Would you vote for half your family to be killed so the other half could maybe be spared? How do you choose which family members get to live and die? How would you live with yourself.

I plan to resist whoever is elected. Maybe you'll join me, instead of just waiting another four years to vote again.

In this scenario there is no third option where nobody dies. Either half your family dies or they all die. Sometimes all the power you have is saving who you can.

By all means, resist whoever is elected. Harris would cause fewer problems to fight over. By letting Trump win, you're just making it harder on everyone.
