Young voters overwhelmingly say they would support President Biden over former President Trump in a hypothetical head-to-head match-up if the 2024 presidential election were held today, according to a poll released Wednesday.

In the Economist/YouGov poll — conducted via web-based interviews Dec. 16-18 — more than half (53 percent) of registered voters under 30 said they would support Biden, and less than a quarter (24 percent) said they would support Trump.

Another 10 percent said they would support another candidate, 4 percent said they were not sure, and 9 percent said they wouldn’t vote.

"Whelp, the world's gonna end some day, might as well end it sooner."

One could argue that fascism is fascism and that the privileges afforded to the wealthy is a flaw or possibly a feature of capitalism.

Ergo, capitalism facilitates fascism. Thanks for helping me get there.

That wasn't your argument, but okay. If your argument is that we should dismantle capitalism, then voting for a third party is not gonna do that, unless you want some type of authoritarian regime to win that is eventually overthrown and replaced, which isn't a solid plan either.

If someone has a solid plan. I’ll make time. The goal is to shift the Overton Window to the left. And we can’t do that by voting for the status quo.
