Hoping this can be a way to make people think more critically about their choice for US President, maybe even bring opposing sides together to fix the problems we ALL face.

So if you support Trump try to list 3 things you dislike about him and 3 things you like about Harris. Please keep answers serious. Plenty of other places on Lemmy for you to post snappy putdowns.

My answers in a reply.

    Trump is a piece of shit with no redeeming qualities and so are his followers. End of discussion.

      Yup, he even undermined the few things that were not complete trainwrecks under his watch. Someone actually posted he got the vaccine done quickly which is both wrong (he didn’t have jack shit to do with it) but him perpetuating the lie that covid was a hoax led to people refusing the vaccine!

      He has zero redeeming qualities. Not a single one.

      Yea, I’d misread this question initially as “List three good and bad things about your candidate” I can list three bad things about Harris, sure - I still voted for her and urge everyone else to do so…

      But three good things about Trump? The only one I’ve got is that he’s so fucking old and unhealthy that he should kick the bucket soon (this isn’t me advocating for violently ending his life though).

      The best part about Trump is he’s brought out into the light what fucking horrible piece of shit Republicans are (and have been for decades) for the entire world to see. Our allies are absolutely watching very closely to what’s happening over here. We need to show them we can clean up our own fucking mess.

      Yeah exactly, this is why “fair and balanced” is horseshit. If the candidates were respectable people then sure. When one is openly racist, misogynistic, and constantly lies they lost the privilege of deserving fair and balanced journalism. they don’t deserve our attention because they’ve shown (tens of thousands of times now) that they can’t be trusted.

      So no, 3 positives and 3 negatives isn’t fair when for one candidate it’d be picking for a good mix of each and the other 3 negatives would be hiding thousands of other (I’ll say it) atrocities.

      Harris has a weird laugh. Trump has been racist towards Hispanics/latin americans since day one, blaming them for everything from inflation to saying they they are taking over neighborhoods

      Doesn’t come off as even does it
