    We can acknowledge that Trump is a fascist and people need to vote for Biden or there is a real possibility of not being able to vote again.

    We can also acknowledge that as a result Democrats don’t have to try very hard and can present a boring “mostly status quo” candidate under the banner of “what are you going to do, let a fascist win?”

    Yes, it sucks. We can acknowledge it sucks. Personally I think the best way to correct course is if the Republicans lose hard to send the message that they need to be putting forward reasonable candidates to stand a chance, at which point it would be reasonable to not vote for disappointing Democratic candidates.

    We can still acknowledge that what is being offered isn’t stellar.
