    The picture carries more weight than you let on.

    I give way less fucks about a picture than I do about both party’s voting records and criminal conviction histories. Oh hey, look at those two dudes laughing. One gave me affordable healthcare when I was younger and the other one tried to illegally overturn the votes of 80 million people. THEY MUST BE THE SAME!!!

    This actually disproves the myths about his character entirely

    Because he’s being cordial with someone at a funeral? My man, how old are you?

    But your perception of their difference is the outcome of brainwashing.

    Says the guy that uses a single picture as evidence instead of voting history.

    Our responsibility as a population in a so-called “representative democracy” is to select the best candidates.

    That’s exactly what I did. I acknowledged that only 2 candidates had a chance of winning and picked the best one based on their character, their voting history, and their party’s voting history.

    Only a fool would vote for a 3rd party candidate in a presidential election. They CANNOT win, because their parties haven’t done the necessary work to get their candidates elected at local/state levels across the nation to build a coalition capable of winning a presidential election.

    This isn’t rocket science.

      Did you read the part where I said I don’t give a fuck what you think about the picture? I do not respect your opinion at all. I did not make the claims you’re accusing me of making, that it FOLLOWS that they’re “the same” because they’re laughing together in the picture. Don’t bother me with your bullshit misrepresentation of my own words.
