While I personally, in good faith, cannot vote for the man, I do hope he wins simply for the reason you stated. It is my fervent hope that if the unthinkable happens and Trump wins, uber-liberals and proud self-declared SJWs will take at least a week to think of how far reasonable people on the center/center right and…

But if you really think about it: no election is a *normal* election. Mitt Romney was called Hitler, too. Obama and the left thinks of him fondly *now* but back then I remember him being painted as “a very scary candidate for women” and thoroughly mocked for saying Russia was a geopolitical foe. Heck, Jez ran an…

Thank you. His rhetoric simply cannot be any dumber and/or simpler than it already has been - the man speaks at a fifth grade level, for goodness sake. And apparently even that is too much for some people to comprehend. “Ooooh, scary orange man wants ALL the brown people gone.”

Geez, and Trump is the one who is fear-mongering?

Why is it “lucky?” *Luck* had nothing to do with my immigration journey. Long, countless forms filled out painstakingly, tax filings, bank statements, FBI checks, police records, months and months of waiting, physical health and background checks, biometric appointments, oaths, fees and interviews had a lot do it with…

This. I don’t understand. OMG! He said he’ll DEPORT people. AND? You mean like how Obama and every other President has before him? Like, geez. That’s how it’s *supposed* to work. If you are here without authorization, then you have no legal status to be here and therefore, are subject to deportation and removal from…

The obstructionist Congress is an often touted example of the Republican resistance to Obama. Yet the 9/11 bipartisan Congressional bill that passed was vetoed by President Obama. Is he being obstructionist now or merely doing what he believes is right and in the best interests of the country as the highest executive…

Precisely. I don’t particularly like Hillary and if she wins, I’ll shrug it off and go to work the next morning while hoping that Paul Ryan and Co. can keep her in line. If Trump wins, I’ll do the same. Whereas this lot will literally have a meltdown that the Apocalypse is upon us.

You seem to have a very warped sense of what the U.S. President can and cannot do within the legal limits of his power - for example, the President can’t deport Latinos from the country of their birth. Signed as someone who actually is a legal immigrant to this country, now naturalized US citizen (pro-legal…

Precisely. She is lucky that she is running against Trump. Someone like a Paul Ryan, for instance - who is informed, reasonable, generally well-liked and seeks consensus - would’ve obliterated her. It’s the inconsistency that bothers me, mostly - it’s like, what does she stand for? As a NY Senator, she was against…

I am a PoC (female immigrant from India) and I’m largely undecided in the sense that I’m voting third-party, and not for any one from the major parties. White people - racist or not - also get to vote however they see fit.

Thank you. I am surprised that so many people think that just because someone is uncomfortable with the idea of Trump at the helm, that they should be rushing to join Clinton’s camp enthusiastically - who, let’s face it, is disliked immensely and widely regarded as untrustworthy. And Trump is polling well with…

Been to Michigan and Wisconsin in the past few months. Saw lots of Trump signs, not a single Clinton one. Here in Albuquerque, I’ve seen two Sanders bumper stickers. And one Trump sticker. On a white brand new Mercedes. Brave guy.

In other news, water is wet.

The anticipation of the first debate is killing me. I want a fucking bloodbath. I am having a huge debate watching party on Monday. Like, I know everyone is terrified and/or exhausted but with 45 days to go, this election is literally giving me life.

I know a bunch of quiet, closet grudging Trump supporters. Not racists, for sure. Most are just fed up and want to send a giant “fuck you” to Washington politicians and Trump is that “fuck you.”

Me too, I know lots of reasonable, rational, educated people (friends, coworkers, extended family) who are still sitting on the fence.

Can someone explain this to me? Like, I don’t even understand the selfish part of this, honestly. It’s my vote. I get one. You get one. That’s democracy. I will cast it as I see fit, based on my values, priorities and worldview - my vote is not meant to validate someone else’s wants, needs and desires. So why do…

I’m voting Johnson, too. Lord. A Romney/Ryan ticket would’ve obliterated HRC. SIGH.

This. Getting stabbed at a mall in America and pressure cooker bombs are now the new normal and we should all roll with it. But the prospect of a Trump presidency and a conservative SCOTUS (half of this country is conservative) is “terrifying” and “horrific” and “the scariest thing imaginable.”
