It is the time of the season

Trump will be more difficult to get rid of than a supervirus.

I'll vote for Biden, but only because he is the root canal with Novocain and Trump is the root canal without Novocain.

Biden's policies are wrong, wrong, wrong, but they can be blunted by GOP having at least one house of Congress.

Trump and his GOP collaborators will act as a Legion of Doom to bring about chaos and disorder as they transform America into the Greatest Classiest United States of Trump Org.
"Political correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it’s entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." - Alan Simpson, Frontline Video Interview

I think that the Zombies may have taken you over.  Biden?  Is the GOP blunting him now?  Also, with his current health and mental issues do you really think he'll be in for another 4 years?  Just sayin'

I am not a "Never Trumper" but I chose the "Holding Nose" option because I wanted to see the results.

I have some Never Trump friends, and I see lots of Twitter stuff from Never Trumpers. They all seem to blame Trump for the poor state of the party, and think the party can be some utopian paradise without Trump in the picture. This I do not understand, because the GOP I remember before Trump was the GOP of George W. Bush (the worst POTUS in my lifetime), Bob Dole, John McCain and Mitt Romney. So what makes them think that Trump being out of the way would make things much better?

I get it that Ron DeSantis was a much better option, at least ideologically, but he did not demonstrate any ability to win. I cannot imagine any right-thinking conservative or libertarian would think Biden is a better option than Trump. You say you want to blow up the party and rebuild afterwards? To what? To what we had before? No thanks.

A better question would be 'will Trump ever choose to not be a liberal'?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

NO. Just nope.
I refuse to reward big government from the right. Flat no.
I will not reward the massive loss of treasure and liberty that was Tumpy's first term with another.
I know the lion's share here will talk themselves into voting *for* all that eventually... It's how these things go...

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

No, it's two sides of the coin of suck, one of which we KNOW will go full totalitarian on his lame duck term, and one the Dems say will (which means they are projecting again). Either way, pissing away money we don't have in a Niagara of spending bodes ill for the future of the Republic.

I'd vote for the first POTUS candidate who swore to reduce the size of Federal Agencies by half.

That's right. That's right enough. The choice is false.

What is being sold on the right is that you must cast off your principles because... Democrats.

It is temptation in its very nature, and it is false.

I would as well. But doesn't seem to be an option. I'm not committed to Trump at this point. But he has been "lawfared" at this point in time. That annoys and scares me. What scares me more is the fact that  neither of these two men might make it thru another 4 years. Soooo...Kamala is a giant NO. I'll wait to see who Trump chooses as a running mate. That could well be the deciding factor for me.
