@NotATether, a system in which you only have option A and B is, in my opinion, far from the democracy they are proud of as a society. Realistically, the options they have are to vote for a man who suffers from dementia and who is not capable of anything, or to choose an arrogant bully who still has some sense in his head.
Given that the US is a country where money comes first, then we should not be surprised that the crypto industry is mostly on the side of Trump, who promises them everything they want to hear. To me personally, it looks like a big circus full of amateurs in which in the end nothing turns out the way it should for the majority, but for the minority that is at the top it is always a win-win situation.
