@_dm But the thing is, it doesn't matter what people say because we have a system that makes sure that presidents don't have unilateral power.
Both Trump and Harris promise openly to do illegal things. Both of them promise unconstitutional things. Fortunately, we have a system that prevents presidents from doing things that they don't have authority to do.
And so, let's send a message to the party bosses that they need to nominate people worth voting for.
Both of these will have failed presidencies. That's just the reality. It sucks. But hopefully in 4 years parties might get the message that they should nominate better people.
In the meantime, the system will not let either of these morons do the awful things they promise.
Right. Which is why I would never make such of an equivalence. And it's weird that people try to excuse Harris by distracting with such falsehoods.
Unfortunately it happens all too often.
Harris needs to be a judged on how weirdly close she is to Trump. Not that she's equivalent, just to try to avoid the false equivalencers in the crowd, but all too comparable.
And the Democratic Party needs to be held accountable for nominating such a candidate despite democratic opinion.
@volkris @_dm directly comparing the shortcomings of Harris/Biden to Trump’s direct fascist claims is what is called a false equivalence.
