I wish we could take the midterms here in the US for granted, but we clearly cannot. I don’t mean winning them, I mean *having* them. Every single day until November the Trump regime will be hunting for pretexts to nullify them. We’re done misjudging how far they will go.

This is not the chief reason—it’s a flimsy pretext.

At least make a good faith argument and say it clearly: you don’t actually believe that Democrats are in fact a lesser evil at all.

That analogy only applies if half of the villagers believe the werewolves are just great, and not a problem at all. In which case, SomeLiberals point would be valid and necessary.
