      oh, you know what? maybe it’s the option of having my foot crushed or amputated. one isn’t quite as bad but neither is really something i’ll be choosing given any other choice.

            “Trump’s presidency was the same as Biden’s. Trump’s promise of dictatorship is the same as Biden’s status quo.”

            You’ve shown your cards, comrade.

              i didn’t say that. it’s a strawman.

                    Saying “both sides bad” has implied meaning. I’m only expanding on the words you said without changing anything. If you said, “The Earth orbits the Sun.” and I expanded that to explain Kepler’s laws, I’m not contradicting you or putting words in your mouth.

                    If you want to suggest details such as an example where Trump did good and Biden did bad on a particular policy, then please elaborate. Trump said Ukraine needs to surrender. Biden didn’t say Ukraine should surrender so they are both equally bad? Give me an example.
