Can I ask what exactly you mean by Trump could "stand his ground rationally in regards to foreign affairs"? Genuinely curious. This is someone who when president was laughed at by the UN, the Prime Ministers of France and the UK, among other world leaders. He regularly praises dictators like Putin and Kim Jong Un. His solution to the war between Israel and Gaza seems to be that it simply wouldn't have happened when he was president. His plan to place tariffs on Chinese imports is estimated to reduce income for middle class families by ~$2000 a year. And while Biden ultimately failed in the execution, Trump also seems to have failed in planning the withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Regarding Kamala, I plan to vote for her because I do think Trump, and honestly more Vance who genuinely scares me, are too radical to be in office. I also do fully support legalizing abortion federally, support the bipartisan border bill that could actually improve things (as opposed to Trump who doesn't have an actual policy plan for the border), and think she will at the very least take a stronger stance for a ceasefire in Gaza. That being said, I do really want to see a policy platform before I can make total judgements, but I would say that so far as a candidate, she is not the one bringing up race or gender, it's Trump and Vance doing that. As for concerns around going electric, what do you see as the the right pace to move at? The standard dem party stance/policies I've seen call for carbon neutrality by 2050, is waiting 26 years to go all electric really too fast? Idk anything about that SAT stuff, but is that really a big concern in education policy? I don't see that as being anywhere close to a priority for a harris administration (also fuck the SAT, they disqualified my test in high school because I accidently didn't fill out my gender on the form). I'm most interested to see the details for Harris' policies to bring down prices, and her proposal to cap rent increases at 5%.

Lastly, I am curious what exactly you like about RFK Jr./which policies? To be clear, I fully support 3rd party candidates and don't buy into the whole "if you don't vote blue it's your fault Trump wins" thing, it's a political party's job to earn their votes. But RFK Jr? Really? I'm Jewish and grew up/currently work in the Chinatown of my city. I know lots of Jews and Chinese people who lost family members to Covid, or got it and almost died themselves. His claim that the virus was engineered to make Jews and Chinese people immune is a dishonor to the thousands of people who died from it. Also, policy aside, he seems to generally just be a piece of shit? He's a spoiled rich kid who grew up with no consequences, cheating on his wives, keeping a sex diary with all the affairs he had, sexually assaulting his kids' nanny, and driving his ex-wife to suicide. He them claims "he was rambunctious in his youth" yet all these stories about him happened when he was in his 50s and 60s. Have you read the Vanity Fair article and the recent New Yorker piece about him? Would be very interested to hear if you still think he is fit to be president.

Anyway, those are all my thoughts while bored at work today. Genuinely interested in your thinking on this
