    Because it's an available option.  Why not?
    You know why not 
    No sorry I don't.  Explain to me what you think I know. 
    I think people would rather not argue and be attacked. Even picking “sit this out” will bring on the mob mentality. Not directed at you personally.

    Probably because even if someone preferred Trump, they're not going to check the box next to him, because they won't want to get talked down upon here for the next seven months.

    As you can plainly see, you can post without voting.   

    Second you can lie if you want. 

    Third,  if you post here pro Trump,  then be ready to argue.  I can defend my positions no problem.  Can Trump voters?

    It's not my intent to make this a safe space.

    Well Trump IS a bully, and a sociopath. But nevertheless, I don't find it helpful to shit on the people that like him. Because as we've seen over the past four years, that doesn't really help. It just furthers the divide.

    All I said was what’s the point in the poll. And I still stand by that. I know everyone here has all their ammo ready if anyone dare say trump, or Bernie, or sitting out. I’m aware.

    Once you go "doing the right thing". You never go back.

    the flaw i see is "sitting this one out" is actually a vote for trump. if you do not vote against trump, and you are not working to defeat him, then you are supporting him.

    trump supporters are adults. they can take criticism and they can defend their positions. for the most part anyway. i know a few that are super intelligent people and they are voting based on what their retirement is doing. i can't fault them for that.

    to clarify, voting based on how your retirement is doing is an actual reason to support him. voting for him to own the libs is not a legit reason to vote for him.

    I'm in NY which will easily go Biden.  I refuse to put my name behind him and the current state of Democrats.  So I'm going third party or write in.  If I was in a swing state I'd give my vote to Biden only as a no vote to Trump and the Republicans.

    i think this is a great strategy. i live in MO, s swing state which is going to likely go for trump again. i can't afford to go 3rd party this time.

    i just realized that bernie backing out and letting biden have the nomination makes it official that obama can come off of the sidelines to campaign for joe. 

    obama coming forward is going to be a huge boost for joe.

    If was retired (something I only hope to do when I die) and Trump's being president somehow made me a millionaire in my retirement, I would still vote against him.

    Yeah if I was in one of those states where your voted doesn't matter, I probably wouldn't even bother voting for the president. But I'm in Pennsylvania so I have to vote for Biden just to have clear conscience. Same with 2016. I didn't really want to vote for Hillary. But I thought to myself " If Donald Fucking Trump wins Pennsylvania by ONE vote and that swings the election, I won't be able to live with myself." So I voted Hillary for president, as I will Biden. Though there is a possibility that I'll hate Biden's VP pick so much that it'll be even more annoying to have to vote for him than it was for Hillary. In fact, if he picks one of the possible running-mates that I don't like, maybe I'll just write-in Hillary for VP.

    Momentum seems to be with the governor from Michigan.
