      What false dichotomy? Dichotomy might be the best definition for our 2 party system. We indeed have an actual dichotomy.

      Yes, I’d rather have a different choice. There certainly isn’t a dichotomy of ideas. But when it comes down to it, Biden and Trump will be the only legitimate choices on the ballot.

        The false dichotomy is that all mentions of either of them boil down to either “Trump bad so Biden good” or “Biden bad so Trump good”.

        It’s lazy, it’s disingenuous and it destroys all hope of keeping elected officials from your own “team” accountable for their words, actions and lack of both.

            Your automatic dismissal of any criticism of him as bad faith attempts to “make him look bad” sure as hell is.

            You even said verbatim that it all IS a dichotomy just now!

              The ELECTION is a dichotomy. But you know what, you don’t want to debate in good faith. Enjoy 4 more years of Trump, because that is what is coming with these attitudes.

                Thanks for confirming all of what you just called a strawman.

                Good luck with your Dear Leader. I sincerely hope he’s going to start listening to the people before it’s too late so that a Trump white house isn’t inflicted on the world again.
