Just the shitty ones. Good men who finds themselves in an abusive or unhealthy marriage benefit from the current laws.

I wish this country could elect a gay male.

Probably a Democrat. But I would be ok if he’s Republican.

Pete is arguably one of the smartest and most capable in the picture.

To be clear, if/when someone like Mayor Pete is the nominee for president, I will take the under on the time it takes for the resident curmudgeons (you know who you are) to post “wish we had more choice of candidates because both of them are terrible”. No reasons why, no alternative choices, no specifics. Just double-hate.

I laughed on my way to funding gender-affirming illegal immigrant surgery. Seriously though, the "I have a dream" speech is 60 years ago. And yet.

Trump and his virus have set this country back at least 50 years.

If you are referring to me....
I would happily vote for Mayor Peter Paul Montgomery Buttigieg in this election over the two "terrible" choices in Kamala Devi Harris and Donald John Trump. I have posted in the past people who I would have preferred over Trump and Harris. Mayor Pete being one of them.

In the past I thought I had/have provided several if not many "reasons why "I feel (know) Trump and Harris are terrible choices.
If not, to appease you, I will list a few for each person right now.
Harris.
1. I am against her plan to hand out money like it's Halloween Candy - and my not getting shit - but will ultimately have my taxes jacked up to help pay for what I feel are her unnecessary handouts - that I feel will be terrible for our country's economy.
2. I feel she has no clue what to do about the Middle East. Heck, Israel basically gave her and Biden a huge fuck you this week and because of it, they killed the person who was one of their biggest enemies/threats.
3. I feel she has no clue what to do about Immigration.
I'll add that despite what Jeeper thinks, she proved what she is terrible during the Baier interview (maybe I should say interrogation?) and yet again showed she can't defend her faults/weaknesses/failures and isn't even good at deflecting.
Most importantly, her campaign has had so many highs and lows but to me, overall it's been pretty bad and I don't think she'll beat Trump because of it. I know people a lot smarter than me who are Dems and are very worried about her chances too.

Trump.
After just probably wasting my time listing a few things about Harris, do I really need to spend time listing things about him? Do you not think/know he is a terrible choice?
I'll do it if you really want me to. Let me know.

"No alternative choices"? Well, at this point there aren't many "alternative choices". Do you want me to list people such as Jill Stein, Cornell West, and Chase Oliver as "alternative choices"? Heck, are those 3 even still running? Well, I listed them. It's a big no thanks for/from me.
The best "alternative choice" for me.... Would probably have to be to choose not to vote for President.

i assume this a shot at me (among others). You're wrong. Id vote for Pete today.

Me too

Crazy! Reading the last few posts on this thread, seems the Dums should have ran Mayor Pete and not Giggles Harris. Well, I guess Giggles Harris is still going to get the votes of the people on here. Because.....
Primarily, she's not Donald Trump.

i wanted Pete on the ticket, and said as much before Walz was announced. i also woulda voted for Pete four years ago

100% enough for me.
We barely escaped the Trump Autocracy the first time.

To give him the keys again will make this Democracy unrecognizable in a few short years.

To me, voting for Trump and choosing not to vote are the same crime.

Amanda Zurawski, one of the 20 women who sued the state of Texas over its deadly abortion ban, stood in front of NYC’s Trump Tower and called out Donald Trump by name for his role in overturning Roe.

tejas woman died today due to miscarriage complications

doctors did nothing

"Whether you like it or not".

No but seriously, why were there twice as many women (and younger than usual) voting early today when I went to the polling place?

What do I win?

Internal Polls are showing a Kamala surge that answers the question of why Trump has been shambling through the last week and already spouting lies about election fraud (not the stuff he does and is doing).
