    Only by contradicting yourself.

    Prove it.

    None of those things are the same as concluding that voting for Kamala is tactically correct

    Define “tactically correct”.

      I’m getting an error of “max comment depth reached,” so it seems we’ll have to call it.

    • OBJECTION!

      Prove it.

      To denounce a candidate is to say that you shouldn’t vote for them. To vote for a candidate who you say doesn’t deserve a vote is self-contradiction.

      Define “tactically correct”.

      A tactically correct action is an action that best furthers your goals.

        To denounce a candidate is to say that you shouldn’t vote for them.

        Or you can vote against them.

        To vote for a candidate who you say doesn’t deserve a vote is self-contradiction.

        They deserve a vote solely for the reason that doing so is the only possible means of voting against the other candidate. It’s not a self-contradiction.

        A tactically correct action is an action that best furthers your goals.

        What are the goals in this scenario?
