Good luck, America. History shows you’re going to need it

I hope the people that were saying they weren't going to vote for either actually go vote for Harris now.

Unfortunately, I think they are weak minded enough to get swayed by the propaganda trolls that the election is already over now and won't vote at all still.

I pray I'm wrong.

I’m hoping people actually show up. 

The best president of my lifetime just stepped down because he thought this election was that important. 

Folks need to show that decision matters

We need someone that can shake people out of apathy. Even if the policy is moderate the passion has to be there to move people to not be passengers to our rights getting stripped away.

I know who I am not voting for and that hasn't changed.

An historian (think it was Beschloss but don’t quote me) said that no party has won after changing the nominee.

Edit (cos I don’t want to put that negative energy into the world). No party has won after changing the nominee… until now (Cross fingers, touch wood etc etc).
