What sucks is I’m sure no conservative reads Vanity Fair.

They might if Jennifer Connelly or Hannah Waddingham is on the cover, but you're right. They're not going to read think pieces like this.

This comment section is a hilarious demonstration that there is in fact both sides.

Also I think it's rather funny that Democrats are going with the "threat to Democracy" angle when essentially Americans are being told that everything is fine with our Democracy as long as Trump isn't elected and people vote for the other geriatric instead. As if in an actual functioning healthy Democracy the American people, all 350+ million of us, decided we wanted 80 year old senior citizens exhibiting signs of senility as our President. That we wanted these career Congressional politicians to hold office for several decades until they die in office in the 90s on their death bed while supposedly still signing documents and carrying out the duties of their office.

This is a losing slogan and is just going to make people even angrier that Democrats are trying to pretend that everything will be fine if you just don't vote for Trump.
