i'll vote for him in the primary but i'm going to entirely forget about it afterward because there's no chance a single great man comes along and flips the entire script all by himself.

It's safe to assume that the PSL agrees with you.

that's way too high of a standard to hold. there's a million smaller arbitrary things that are down to one guy, especially in the executive branch.

I think the point is that this guy is obviously not gonna win anyway so there's no point in becoming too emotionally invested.
