      The constant challenge with Donald Trump is to remain aware of his manifest personal flaws, and avoid sliding into denial or amnesia - but not constantly obsess over telling people things everybody already knows about him.

      Yes, Trump is a bad person unsuited to the presidency. Yes, that matters. No, it's not the only thing that matters.

      The character of the chief executive is important. But to say it is the only thing that matters is to say that all public policies are identical. That is nonsense. https://twitter.com/trogdor8768/status/1303026335518994434 …

      Yes, I always try to remind people: you cannot avert your eyes from who Trump is or what Ds are. You vote Trump, you accept an unfit man. Vote Biden, you choose policies & theories of governance that permanently damage the country & its institutions.https://twitter.com/Patterico/status/1303020237223149571 …

      I think a lot of people do the opposite; they ignore his atrocities because hey, what else do you expect from this guy? It perpetrates a numbness to statements and events people should not be numb to. (Example: "He encouraged people to vote twice? Oh, well, no surprise there...") https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1303017784201351170 …

          Different people can come to different choices. But we have a responsibility to face the consequences.

          Why is one "accept" and the other "choose"? And what are the consequences to the country and its institutions of having an unfit man there?

          That is why “None of the Above” is a reasonable choice.

          Vote third party, or write someone in. Because votes should be *for* a candidate, not against.

          Lol, Biden’s a relatively moderate Democrat, and you act like he’s some kind of dangerous extremist.

          Either voters are responsible for the whole package or they aren't. You can't plausibly argue that reluctant Trump voters aren't on the hook for his lying and outrageous actions, but all Biden voters are responsible for every judge he picks.

          Either way, you own both. Still not sure if I could pull the trigger on Trump, but on the two biggest issues there are - the five-decade-long struggle to overturn Roe, & the survival of the American democratic rule-of-law system - the stakes are extraordinarily high.
