That's exactly right, unfortunately the third party candidate I wanted to support (Jill Stein) wasn't on the ballot in my state because of aggressive (and probably illegal) litigation by the Democrats. I voted for Donald Trump since ensuring that Democrats don't win is the most important thing we can do to stop the genocide in Palestine right now.
Keep up the good fight, we can't let corporate Democrats control our future.
This is absolutely correct. I'm sure the 40% of voters who want to keep sending weapons to Israel aren't even Harris voters. So clearly the Democratic party is only doing it for the love of genocide and it seems obvious that after they finish the genocide in Gaza and Lebanon they'll shift their focus to genocide of Palestinians and other arabs living in America. This is completely unacceptable to me which is why I voted for Trump.
I thought about voting for a third party but I live in a swing state and want to minimize the chances of Koncentration Kamp Kamala from getting elected so I directly supported Trump rather than indirectly.
Harris seriously needs to fire her campaign advisors. There are so many easy things she could do to easily win the presidency but for some reason she refuses to do them.
Taking a stand against genocide is just one of them and is so easy to do. She'd gain 10s of millions of Arab voters plus the 10s of millions of progressive voters she's missing out on right now, and it would probably only cost her a few thousand moderate voters. Those voters probably aren't even in swing states so who cares?
I don't know why Harris is running such a stupid campaign or why she just doesn't do the really easy thing that will absolutely guarantee that she easily wins the white house.
Excellent choice, I voted for Trump. It''s absolutely imperative that we keep Harris from getting elected and voting for a third party instead of Harris helps to get Trump elected, but since I live in a swing state I didn't want to take any chances and voted directly for Trump instead of indirectly.

The 638 acres (2.58 km2) of land [We Build the Wall] built on is part of farmland that belongs to Neuhaus and Sons, and the wall added over $20 million in taxable land improvement, increasing the tax burden by 75 times.

I wouldn't worry about it, you're absolutely correct that the property value increase and the tax burden increase are not linear at all. The person who attempted to correct you is pretty notorious for being aggressively wrong.
That's a pretty negative and aggressive response to someone inviting you show how hard the Green party has been working.
However, that's a pretty poor showing for 8 years of work. no wonder everyone thinks the Green party does nothing besides run spoiler presidential candidates. You probably to need to find a hobby that doesn't revolve around falling for Jill Stein propaganda.

You probably want to go to a minimum security federal prison. The easiest way to get there that I think of is check fraud.
You'll need to write a bunch or bad checks in as many states as you can, or send them through the mail. You'll need to do this a lot, and for a pretty significant amount of money otherwise they'll just give you probation of some sort.
Having a disability might be a problem though; if it costs too much medically to keep you in prison they'll just out you back on the street as a compassionate release.
