I cannot vote for Donald Trump. I also realized that I cannot vote for Hillary Clinton. It's likely going to be Jill Stein who I cast my vote for.

Both of whom are criminals, warmongerers, rapists and terrorists who deserve the guillotine. Anyone who votes for Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump is a low-information voter who should be banned from casting a ballot and thus wrecking the country, the economic system and the world as a result.

What Donald Trump says he will do, Hillary Clinton has already done to a large extent.

And nothing. Just stating what that means.
Hillary is a liberal. Bernie pulled her far enough left that I am confident that she will nominate SCOTUS justices that will advance a liberal agenda. That, to me, is what this whole election boils down to. Jill Stein has no chance at being the next president. If she did, I'd vote for her. But Donald Trump getting into the white house and appointing people who will roll back women's reproductive rights, gay/trans rights, will not support justice department reform, and will intentionally blur the line between church and state by upholding all of these RFRA laws that are being challenged would be an unmitigated disaster for a generation or two. On top of the unmitigated economic disaster that Trump himself represents. So by all means, do your civic duty. You've clearly bought into the 8 years of grime that Hillary has had applied to her. I certainly have. I was excited about HRC in '08. I am not happy about her now. But my dislike of one person doesn't mean I want to fuck it up for all of the people that depend on progressive social change moving forward. I care more for the gay community and the black community and women's reproductive rights than I dislike HRC.

But if the very unlikely happens and Donald Trump is elected President, you'll be regretting your emotional and immature vote for the rest of your life.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

This horseshit about the Clintons has been going on since 1992 and the fascists are not ever going to stop. I tuned them out long ago. |
