This is a very good question. I've been wondering if the DNC is weighing the voters they alienate against the voters they attract with their strategy of moving so far right. For example, I have always done "lesser evil voting" and voted for the person who is likely to cause the least harm, and that's always been the Democrat in all presidential elections in my own life. And I was all set to vote for whoever the nominee was this time around too.

But then the DNC brought Colin Powell out at their convention, celebrated other GOP endorsements, took superPAC money from the neocons who created Homeland Security and started the War on Terror- by far the most evil people in our country who have done more harm for the world than Trump has. And right now those people have no political home- they've been tossed from the Rep party and the Dem party is not in power, and I'm not sure there's a good harm reduction argument to be made for returning them to power by electing Biden. They aren't supporting him because they care about the country- it's a chance to return them to power in some coalition with corporate Dems. So while Trump is obviously worse for the US, I think most of the harm that he's unleashed can't be rolled back anyway. And it's not clear to me that a corporate Dem- neocon alliance won't be worse for the world than Trump who has not started any new wars. Trump's a fascist, will accelerate our movement into a police state so I'm not being naive. But fucking Colin Powell? The last two times that bloodthirsty man was in the halls of power he helped kill 100s of thousands of people and destroy entire countries.

So I'm not voting POTUS this year at all. I don't know if there are enough former Republican voters to make up for the loss of votes from people like me. We'll see.
