    “It could be worse” isn’t particularly persuasive. But it’s looking like that’s what we’ll have. Again.

      It can always be worse imo, but the fact is that it is rarely this bad. The two frontrunners are >70yo, which means there’s a very real health concern. Add to that Trump, who has demonstrated himself to be a very real threat to the country by not acting to stop the Jan 6 violence.

      It can and should be way better, we’re just stuck because our voting system sucks and rhetoric seems to be having way more impact than before.
