And if you can't see any difference between Biden and Trump then I am glad you are throwing your vote away.
I consider my right to vote the privilege to do the best I can for my country/stat/county. I am not going to waste it. Here where I live only Republicans get elected to local positions. I could waste my vote for a Democrat or I can actually have some influence on who wins by voting for the best choice among the Republicans. I chose to make my vote actually mean something.
I was asked what the difference between DJT and Biden was by one of my left-leaning friends the other day. He was trying to be a smartass about it pertaining to their histories of being accused of creeper-ish behavior.
I told him the difference was the Supreme Court, and that it was probably the most impactful thing a president does regarding outcomes in out day-to-day lives. If people can't see that, then they're not paying attention.
