How about dropping the protests until after the election and putting all hands on deck registering voters and doing GOTV calls?
And if Biden loses?

You will not be engaging in their games and most of all you can be focusing on things to help win this election.
Protesting is not engaging in a game. Protesting is also not about winning elections.
