33 million adults and that's the choice? Really?

I am well aware that a country who ended up with Truss as PM is in no position to cast the first stone and Americans must vote as they see fit, but am I the only knew who finds the thought of another Biden/Trump face off profoundly depressing?

I cringe at the memory of the world cheering when Biden beat Trump. Now Trump looks like a preferable president.

What planet are you on? How does he look preferable?

Biden is pretty dire and I'm really hoping that he will reconsider standing again, but Trump Round 2 would be an absolute disaster!!

@Pinkflamingopants is presumably on planet 'trump derangement syndrome' 🤷

Trump looks like a preferable President??!!! That’s a good one! 😂😂

I could go into the street now and pick someone who’d be a better choice for President than Trump.

As an American I heartily agree with you. The Founding Fathers disapproved of political parties for just this reason.

If my choices next year are Biden or Trump, I'm leaving the top line blank. Enough is enough with the incompetent, moral reprobates our political parties keep choosing for us.

@BigMandsTattooPortfolio

It's high farce.

I hope armondo political satirist is writing about it..
Trumps team are probably praying he gets charged with MORE stuff because each time it's boosting his rating.

That's no way to speak of Biden.

I agree, @MrsBennetsPoorNerves but Kamala Harris wouldn’t beat Trump so Biden has to stagger on. KH was a disastrous choice for V-P, IMO. Biden needed someone who’d get up to speed quickly and be ready to run in 2024. ☹️

I just googled ‘will Trump win’ and the media mood seems to be gaining ground that it’s possible

Things tend to snowball, but we’ll see. Hard to know

@CloudyMcCloud I’m hoping that the media gloom will galvanize people into turning out to vote for Biden. It’s so depressing that we’re in this situation.
