I mean, I absolutely will be ashamed when I vote for Biden in November.
Ashamed that the best this supposed bastion of democracy could offer up for me to choose between are:
The oldest person ever in the running for the job who makes everyone hold their breath he doesn’t do something addled each time he’s in front of a podium.
A guy in several criminal cases at the same time who tried to overthrow the government and is simultaneously beloved by conservative Christians trying to ban books on sex while having had sex with a pornstar who he said reminded him of his daughter.
A guy denouncing modern science who admitted that he had a worm that ate part of his brain and died.
There’s a lot to unpack there, and pretty much all of it makes me feel shame, irrespective of my ethnic background.
