Right there with you. Democracy doesn’t mean just two parties, and I don’t give a shit if that’s the status quo of our country—Look at where it has gotten us! Yes, keep playing into it, because surely things will change if you just keeping devouring the garbage they serve you. I’m sure as shit not a Republican; hell,…
The lesser of two evils is still evil. I had four choices on my ballet, I chose the one I wanted for President. Denying me two of those choices does not improve your candidate. Clinton was a terrible choice, be an adult and take responsibility for that instead of blaming everybody else.
Clearly. Obviously.
I voted for Johnson and there is no way on earth I would have voted for either of them. The Dems are not taking the right lessons from this. They need to take a look in the mirror.
Then maybe, just maybe, she should have done a better job of campaigning.
Blaming Johnson for the loss is like a football team blaming there loss on a ref’s bad call while ignoring dozens of missed opportunities they had during the game.
You really going to demonize me because I liked neither Trump or Clinton and voted for the Libertarian ticket with the hope of expanding a two party system to add more alternatives? I understand you are demoralized with the results, but these sorts of tantrums and talking in absolutes that condemn people with…
He took the Bernietarian vote. Which is why it was stupid for the Dems not to put him on the ticket. They truly and epically screwed the pooch on this one by not reaching out to the anti-establishment voters.
Call me crazy, but acting as if the democrats had the right plan/strategy/candidate but just got screwed by forces out of their control is a terrible terrible strategy that might lead to a second repub term in 2020.
I think he did. If anything Johnson most likely helped make this closer for Hillary than it otherwise would’ve been. Trump won whether Gary Johnson existed or not.
Seriously? This shit again?
I guess I don’t understand his platform that well, but I thought he took votes more from the Repubs than from Dems?
