That's where youre wrong. There are more than 2 parties. The 2 party system is atrocious.
There are only two parties that have a mathematical chance of winning. You can throw your vote away on a third party, hoping to get them 20x their highest ever turn-out in the hopes that they get more money if you want. But know that what you are actually doing is indistinguishable from simply not voting. Work on getting ranked-choice voting in your state first, then vote your conscience. Voting third party now just guarantees another 4+ years of Trump.
Gaslighting people into thinking there are only 2 viable options is the reason why we're in this mess. Just saying.
Are you saying any third party has a mathematical chance of winning? It's not gaslighting when it's the truth.
