Personal account. Last vote I cast until 2016 was in 1964 for Goldwater. I was then a vehement anti communist, I knew nothing about nor care about anything else.
But I quicly figured out that the two parties were two sides of the same coin, and did not even register to vote until Trump came down the elevator and opened his filthy mouth, then I couldn't register, as Democrat, fast enough, now I am seeing the same thing I saw in 1965, the steeple chase for donor cash.
I voted in 2016 against Trump,not for Hillary,same in 2020,same in 2024.
I would like to vote for, instead of against, but that is a forlorn hope.
Voting "against" is all we people in the USA can do in a major election. Ask a partisan stooge what their Party is FOR and it's like watching a deer caught in the headlights. The partisan brains can only reach for the list of what they are against.
Political perspective is a wide spectrum. Finding someone with just your view is like finding a unicorn. Voting against the even worse person is how 2 party systems work. I've voted 3rd party many times, and hope to get back to it someday, but not when the even worse option is Trump.
In a nutshell.

FDR didn't win by people voting against, the voted by people voting for.
Trump's idiots are voting for his agenda, not against Biden.
People voted for Nixon. I voted for Goldwater. (I was a an anti communist single issue voter)
The 1965 election had people voting against Goldwater, the Daisy ad did the trick.
