Help me out with some DU snark...

A poster in a local chat room posted this:

"I believe our country would be best served if we steered clear of both, Biden AND Trump."

So far, I have "Because they both led insurrections? They both have countless court cases pending against them?... including sex offenses."

Help me out... I have a tight schedule but don't want to let this slide.

Makes the former guy look even more feckless than we all remember.

because the person will undoubtedly bring up Joe’s “hugging and touching without consent” bullshit.

I like pandr32’s response, or just leaving it alone. These people are not rational or reasonable.

Please list specifically the court cases against Biden.
What do they consist of? Trying to dismantle policies
that hurt or help people?

Because you wanted to chart a middle ground between competence and insurrection?

Because your main voting criterion is false equivalence?

That's all I've got. I'm tired. LOL
