I 100% agree on this.
the fear is that there wont be another day. I'd rather wait with an imperfect candidate that will appoint liberal judges rather than pack the courts with christian nationalists. Or someone who wont give Venezuela $40B or send the military into liberal cities. Or *gestures vaguely at everything*
