Leave, and don’t look back. He’s mentally unstable at best, and cruel hearted at worst. Either way, not a good partner and certainly not a good father figure.

Pretty much. My best friend for years was a full blown Republican(He liked to portray himself as a Libertarian but we all know that joke) whereas I’m a liberal leaning independent, and thus in this two party shitfest of a country vote Democrat.
He’s telling you he he is. 1. More important than you. 2. Voting to save you. RUN.
So, as others have said, should this person be your fiancé? They are actively voting to harm you and your children, choosing to believe baseless conspiracy theories, and clearly do not share any ideological framework with you.
Time for a break up.
Before I read through the comments and everyone tells you to LTMF, I wanted to tell you that I am in the same boat. We have been together for 5 years, so we went through one election cycle together. He knew I was a leftie feminist, but he was a small government republican. I made a whole meme for our friends that I…
you aren’t married yet, I’d keep it that way
As I said above, my own personal experience has made the idea that you ditch or accept people entirely based on their politics a pretty silly idea. That’s the sort of privilege afforded to people where people who share your politics are relatively abundant.
My therapist told me when I started seeing her that a lot of problems in relationships can be overcome, but differences in values are so fundamental that it’s not something you can just get over. It always breaks the relationship in the end.
Then make sure to vote in all the downballot races. Fucking with the electoral vote won’t affect them.
Compulsory voting has a lot of benefits. One of them is that it drags politicians toward the centre since they can’t just try on the base to be enough. Another us that voter suppression is impossible and highly unpopular (since if it’s hard to vote you still have to do it pisses people off).
2 words to consider: Republican fuckery.

Narrator: The election will not be in serious dispute come January 6, 2021.
It could be worse. I had been a regular poll worker for many years before 2018, and as a poll worker we are not allowed to know what is going on with elections. I was an election deputy in 2016 which is a roving troubleshooter covering many precincts. This means I was driving around in my own car and could listen to…
or shit....make people get fined for not voting without good reason.
One of my close friends is a Berniebro White boy who, while I’m sure is voting Biden, never ceases to complain about him, and I gave him a full dressing down today and explained why he can’t just vote Biden, he needS to support Biden! There are THREE SCOTUS judges age 70 and over! Contesting election results can only…
They refer to Trump as “shady”? That’s like saying Hitler had a bad attitude.
Could not believe someone very close to me and shares so many of the same ethical views, political views and so much more basically said they probably wouldn’t vote, because they live in a red state so what does it matter. Nearly lost my shit. But instead gave them the “I’m not mad, just disappointed.” speech. Then…
Solution- NUKE the couch that your co-worker or friend is going to sit on while they plan to skip voting.
