This is especially concerning since it looks like Biden will be the Democratic contender. I don't want to not vote against trump, but how can I vote for someone like Biden. they're both bad choices, it seems like that's what politics is about.
What keeps replaying in my mind is Biden’s response - “...the former Vice President issued a statement saying that “social norms have begun to change” around people’s personal space and that he would be more mindful of boundaries in the future.” This sounds like an admission to something that he, himself, is trivializing. Men + power = potential for abuse. I truly hate to admit this but since the #metoo movement and my overwhelming feelings of disappointment, disgust and anger at the treatment of women, it’s like the guy is guilty unless proven innocent. I have very little trust in men in powerful positions and good reasons to feel that way. I’m sitting here, with my coffee, on a rainy day sheltered in place during a grim pandemic, wondering who is ever going to truly lead our country?

I feel like my choices get worse and worse.
