    I’ll vote for a chimpanzee if it’s not Trump.

    The average American won’t though. You have to actually appeal to them or they’ll stay home.

      I don’t disagree at all. I’m all for replacing Biden if we can and shaking up DNC leadership if we can and getting rid of these milquetoast moderates wherever we can. The Democratic Establishment is their own worst enemy, either through maliciousness or incompetence (probably a mix of both across the spectrum of party leadership).

      I’m just planning to vote for NOT Trump and encourage everyone else to do the same.

        I believe I need to leverage my vote to stop Biden from being the nominee because he can’t win the general, and by pledging to vote blue-no-matter-who you are making it more likely Trump wins because he’ll have no trouble beating Biden.

        They’re listening to voters freak out about Biden and they’re responding. It’s not too late.
