            Whoever the 3rd party was ideologically closest to, you were voting for the OTHER frontrunner.

            As the green party is CLOSEST to the Democratic party, you effectively voted Republican by taking a left leaning vote off the table.

              joe biden doesn’t lean left, and neither does his super-cop vp.

                  they are implying that people who lean left would vote for Biden/harris but that’s not true. only right wingers want cops and slavestate presidents

                  Obviously compared to trump he is further left

                  are you sure? biden wrote the crime bill and the patriot act and voted to fund every war he could. trump signed the first step act and didn’t start any new wars and he even doubled my unemployment payments. joe promised me 2k and gave me 1200.

                  and to think that either of them are even trying to be leftist is laughable.

                  neither is anywhere near good enough to vote for.
