Chris, we agree on so much, but this smacks of normalcy bias to me.
I couldn't agree with you more that the Republicans are feckless and ineffectual; but I do not agree that they are the mora equivalent of the Democrats. That party is openly, proudly promoting the sexualization of preteen and teen kids, of full-term abortion, and of CRT. James Lindsay and Chris Rufo have well-documented that racial identitarianism is a Marxist subcurrent.
There needs to be a stemming of the tide. I'm not voting this election, because I live in a state wherein my vote doesn't particularly count in mid-terms. But to presume that it's all a bunch of the same no matter who wins is not in line with reality. I'd rather see the "do-nothing" party win than the "pedal to the metal" avowed socialist party win.
Give me Massie and Rand every single day of the week, and twice on Sunday; rather than Manchin and Sinema, I guess is what I'm saying. That's a clear and real choice on the ballot today. Tom Woods has given us the justification for voting for the lesser of the two evils. I say, take it.
