    Not to mention the 3rd parties just steal votes from the 2 party system we have

    Actually they don’t. The democrats arent owed your vote, a third party isn’t stealing votes.

    and don’t have a chance at winning.

    And they never will because of short-sighted people like you.

        Not voting for the lesser evil is short sighted

        The entire argument of voting for the “lesser” evil rests on focusing exclusively on the immediate issue at hand. You do not understand what short-sighted means.

        Not voting or throwing your vote away hasn’t gotten us anywhere but farther right in decades either.

        No, you’re thinking of voting blue no matter who. Making absolutely no demands of dems, voting for them no matter how abysmal they are and how little they do, is why we got where we are. Dems’ “pied piper” strategy is the reason we even have Trump.
