With the US election on the horizon I figured it would be nice to have a place for CIVIL political discord. That being said feel free to drag your third world non-american politics into the mix as well
Personally, I think covid is overhyped. Not to say that I know a lot of people, but I've never met anyone who's had it in all these months of it being a dire crisis, and nearly everyone I see in public doesn't understand how to wear their mask properly or at all.
Initially, I voted for Trump because Hilary was (still is) a truly despicable person, but over the last few years, Trump has done a lot of good for the country that the press willingly ignores in favor of bashing him every chance they can. The left has dedicated their entire strategy into demeaning the president at every opportunity that they completely forgot to pick worthwhile candidate.
Third parties tend to have better solutions than either primary party, but to vote for one is to throw your vote away, because American politics really are black and white.
