You're right, everybody has a right to vote for who they want but I would definitely criticize anybody voting for Trump.oh ok, so you didn't TELL anybody who to vote for but you'll play the holier than thou card and just "criticize" them for voting for trump, since there's a huge difference.
But yeah, objectively I can't justify anyone voting for Trump. Sorry. People are certainly free to vote for whoever they want, doesn't mean it was a smart decision. There's a town that voted for a little kid as their mayor. It's their choice, no matter how dumb it is.
that's right. deflect it by telling me "i don't know what i'm talking about." typical. thanks for proving everything that's already been assumed.
it's pretty easy and doesn't really need an explanation, but i'll bite.
You're right, everybody has a right to vote for who they want but I would definitely criticize anybody voting for Trump.what about your statement shows that you don't think you're morally superior to anyone who voted for trump? instead of just saying, "i don't agree with people's vote of trump," you instead think your opinion has more validity than anyone's who voted for trump, by saying you will criticize the trump supporters for their vote. you think your opinion is superior than that of a trump supporter. aka holier than thou.
He's not the only one. That has been going on for damn near 2yrs here. Can't take them seriously

So all my life when I voted democrat including foolishly for Obama I was a genius. This year because I switched my allegiance and voted Trump I'm stupid. Got it. Very sound and tolerant reasoning
Why Trump? What exactly do you think are his qualifications to be the most powerful man in the world? Bush nearly destroyed the world and Trump is even worse. What exactly does he bring to the table?

Enduring four years of Trump just to rid themselves of Clinton?Welpee wrote:GustavBahler wrote:If Trump wins at least this will put a big dent in the Clinton wing of the Democratic party. Cant think of any family who has moved the party further away from its traditional platform. I hope those who were strong supporters of Hillary understand how tired people are of the Clintons and their triangulation. All it has done is move this country and the democratic party further and further to the right. Hopefully this emboldens the progressive wing of the party.Trust me, I'm tired of the Clintons too. I didn't vote for her in the primaries, didn't vote for her in 2008. I only supported her because of the opponent she ran against and the prospects of what a Trump presidency is going to look like. I would've considered voting for a sane, moderate republican if they offered one.But also understand, there were a lot of unethical forces to contributed to this too. Why people seem to be OK with foreign entities hacking emails to influence the election, the FBI injecting themselves into this election, and efforts to suppress voting is beyond me. The ends do not justify the means.
That wasnt directed at reluctant voters like yourself, more for the enthusiastic supporters of Clinton. It bears repeating that historians have to go back several thousand years to find a more unequal society. The Clintons played a big part in making that happen. Many voters who might have voted for a democrat were willing to do whatever it took to keep the Clintons from doing it again.Clinton is also against their self interest, this is the message people need to hear
I could've told them that. Oh wait I did and was viciously attacked and ridiculed. You certainly
Did too. Always admired your views despite the heat they threw at you

Obama had a large part of the Democratic voter base locked up. He had the AA vote to separate himself, Bernie had progressives and intellectuals, not the same thing.
I was going to make this same point re: early support of Obama by African-Americans.
BRIGGS may have also called African Americans, men particularly, saying what do we have to lose with Trump. Clinton may have gotten only 80% black vote in areas of Pennsylvania. I passed a guy here in Brooklyn who said he just wish he could vote Obama third term. The excitement for her isn't there with men of all races, and suburban white women too.

They only saving grace is the fact that we have balance of power and not a king. Tho someone might want to tell Trump that.Except he's likely to stack the supreme court with conservatives, they're likely to control all three branches if I'm not mistaken.

Well yeah..That's what America has elected..This dude walked in on 15 year old girls for the purpose of seeing them naked and America didn't care..
