If you want my respect

I don't.

Voting for the stunt double from weekend at Bernie's does not grant you superiority.

Most of us have been voting in the primaries and are involved in local politics. It didn't matter. The R/D machine drowns out all opposition to its duopoly.

Biden will not win this election. Democracy died while he confusedly stared into the camera for 6 seconds. Beyond that, he fumbled his closing statement which should disqualify from any public speaking position.

Trump is inevitable. We did all we could to get an alternative to Biden, but his hubris will destroy us.

So your solution is to give up and throw your vote away? I'm glad you didn't want my respect because you didn't get it.

A literal corpse being paraded around for four years like Weekend at Bernie's would still be a better choice than Trump. He attempted a coup to invalidate the will of the people and maintain power, sent a mob to attack the Capitol building, and has been charged with 91 felony counts in four jurisdictions just for stuff he did while in office and as a candidate (convicted of 34 and counting).

But democracy died when an old man showed signs of being old? Not all that other stuff? Yeah, I'm voting for Biden. Easiest decision of my life. You should too.

You can argue until you're blue in the face over there. Biden lost the election with that debate. He didn't do anything he needed to do this term to protect democracy as we know it and the Supreme Court sealed the R's final solution today.

It's over man...game over. Congratulations...your support of the status quo ended Democracy.

In short, yea, I'm perfectly fine not having your respect.
