As much as it sucks, we do live with a binary choice: either Harris or Trump will be POTUS. Harris will have positions that people don't like: "you can't please everyone" is a truism for a reason. The important thing is that she falls into the range of normality for our liberal political system. Trump and MAGA do not.

The opposite of conservative is not liberal, the opposite of conservative is radical. The opposite of liberal is authoritarian. The function of conservatism is to conserve liberalism.

MAGA's entire goal is to redefine conservatism to be synonymous with authoritarianism. It's not only a moral hazard to conservatives, it's an existential threat to the Consitution, individual liberty, and the rule of law.

The only way to get to "I will vote for neither" is if you think they are actually equally bad options. That's just not true.

Perhaps another way to think of this: how would you vote if yours was the deciding vote between the two?

The gaslighter in chief spoke again at an event organised by Turning Point Action:

“Christians, get out and vote, just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what, it will be fixed.”

Fits perfectly with your article.
