This is just about the dumbest argument I've ever heard. There is a VAST cultural difference between the US and China and the East Germans were actually screwed by us making a bullshit deal with the USSR.

This is also the same shite argument centrist democrats have been using for the last 25 years. "Vote for us if you don't want something worse!"

Guess what, I voted for them and something worse happened anyway. So I am done voting for the middle of the road. Because all it has gotten us is the mess we are in right now.
