    The problem is, he isn’t fit. He’s just less unfit. People are frustrated that instead of a normal, reasonable alternative, they have to pick the less ridiculous of two ridiculous options.

      I think part of the problem is that democrats/liberals expect more from their candidates. Republicans just care about winning and destroying the other party.

        Oh . . no, they - they’re not Americans. They just have thoughts to share from, y’know wherever. Canada, Germany, . . .other. Places.

            Well, yes, but I meant it much more broadly - the election threads are full of hot takes from people all over, who all point out, quite correctly, that whatever happens in the election will also end up affecting them.

            It’s just an unfortunate circumstance that they don’t have any first hand experience of the process, with it’s many (and sometimes bizarre) quirks, so sometimes the hot takes are not as well informed as they otherwise would be.
