 Lol. I love how the economy was great and things were relatively stable in the lives of everyday Americans but these lunatics paint a picture of this authoritarian, dystopic world under Trump that literally did not exist outside Twitter. 
 For me, it is a matter of risk. One involves a higher level of risk for the majority. Egoistic leadership does not serve the community. 
 Depends what you're taking about when you're referring to risk. 

And that's actually completely false. Besides the fact that ego does not exist in an emotional vacuum, it's fed, at least in part, by praise. Egotistical leadership feeds off the praise of those it's leading and in the case of Trump, he's at least equal parts ego and equal parts "love for his country." If you actually listen to the man talk for a few minutes you'll see he cares deeply for the US.

The risk of electing Kamala is that she will continue to prove that she's a puppet of the current political elite machine. Look into her and you'll realize that she's an absolutely terrible candidate with an awful track record. 

That being said, I'm Canadian so I really have no dog in this fight. 

Also, politics is corrupt and stupid anyways, defund all of it with Bitcoin. 
 You’re assuming that I didn’t listen or watch him. Also my analysis is over facts not emotions. 
 I'm not assuming you didn't, but most don't.  
 Is this where I'm supposed to scream at you about having the wrong facts? 🤣🤣

It really doesn't matter who wins as neither of them will move the needle on what really matters and that's fixing the money. You can't stop corrupt bankers and politicians from stealing the wealth of the world when you use the money they give us. 

My vote is for Bitcoin this election.  
 I think the most dangerous thing about Trump is how many people are evangelising him as some messiah. They will be easily radicalised to do crazy things under this illusion - much like the leftists have been doing up until this point.

There is no good choice here, and I think that is the entire point of this shitshow. 
 That's a fair assessment. 

To be clear,  I couldn't care less. I know he's no messiah and I know he's not going to save the country. 

I would sooner defund all of it through Bitcoin.
