I would add that the economy, which is shit, is only going to get worse, and for a long time, before it gets better. I think there is a high likelihood that if Biden wins, a Republican will win in 2024 because of the shitty economy.

The working class will continue to deteriorate economically regardless of who is in office. It's not going to change unless the people demand change. The US population isn't equipped to make real change.

No he won't be but he will be a million times better then the suffering we've endured under Trump. Not only am I educated but also I'm still a registered Republican and voted for Ben Carson and Gary Johnson in 2016 so they'll be getting a vote for Biden from a registered Republican.
I hope many more Republicans will vote against Trump because he has been possibly the worst president in American history. When Biden was in office I critized them alot but the problems I had with their administration added up to peanuts compared to what Trump has done to what I think is the greatest country in the world into a nation full of people that hate each other's guts for their party affiliation or skin color, a nation of people who thinks its a personal choice not to save lives by wearing a mask, a nation where the president reffered to a terroist plot to overthrow the goverment,killing cops, taking hostages as "intimadation" then proceeded to rail on her harder getting the crowd to chant lock her up and sews much more chaos then peace in national crisis, a president that rather make Nancy Pelosi look bad then help the country, undermines democracy, casts doubts on our free elections, you name it he's fucked us over in it.
Ask yourself something very important, can you take 4 more years of what's been happening since he became president? Is that the America you want to live in? 4 more years of denying the severity of covid19 while the deaths shoot up again?
When he asked what is your plan for America Trump responded by basically saying they already did an amazing job on covid, were turning the corner thus no need for a plan past that, when asked how he will mend racial tensions He said he already did a great job on that too and " has done more then anybody except Lincoln for the black community then Donald Trump has" that won't mend any race relations and there will never be a sense of being heard and understood by the president, one of those main goals is to make sure Roe versus Wade is overturned which is not the role of the president.
He lied to us essentially from day one about covid-19 and said it was "the Democrats New Hoax" then he said it would be gone by Spring and then he said it would be gone by the end of the summer, all the while knowing how serious it was, he is still saying that we are rounding the corner and that it will just disappear as cases rise at unprecedented rates. Do you want 4 more years of that? If you say it won't be 4 more years of what we've already been through ask yourself if Trump will really make the necessary changes to heal the nation.

You're going to be so disappointed with Biden unless you lie to yourself that the state of affairs has changed in the US. News alert, Biden is no different than Trump in overall policy. Will Biden's PR be better when it comes to the pandemic? Yes, but it will still be empty rhetoric.

ok im done trolling as a extremist lol but for real if he packs the court it will not be good we cant have one side control things. Power needs to be equally spread out. Idk how he can top trump i think people criticize trump to much over covid. We haven't faced something like this in a very long time. I mean people should be coming together not being divided.

As I said no he won't be the best president we've ever had but I think it's naive to think that nothing at all would get better. Bidens entire response to covid not just rhetoric would certainly put us in a better position then we are in now. Just by telling people the truth about the importance of masks and stress that the death toll is real and deadly serious 10s or 100s of thousands of people could been spared. A lot of the division, anger and hate in America comes from people angry about what Trump has done and the state America is in or coversly angry at what Trump tells them to be angry at which is democrats, republicans already hated democrats so they will justify it. Biden won't be wasting opportunities to try and unite people whether he succeedes or not is another story. He won't go soft of dictators to look like a deal maker. He won't hold up a bible by using riot police to plow through peaceful protesters. Biden will tax people that make over 300 grand during a time where tech stocks are skyrocketing as much as unemployment figures. .
If Biden just doesn't do that shit I don't see as big of a problem with BidenQuote:

Trump has rarely ever answered a straight hard hitting question and hasn't given any answers to hard hitting questions in years calling them "dirty terrible questions" Trump is the one who hates hard questions by far

I literally cannot read your entire op dude. All the arrogance and mind twerking was making my head spin.
Anyway, California's marijuana legalization did not happen under Trump. We voted on that in 2016 when Obama was in office and it took effect in 2017 before Trump even took office.

So you're make believing again with your "fact"s. I long for day you make an honest post. 
Education doesn't always make you smart. I know ivy league graduates that are morons
I live with an 85 year old man who has 4 bachelor's degrees and a phd in history that he only got because his school paid for it, who's a complete idiot and doesn't know how to use a tv remote or a smartphone.

Maybe you don't know much about how academia works. PhDs are completely paid for by the university in almost every case. The upper level degrees that people actually pay for are M.D.'s, law degrees, MBA's, masters in accounting, etc. The ones that are expected to pay off fast so you can pay back your loans.
PhD's require more years than those (except maybe medicine), and then you usually need to do a post doc, to get several publications out of your dissertation and get a leg up in the publish or perish environment. If good money ever comes (and we're only talking about pretty good money) it takes about two decades. Almost nobody would try for a PhD unless the University was paying for it.
When I was a PhD student at a Big 10 school, the only people paying for it were foreign students without great English skills, in this case Chinese and Koreans. All teaching assistants and research assistants get a tuition waiver plus pay for that work, and many of us were also getting fellowships which is just getting paid for nothing because you have high test scores to somehow make the university think your mere presence there enhanced their reputation.
So why are you living with this 85 year old guy who you have such a low opinion of? What's your problem?

I was under the impression that the PhD students worked at the University and paid it off through that means. I'm basically an unofficial caretaker. I help him out around the house and yard in exchange for free rent and utilities. It's the sweetest deal I can find and with covid and my ACTUAL day job being shut down, it's a godsend. I was only trying to show a point that education doesn't always make someone the sharpest tool in the shed.
Off topic but the guy has onset dementia that he refuses to get an official diagnosis for and I've had to show him how to use his phone and the remote approximately a million times. He is really not a bad guy but he can be really really really annoying sometimes. hH is stubborn as shit and still refuses to use his walker even though he has fallen several times since I have lived here the last year. He is extremely obsessive compulsive so much that it gets in the way of him enjoying life. I'm constantly having to redirect his thoughts when he gets into bad moods. But anyway it's really not that bad.

I guess caretaking for somebody that needy is mentally demanding, but the compensation sounds OK at least.

He has his good days and bad days like most people. I'm just really really happy that I have the freedom to do whatever the fuck I want. Smoke weed and take psychedelics as time permits (I'll wait until around 10-11pm to trip after he is sleeping. We both sleep late which is perfect if I want to drop acid and be up late and sleep all day.). I can come and go as I please. I really can't complain.
I just try to have empathy. doing psychedelics once a month has actually made me way way more patient with him. Like the day after I do mushrooms I'm like super patient with him. LOL.

I've heard that drivel for years and still laugh every time. That's like claiming the world is flat. Organizations like BLM and other crap like CRT training have caused the most harm in defining people by skin color and fueling hatred. Many people are too scared to discuss that fact. Nobody ever stopped to consider their holy cause might do harm! Jesus Christ - many people still say Obama is a black man. WTF?! How do you explain such stupidity?
