I think that Democrats and Democrat leaning journalists need to hammer home how regressive Trump and the Republican agenda is. it's not pushed hard enough how bad things might get if Trump and the Republicans gain control. Even if Trump loses, I believe that it's dangerous to have a Republican majority in either house or Republican leadership in any state or local government.

Although politics are complex, there is a way to clear things up quite a bit. Look at things from a progressive vs regressive perspective. The Republican direction is full on regressive by any measure. Although Democrats have some issues, their direction is largely progressive. "MAGA" is really MARA (Make America Regressive Again)

I would vote for a tin can before I vote for any Republican. Even supposedly centrist Republicans have aided the regressive agenda of the Republican party.

Regardless of Biden's debate performance, we have to keep Trump and other Republicans out of control. It's less about support for Biden and Democrats and more about preventing the regression which will occur if Trump and Republicans regain control. We need to prevent the religion-based autocracy which will occur if Trump wins.
