Sorry this is kinda political. Is there an asklemmypolitics group this would be better for? I’m hoping not to get into the libs vs progressives political debate we see everywhere on here… Just want to know what people are actually looking for.

    He’s already got my vote. He’s by zero means perfect, but I live in a swing state and cannot throw out “meh it’s terrible, but good enough considering” because it’s not perfect.

    Here’s some things he could do to make “meh, it’s terrible but” into just “good”:

    • Put any kind of pressure on Israel.
    • Expand the Supreme Court.
    • Executive order giving the NLRB Sectorial Bargaining at the Federal Level.
    • Force the FCC to regulate data collection.
    • Go back in time and allow the railroad workers to strike and threaten nationalization if the hedge funds that own the railroads don’t play ball.

      I hate him, but him losing is an existential threat to many people I care about (many who are already suffering under republican state legislatures). It will do nothing for Gaza either.

      I am bitter that this is the state of things.
