If exit polls are to be believed, a quarter of all voters vote for the lesser of two evils, for the least worse candidate or party, for the candidate or party they want to lose the least. I call these voters anti-voters. They never vote for a candidate or party, just against one they disliked the most or see as the most evil although if given a viable third choice, they’d take that viable third choice in a heartbeat. Biden is president because of the anti-vote who voted against Trump, but not necessarily for Biden as he was the lesser of two evils.

I agree with Greger, in the era of Trump the democratic party is the lesser of two evils. Once Trump is gone, it’ll be time to recalibrate. Like Greger, I too don’t worry over things I can’t control or help. As for American democracy, looking at the polls, different articles, folks on one side think voting Republican is the only way to save it, folks on the other side think one must vote democratic to save it. Those in the middle, swing voting independents, they don’t think about it. Just their thinning to flat wallets. They think about meeting theirs and their family’s need today and if they may be able to meet them tomorrow. What may or may not happen in the future is irrelevant to them. It’s today they’re trying to make it through. They’ll worry about tomorrow when it comes. Today takes precedence.

It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.
