US election No. 60 likely worst choice ever

Quite possibly, President Biden and Donald Trump will top the ballot on Election Day 8 months from now. If so, it will represent the worst choice ever in this the 60^th US presidential election. 

How can that be? For starters, the likely Republican candidate, former President Trump, launched a coup on Election Certification Day in 2021 to stay in office. That was a war on democracy which, if successful, would have ended the American Experiment in democracy. Tho it failed, a half dozen died during the coup or its immediate aftermath. Over a hundred law enforcement were injured preserving the peaceful transfer of power, the most sacred pillar of democracy.

The American justice system has failed to hold Trump accountable, allowing him to run again 4 years later. If victorious, Trump will complete the democratic collapse he inspired 4 years earlier. Nearly every Republican leader has endorsed a traitor to American democracy to retain political viability in what is now the ATP (American Traitor Party).

That brings us to the incumbent, Joe Biden. While there is neither nuance nor shade of gray about Trump, Biden runs to spectrum from laudable good to pure evil. Biden was the anchor that allowed voters to reject Trump’s descent into democratic destruction in 2020. In 3 years he’s accomplished much to reassert American democracy while implementing significant domestic accomplishments improving life for the middle and lower classes.

But on foreign policy Joe Biden morphed into deranged Mr. Hyde from domestic policy’s kindly Dr. Jekyll. Right out of starting gate he ramped up proxy war against any Russian rapprochement with Europe. How? By funneling hundreds of millions in weapons to the ultra-nationalist Kyiv regime to finish off the Russian leaning Ukrainians in Donbas. He deceived Russia that Minsk II would be implemented to give Donbas independence. He rebuffed every Russian attempt to address their security concerns from NATO expansion. He made the Russian invasion to preserve its security inevitable. He compounded this mendacity by sabotaging the Ukraine Russian peace agreement that could have ended the war in the first month. Result? Two years of relentless destruction of Ukraine as a functioning country with ever 400,000 dead and 14 million on the move, of which 6 million have left Ukraine. Two years in Biden demands $61 billion more in weapons to continue to slaughter he precipitated.

As horrendous as his Ukraine policy, Biden’s Mr. Hyde reached his depraved nadir with his greenlighting Israel’s genocidal ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Gaza. The destruction of Gaza as a habitable land for the proud Palestinian people is nearly compete. Biden calls Israel’s genocide ‘self-defense.’ He cast 3 vetoes in the UN Security Council to defeat a UN call for cease fire. He’s lobbying Congress for another $14 billion in weapons to supplement the 25,000 tons already sent. Without Biden’s weapons and unwavering UN support, the ongoing genocide could not have occurred.

The electorate is not unaware of the dreadful choice awaiting them November 5 if Trump and Biden are the only electable choices. Voters are fleeing both deeply flawed candidates by the millions. Their votes will be divvied up between third party, writing in a person of peace and democracy, or simply skipping the most important office on the ballot.

Destroy democracy at home or destroy peoples abroad. That is a Hobson’s choice millions of voters will say ‘NO THANKS’ to November 5^th.
