I'm not sure what you personally need to be "saved" from but expecting any politician to do it for you is foolish. Stopping Trump would have stopped Trump, and that should have been enough reason.

I'm not sure to be honest. I agree that we all should've voted for Harris, but Biden didn't "stop Trump" and I kind of doubt that Harris would have either. A missed opportunity Biden had was instead of running with her in 2020, he should've made her AG in 2021. She was a lot less compromised on her positions to the democratic status quo before she became a member of his administration, and likely would've been a more effective attack dog in going after Trump after his insurrection attempt.

"Save" as in voting for Harris or Trump would not stop their lives from being ruined by the people who run this country. Do your thoughts not go beyond "Trump bad"?

So many words to rationalize letting a convicted felon become president and thinking Harris really wouldn't have been better.

They will both let you starve or gun you down in the streets without blinking

There's no point arguing with anybody who seriously thinks this, so I won't even try.
