The person who came closest to being elected as a third party candidate was a racist former VP running on a platform of supporting slavery no matter what SCOTUS said.
That one was John C. Breckinridge, he got 72 out of 303 EC votes. The winner that year was Lincoln, with 180 EC votes. I am stretching the truth because he wasn’t really third party, it was a split party.
Considering that Lincoln was the first Republican president and at that time the Republican party was just a few years old, it could be argued that a third party actually won the 1860 election.
The Republican party sure has changed a lot since then.
And the person you want me to vote for has sat on his ass for the last four years watching the cost of groceries double and triple, gasoling costs pass the $3 mark permanently even in the poorest parts of the country, housing costs nearly doubled, and written blank checks for other countries’ wars, even if said country was openly committing genocide.
Oh, and what did he do when Roe was repealed? He used it to fundraise. That’s it.
Your candidate is a fascist, and does not care about your wage slavery.
Yeah, the alternative is worse on every point. I thought you were going to reply talking about advocating for third parties down ballot which can actually change something but nope, back to the amnesiac take of telling people to give the presidential seat to the 30%+ who vote straight republican
You just sat through a Democratic presidency, with congressional control, that impoverished you in every way, including the right to your own bodily autonomy.
Instead of making sure you eat, they wrote blank checks for other countries’ wars.
It’s honestly impressive how little you care about your own welfare. You’re right. It’s a moral imperative that I vote for your fascist and not the other guys’ fascist.

I’ve tried to figure out to whom you’re referring, but I can’t find it. Who are you talking about?

It’s so sad that Bidens main argument was yea I don’t actually get anything done but Trump is worse. Lmao at this point why reward the bare minimum?
When you gonna run?
As soon as I become a billionaire or find a very generous donor that doesn’t mind me taxing them to millionaire status when I get in lmao.

I’m one of those weird people who doesn’t want to see a dictatorship where queer people are marched into concentration camps, but you do you.
