I know it's hard, but one can hold two thoughts in their head at a time. Maybe take off the MAGA hat and try it again.
I would vote for a Republican only if their opponent were as corrupt, crazy, nasty and wrongheaded as President Trump. Since Trump is all those things, it makes it easy to both vote for my political interest, and against him at the same time.
I voted against Hillary in 2016. Now I'll vote for Trump in 2020. I could write an essay as to why. Primarily, the current configuration of the Democratic Platform scares the life out of me. I'm not sure the Democrats can agree on what they want and when they march out candidates like Joe Biden/Harris, it tells me they have no idea what they are doing.
Also, to run an entire election campaign based upon 1) Orange Man Bad and 2) Racism, isn't enough to float my boat. Tells me the Democratic Party is an absolute mess right now.
You couple this with unruly "craziness" and I find it difficult how anybody can vote for Biden and the Democrats. But hey, that's just me

I feel as if many people are voting for Biden just because they hate trump!
As a sane and decent person, I just do not see how anyone can support the democrats today! They support defunding the police for gods sake, lets not see how that would look!

So, what's behind your thinking during this wild election? Are you voting for someone (or something) or are you voting against someone (or something)?
I voted Sanders in the primary, he was my policy candidate. Had to vote Biden in the general as at least no more judgeships will be in R hands for a while if he wins

Not to mention they plan on allowing 11MM illegals into the country! Yo kids, if you think jobs are hard to find now? Wait till the cash hungry illegals enter the job market who think they hit the jackpot for that $15 an hour job! Can you say slim pickens in the employment market?

So you see jobs as a fixed commodity? More people don't mean more jobs?
I have not met a single person who is voting for Biden ...... and I associate with a lot of liberals including family members. Without exception they are voting against Trump. Quite a few agree that Biden is just not up to the job in terms of his mental acuity, they believe he did assault Tara Reade and did use his influence to help Hunter and his siblings.
They hardly ever cite Covid because they acknowledge that no matter who was president, the probability is that Covid would have been a major problem. It is just that they really detest Trump.
A couple have told me that they would vote for a potted plant if it resulted in Trump being removed from office.
