Who do you want to win and why?

Both sides are evil. The Democrats I think are way more evil, but the Republicans have a very bad candidate.

Already did my protest votes against my preferred party. Once they come back to reality maybe I will vote for candidates in that group again.
I'm not real big into cult membership or a political party based on personality.
First time in over 40 years I've ever voted for the Donkey. The elephants have lost their mind and are busy rooting for those free peanuts. 🎩

It seems to be some kind of pooping reaction to Bush globalism and years of dem white people bashing.

Trump tariffs could do the same damage here. They were tried under Hoover in 1930 i think. It worsened the depression.

What I find amusing is the repeated claim that the other countries pay those tariffs. Ultimately the consumer pays for them, and I have to agree, they amount to a tax by any other name.

I'll just say I'm not voting for the cheeto puff man. He's the absolute worst Republican to ever run.

I think that some in certain parties are still living in the pre 70's. They think just because someone is associated with a party they are due the vote of someone that is a party member. I've always believed in voting in the best person for the job. Generally those type are willing to work across the aisle to get things done to the betterment of society in general. It's just been in the last few decades that has seemed to change and both parties have become rather radicalized.
And this is not limited to the US elections.

Hope she wins purely for the fact it may shut him up for a day. But Mickey Mouse all the way.

It's true among the Democrats also. They are not willing to work with the white population or to acknowledge them.

Actually there are some, and on both sides. They are referred to as Centrists and were what kept the country going for decades. Now both sides have become radicalized and it's the "my way or the highway" attitude they have. They each think they offer the best solutions and close their eyes and stick their fingers in their ears and start going "nyahnyahnyah" when anyone outside their sphere suggests improvements or changes that work better for all.
Democracy doesn't need to worry about outside actions/sources killing it. The members are doing a perfectly fine job of that themselves.

Trump is a terrible candidate, even for extremists. For instance, how can Christian fundamentalists back him, when obviously "he is what he is"? What message is being sent here?
