That's exactly right, you you you you you. You're selfish and don't care about trans people or gay people who will be kicked off their spouses healthcare when they get rid of gay marriage.
You'll sit around looking smug as they strip away protections for black people and start mass deportations. 'Should've picked Bernie' you'll say 'I'd have lifted my finger and done the bare minimum of they'd have catered to my preference exclusively'
The rest of us are doing our best to ensure the best possible outcome from the options life has given us. You're a spoiled baby, too rich and comfortable in your upper-middleclass life to give a fuck about anyone other than yourself.
I thought I was clear when I said I won't vote for that prosecutor and I won't vote for Trump.
Yes, that was understood. And just like people staying home during gore v bush got us Iraq and people staying home during clinton v trump ended national abortion access — if this election goes the wrong way you'll share equal responsibility with all the chuds.
And just what exactly is "the wrong way"? I bet that "wrong way" is if things don't go the way YOU want. Do you think I care about what you want? I'll vote for who and what I want not what you want.
