I'd vote for Cornel if I were in a safely blue state. But I'm not going to feel comfortable splitting the vote against most of these republican candidates coming out of the woodwork. Trump, DeSantis, and Pence are all too dangerous for me to consider a third party vote.

@ViciDraco You are a reasonable man.

@Fukfacewillie I try to stay practical. Ideally I'd vote Green or somewhere to the left of that. But Trump and DeSantis are dangerous fascists, and Pence is a slave to his religious bigotries. I would much rather vote for something than against something, but the things I want are long term endeavors and won't come to pass if the far right regresses our culture a hundred years.

I would not like Christie, or any republican president due to Supreme Court concerns, but a man like Christie would not terrify me quite so much. He's corrupt as hell but he doesn't give me fascist or Christian nationalist vibes in the same way the other primary candidates do.
@ViciDraco It's amazing how much better Christie comes off compared to the fascist psychopaths that now dominate right-wing politics. He's pro-democracy, doesn't do the "anti-woke" bullshit, and generally lives in reality. I know he won't get the nomination, but I'd feel waaaay better if the 2024 election was Christie vs Biden.

@BohemianBabe absolutely. As i said, I wouldn't want him to win, but I wouldn't feel terrified to have him as a president. He's the kind of republican you can have differences of opinion with and not feel like he's going to start a civil war if he doesn't get his way.
