You raise a most excellent point sir.

The self-righteous political purity practitioners put their piety over what’s right.

In the last election, I sent a letter to every candidate asking what they actually DID to protect our rights during the illegal lockdowns.

Not one incumbent bothered to answer. They did not earn my vote, however, when the general came along, I voted for those who did win their primary.

THANK YOU! At least one other person here understands that there are two factors to consider when voting - is the guy good, and is the other guy bad. If the other guy is really bad (meaning any Democrat), then you hold your nose and vote against him.

I do get the Uniparty concept, as we see it in full-force over Ukraine, where even Ted Cruz virtually demanded we blow up the pipeline, but overall, even Ted votes differently from the Dems 90% of the time.

And I do think some of the people here who talk about sitting out elections because their particular Republican isn’t ‘pure’ enough actually do vote, but for the Democrat.
