As much as I'm frustrated with the democratic party, and don't really believe that the whole "liberal agenda" is anything to be proud of, I think there's an inherent, undemocratic danger to the alternative. I can appreciate the neutral stance, but I earnestly believe leaders like Trump endanger democracy and the world at large. It's pretty hard to put into perspective what it is to have had a president who seriously floats ideas like nuking hurricanes. And he's stated plainly time and time again that his rule is more important than the constitution.

As much as I think Biden isn't a great leader, I don't think his continued leadership puts our democracy into objective peril.

Colby submitted this terrific piece to the publication on this subject just last night if you're at all curious to read.
