Tulsi would have to swear that her SC noms would be liberal for me to vote for her, otherwise yes.
Where is my, "crawl over broken, Ebola-adulterated glass to vote for whatever meat sack makes it outta the Dem primary?"

I will vote for the Democratic Party's nominee for the President of the United States of America.
Voted "yes" because of the current frontrunners (Biden, Sanders, Warren, Buttigieg), absolutely. I would consider it a moral failing not to.
If you broadened that to the full field, the only one who would really give me any pause is Gabbard. She's in the tank for someone, but if she was the only other option...

Of course, because even with the least desirable Democratic candidate we have a reasonable chance of making progress and starting to undo Trump's policies, not to mention judicial picks and a potential SCOTUS pick.
This is far more important than whom you "like."

Anyone Democrat/liberal/leftist who wouldn't want to help vote Trump out is a self-righteous delusional privileged piece of shit
Absolutely. Any besides Tulsi I'd feel pretty enthusiastic about doing it, even if I have my doubts about how the Dem will do in office. A failed Dem is better than Trump any day. Tulsi I'd feel a little queasy about, but I'd do it.
oh dont you worry about that
just wait for their ruling on congressional delegation of power where they rollback any measure of power not already in the hands of the executive
that'll be just swell
Careful, I said the same thing and I got cursed out. With that said, if you live in a purple state feel apathetic enough to stay home on election day, then you're truly the privileged that progressives call out every day.
This is what will always get me about the last election and people wearing their non-vote with pride.
Fuck.
I live in New York, so it's blue but yeah. Hypothetically speaking, if the noms are both equally conservative, why would my vote matter?
It tells you everything you'll ever need to know about those individuals.
I'm not gonna say no to anything left of the current administration, even if it lands far closer to the center than I'd like. I'm not conceding to a Biden nomination until it happens, but if it happens, I'll still vote for the schmuck.
I mean I have some tolerance for people in a VERY solid blue or red state making protest votes or voting for a third party, but if you live in an even remotely purple-tinged state and you don't go out and vote for the Democratic candidate, I am happy calling you a selfish, awful human being.
As someone else said in this thread, literal Democracy is at stake.

Bingo. They helped fuck us for the next thirty years. It sucks.
This x1000000000000000000000000000000000000000.
I've noticed this mostly with my friends who are Sanders supporters.
Yes. If the option comes down to a Democrat I don't like vs Trump I will vote for the Democrat. Trump cannot be allowed to have another term.
Also I wish the poll was public so we could see who wants Trump to win.

Don't be an idiot. Our system is unfortunately built to require voting for the lesser of 2 evils. So do just that: vote for the lesser of 2 evils. Plain and simple.
Hopefully, that lesser of 2 evils will actually be a good candidate and not a status quo stooge only interested in keeping rich people in control and exacerbating inequality further but throwing regular people a bone here and there.

With Republicans the way they are? Yes, absolutely. That being said, I'm going to fight for Bernie this cycle. He's the best candidate in the field for working class people by a thousand miles, and it's obviously the ruling class fears him the most. Go Bern.
Sucks I'll be old as shit or dead before we have another chance to take the Supreme Court.
Anyone that's a Dem and not Trump is a clear, undeniable upgrade.
Not voting or voting Trump because you don't like the Dem candidate is some grade A stupid shit to do.

Well yea but I'm side eyeing people very hard who are already resigning themselves to settling on Biden.
She wouldn't give me a second of pause of Trump. Hell, I would vote for almost any GOP over Trump. There is basically nobody, within reason, that I wouldn't take over Trump.
Of course. The Republican party wants me and my friends dead.
I will never, ever vote for a Republican.

I'm positive there's a Simpsons pic for this. And I agree. A piece of drift wood would make a better president.
You'll need the Senate for that. Mitch ain't going to allow votes while a Democrat is in office.
President can appoint temporarily while the senate is in recess. Schedule it so the court can hear cases when those appointments are in effect. Use those windows to overturn Citizens United, pass gun control etc. Dems have to stop playing by the same old rules when one party is openly treasonous. And make it a priority to make DC and Puerto Rico states so the democrats can get back the senate. Plus McConnel is getting older, hopefully he dies soon.
