...is just as bad as voting for a Republican at this point.

Trump wouldn't have won either time if so-called allies did what was best for us and voted for the Democrat standing in his way.

If someone isn't voting for the one candidate that can stop a Republican from winning and keep them from continuing this hate campaign against us, that person is not an ally to any of us.
