This is a popularity contest, as it's always been. There's more people that want to vote for Trump than there is for Biden. Hinging an entire election on the never-Trumps is fucking risky.

That's a sad statement to make about a few hundred million voters.

But....it also perfectly aligns with their history.

Last time they de-throned a fascist who threatened global peace and stability it required the ill-judged intervention of a 3rd party...who ironically thought crippling the US Pacific Fleet would do the opposite.
