I am a long term anti-donkephant who will vote for one of the unholy two candiadtes for the first time in 30 years. Mostly because I feel that the repubs have actually shown good faith this year while the dems have done the opposite of that. As for COVID, it will not add even 5% to the annual death from all causes in America. IMO something to be concerned about but not something to shut down the country over.
I agree that the candidate quality has dropped over the years, probably because of the vetting and bull$#@!. I mean a billionairre raised amd spent way more than the job pays to get elected!
But I have seen the ultra left affiliation with media myself, I was outraged when the dems held up the first relief bill for pork. The authority grabbed by dictator governors for months is as unamerican as it gets. Allowing our cities to burn, or rather allowing the sections housing the very people you propose to help, burn is equally repugnant.
I think the repubs are a short term answer and they are probably only that because Trump is really one of them.
Anyway have you considered third party?

What exactly have the dems done this year that indicates good? For example inner cities are burning, more young black men then before are dying under the reign of BLM, an economic crash that may yet destroy the dollar leading to true povery for millions. Still big dem cities, the ones that elect them are the worst of COVID hell holes, including the very worst in the world DESPITE unconstitutional restrictions state wide with no regard for level of virus!
In short the heart of our inner cities are essentially 3rd world countries under dem rule and the situation has gotten worse yet this year.
So why is it good to vote dem?

The only good faith I have seen from the republicans is that they are honest about who they are, and what they want. Otherwise, they are just as worthless as the dems. They literally want to do nothing to help people who are being crushed by their failures of responding to the pandemic.
I'm more in favor of voting third party because the current two party system is just like professional wrestling. They pretend to be opposed to each other, but behinds closed doors they're all working together to screw regular people. NAFTA, Patriot Act, ACA, TPP, and the recent 5 trillion dollar give away to corporate America in the CARES act while letting tens of millions of Americans go homeless and small businesses close their doors for good. We're watching a major transfer of wealth take place and the inequality in this country is going to skyrocket. Voting for the lesser of two evils is a joke. Both of these parties do not care about us.

This election does matter, but that's beside the point.
I'm not one of these people who says that you have no right to complain if you don't vote. I completely support your right to not vote if that's your choice.
That being said, You you are the type of person who shouldn't vote. You are obviously uninformed and view things only based on an emotional reaction. Too many people like you voting is why we get stuck with horrible elected leaders.
