No. But since one is, and we are powerless to change that, it doesn’t matter. Trump is absolutely, by, and far, the worst candidate, and worst president, in the lifetime of anyone alive today. He’s a pathetic, disgusting, excuse for a human being, and isn’t qualified to run anything, let alone the most powerful country in the world. I don’t care if his opposition is a chimpanzee, or a literal pile of garbage. Either option would be preferable to him.
I mean, in the last few months I carpet bombed an executive team with a well-written email and got a response within two days. If I can get the attention of some money-grubbin, tax dodging, narcissistic, wannabe dictator types to give a shit, I am sure we can collectively manage something.
That’s cool, man. I do write my senators. I was writing them pretty much every other week from 2020-2022. I wrote them extensively when trump needed to be impeached. But I haven’t received anything back other than an auto-response. I shouldn’t be negative about it, nor discourage other people from writing to their representatives. Please do write them, and continue writing them. I’m just personally a little jaded after the last 8 years of political fuckery.
I won’t ever ask you to not be jaded. In fact, I heavily recommend being wholly pissed. Only just that…the basics should continue. We should write those letters and vote. We should also be doing much more.
So you want a weak candidate to run against him?

But we aren’t powerless. Talk to your local Democrats. Heck, email the white house. Making us feel powerless is part of manufactured consent.
Not once in my entire long lifetime has writing to my senators ever done a single thing other than generate an auto response. :(

So in a way I’m right there with you.
Thanks for the reminder. I appreciate it.
