This is my repost of my previous post here. My question WASN’T actually clear enough, so I had to add “United States presidential” to the title. That said, I’ll start by saying I’d vote for Governor of Kentucky Andy Beshear.

Democratic Primary: Which ever one in the top-two that’s more progressive
General: Democratic nominee
I mean that kinda is the only strategy
It was also the only strategy last election, but millions of idiots still voted for non-starter 3rd party candidates or didn’t vote.
Actually I have a better voting strategy:
— Omar El-Akkad, One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This, correction mine.
I also like to fail at my goals. High five!
So what is your plan to actually achieve goals? Protest? A coup d’etat? Civil war?
Do you think archiving those goals in a MAGA-autocracy will be easier than in a less evil system?
How many lives is that sort of change worth?
You could register Republican, then vote in the Republican primary for the less evil candidate.
Then in the general election vote for the Democratic nominee.
Although I don’t think many people are doing that, so maybe there’s a flaw in that strategy
Nah bro
Even if a “moderate” candidate wins the republican primary, its still gonna be 10x worse than the average corporate dem
Yes. But how is that relevant?
Either the Democrats win the general election, then it’s irrelevant who the Republican candidate is, or they lose. Then the moderate Republican would be much better than the maga extremist.
I guess there could be some concerns about a moderate Republican swaying more independent voters?
I simply don’t believe the GOP is possible to save at this point. So I’d never do that.
This wouldn’t be about saving the GOP. They aren’t going to collapse any time soon, and I don’t think they are morally saveable either.
It’s just about getting two chances at avoiding the greatest possible evil.
Conservatives are bad. But MAGA-progressives are downright evil.
