it, or they’re ignorant.
minus-squareCptInsane0@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoNot voting for Trump helps Biden win then.
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·2 months agoYes, if voters who vote Republican or flip between Republican/Democrat decide not to vote for Trump, then that would help Biden win.
minus-squareCptInsane0@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoOk, but independents who don’t vote for either are not helping either.
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoOr are they helping both? Actually, I’ve read that voter apathy tends to help Right-wing parties. If that’s true and accurate, then independents who don’t vote for either would be helping Trump.
