No one ever says, 'I hate what he stands for and he has MY vote.'

"He tells it like it is" means "he says things I like to hear."

In modern politics you never know where anyone stands. Having a platform is political suicide. "Stay vague and useless my friends" ~the least interesting man in the world.

Talk less. Smile more.
Don't let them know what you're against or what you're for.
- I'm very much for whatever my pollsters tell me to be for on a given day and/or whatever lobby has overflowing pockets!!

"He's a man of action" is not positive if the actions are shit.

I don't like what Biden stands for and he has my vote.

What a good German
then I do not trust your moral convictions, if you are so willingo to toss your vote to somone who you do not belive in what they stand for
- No it's because the other guy is infinitely worse and the American system of only having two parties forces us to choose the best between two options.
- My moral conviction is I would like my queer friends not to be genocided next year. Go fuck yourself.
- Your moral convictions tell you to not vote or to vote for literal fascism?
- Alternate take: If you’re at a table with nine outspoken nazis, and you’re not actively working against them? There are 10 nazis at the table.
  A refusal to vote against a fascist is tacit support of that fascist.
- If you can't see why the alternative is objectively magnitudes worse, I really don't trust your judgement.
- You probably missed the premise. It's "who aligns most with my moral convictions"
- Since when do morals have anything to do with voting?
  If I followed my morals I wouldn't vote at all because I'm morally opposed to the existence of government.
