There was a thread for a while which was deleted. This gist was: Trump is terrible, but the dems are crazy. What is one to do.
My response there could not post because the thread was deleted. Trump only stuff goes here.

The president is mainly a figurehead. If they can't effectively lead, then no much gets done. As awful as Trump is, he has not got much done. Thankfully. He's all talk and very little action.
That said, he's an absolutely terrible figurehead. He's an embarrassment. We've become the laughing stock of the work instead of the moral compass. It's time for Trump to go. And all who enabled him to go as well. It's time to rebuild the republican party into the part of ethics, morality, and reason. If that's even possible any more.
Biden might be able to get things done as president. If he stays the centrist he's been most of his life. If he veers to the far left he won't get much done. Everything starts with the president, but if he can't lead (like the past several presidents), then it's up to congress to muddle things through at the typical snail pace they follow when directionless.
For me there is only one choice, and it's clear and it's for the soul of our country. Not that I expect great things from Biden. I don't, but Trump abject amoral, lying, corrupted con-man's game has got to go. It can't come quickly enough for me.
