Its crazy how you people believe we cant voice concern over the issues a politician takes part in and still vote for the lesser of two evils.

Its crazy how you're saying "dont vote for him" as if theres any way to vote for him in anything right now.

Its crazy to me that as a "lefty gun nut" you dont want better for your fellow lefty gun nuts, hell for everyone. Youre okay with "ill compromise and sacrifice trans people if i get mine".

insane.

Preemptively criticizing Gavin and opposing him in the Primaries but voting for him if necessary in the general election is also an option. No need to equate opposing him with handing Republicans a win.
