In reply to the discussion: The argument I'm getting re his taxes HELP! [View all]PatSeg
(47,767 posts)56. If your brother is still on the fence
after all we've seen the past four years, I'm not sure it is worth the effort to try and convince him to vote for Biden. All the information and data is out there. If he really wanted to know the answers to his questions, he could find them in five minutes online.
Meanwhile, I'm not sure it is worth it to get dragged into a debate that probably won't go anywhere, but will most certainly exhaust you. If he thinks a SCOTUS pick is worth living with all this corruption, incompetence, and immorality, I don't think anyone can get through to him. But you know him better than we do, so how to deal with him is up to your own judgment. Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

If he's still on the fence by now, he's voting for Trump but just can't admit it to anyone.

Most of that is true, except for the rich part. But trump is still a conman and loser.

If they were just legal loopholes, every billionaire would be paying only $750 in income taxes.

What kind of self-proclaimed billionaire (without provable evidence) steals money from his own CCC*?
Lock him up.
