then FFS and for the sake of democracy, please step away from your dead horse, girlfriend.

if it's excitement you crave, does the thrill of a deranged reality tv 'star', captain of industry to fleets of sinking ships, mob-boss-wannabe compromised so far up his broad behind neither sun nor legitimately earned money can shine from his a**-hole offer you and your fellow bored voters the tingles you crave?

from where i'm standing i see anyone wasting their vote in this year's pivotal election where democracy—flawed yet fixable vs. authoritarianism—is about MORE than Joe Biden and #everything about the fact that OUR COUNTRY as we've known it will NOT SURVIVE four years of a Trump & the #FECKLESSREPUBLICANPARTY at the helm.

caren, caren, caren... i'm sincerely asking you to explain your rationale that trump kicking the bucket is our ONLY OPTION when we all know what hangs in the balance of this presidential #2024 election.

i'm sincerely gob-smacked in light of the current state of our nation and the world at large—specifically considering the consequences to our flawed but fixable political structure as your chosen area of passion and expertise as a medium contributor.

respectfully,
