I want a person who talks like this and then promises to back it up to be the next president. If there's somebody who winds up being more convincing than him in the next year or so, I'll vote for that person instead. 1315978655

Reposted by @michaeldoh.bsky.socialSam @very-simple.com · 10/09/2026A while back, someone posited that on issues where both candidates are bad, you vote for the person (or party) who *you would rather have the fight with* and on a whole host of issues I would rather fight with Democrats to move them left, because they are, even at the margins, more moveable. 1606
michaeldoh.bsky.social @michaeldoh.bsky.social · 10/09/2026“Keep government out of my hair” (esp w/r/t medical decisions) is a fundamentally American modern trope. It’s not only traditionally conservative (i.e., trust the individual and family, not the gvmt), but it is a civil rights building block on the left (e.g., abortion rights, “my body my choice”). 130
