Nope. Responsible citizens step up and choose, even if the choice is between two evils.

Sure, I guess for some values of "responsible" choosing a racist POTUS is a necessity...but...didn't I -just- say you were responsible.....?

Says the person who went from discussion to posting disingenuous memes. Back atcha, big boy.
ETA: True to form, Neo posts a disingenuous meme after I point this out.

It's not 'magic', Min. It's 'supernatural'.
Because that's ever so slightly less childish sounding, and they get to toss around 'metaphysics' and 'ontology' in the same sentences.

Funny how history disagrees with Neo's objective facts.
Quote:Central to D’Souza’s grand unifying theory is the racist history of the old Democratic party, a favorite subject of D’Souza’s that he thoroughly explores in his blockbuster documentary Hillary’s America. The majority of this film is dedicated to reminding viewers that prior to the mid-20th century, Democrats were the party of slavery, segregation and the Ku Klux Klan.
D’Souza says that if this doesn’t come up often, it’s not because it’s irrelevant to modern politics, but because of an alleged liberal coverup.
If you didn’t know, for example, that Andrew Jackson founded the Democratic Party — a fact that Google will surface automatically by searching the words “Democratic Party” — it’s because Democrats have tried to hide it from you, he argues.
No matter that the Democrats’ early history on these issues is barely relevant today. The two parties slowly traded places on racial politics throughout the 20th century, a well-documented historical phenomenon D’Souza considers totally bogus. D’Souza tortures the data to claim simply that this switch never happened.

Quote:One of the most egregious examples is the half-truth that the KKK was the “terrorist arm of the Democratic Party.” While this claim made by D’Souza and Trump surrogate Jeffrey Lord is literally true, they leave out the fact that the characters of the two major parties flipped after the Democratic embrace of civil rights caused a mass exodus of racist southern Democrats to the Republican Party.

But then, we know all about the alt-right and their alternative facts.
