You could take solace in the fact that for four years after tuesday nobody here will care too much about election politics and the moral ambiguity of this election will all be over. We can go back to a sense of normalcy and not all hate eachother for worldview and instead trade virtual animals and clothing on a forum on a childrens life simulation game
That's actually not partially true. If Hillary wins, yes, the forum will go back to a sense of normality and we won't discuss politics too much. If Trump wins, politics will be discussed here for a long long time about how horrible he is. Which he is.

Honestly? If someone here votes for Trump, I hope I don't have to deal with you. Given how big the forum is, I probably won't, but still. I want to make a point right now.
If you vote for Donald Trump, you are not a nice person. If you vote for Donald Trump, that means you support racism, sexism, homophobia, and xenophobia. Sure, you can claim "I support him because he's against globalism!" Fine. You can be anti-globalism. But that does not excuse the support of him. There are plenty of candidates that are anti-globalism that aren't racist, sexist, homophobic, or xenophobic. By voting for Donald Trump, whether or not you are one of those things I mentioned, means you support those views. It means you think that those views should be represented in the White House. It also means you are not a nice person by any stretch of the imagination.
I know. I dislike his VP choice, but personally, the VP holds very little power in my eyes.
And trump has started a reformation of the republican party. No more is it the "hold on to old ways" party, but rather an Anti Globalism party. One that truly puts america first.
Hell, the most prominent journalist around this party is Milo Yiannapolous, and he is a Jewish Gay immigrant. Whatever narrative you have may need some re evaluation.
Have you even read any of Trump's policies outside of "HE'S AGAINST GLOBALISM"? He has said on numerous occasions that he wants the VP to have more power and he can just be a figurehead. You do know what this means, right? Pence would basically be the President. We would have a bat**** crazy fundamentalist Christian
zealot in charge.
You are right on one thing, Trump has started a reformation of the Republican Party, a reformation into the slow descent of "whatever makes ME, DONALD TRUMP, more money". The man clearly has no values other than making more money for himself.
On Milo Yiannopoulos. Milo is an idiotic, sexist, racist college drop-out who has idiotic notions regarding free speech, which in his mind means "I can say ****ty things but if someone says them about me, then they're being offensive!" He is a Professional Conservative Victim. He harassed people on Twitter then whined when Twitter, a private company with every right to do so, banned him. It does the conservative movement a massive disservice to prop him up as their Token Gay[sup]TM[/sup], and does them a massive disservice to themselves to prop him up as a spokesperson in any way shape or form.
That's what makes me atypical hun
Trump doesnt give a damn about people's orientation. As long as he gets money and the american people are happy, he doesnt care who you are married to. What he is against is HOW the LGBT marriage was legalized. It should be up to the states rather than the federal government. Otherwise, we end up with situations like Kim Davis.
Unfortunately for Trump, and unfortunately for you, the Supreme Court had, has, and will always have, the right to interpret the Constitution in regards to laws. The Supreme Court has to interpret laws and was forced to take this case due to numerous circuit courts having conflicting decisions on appeals court rulings. Trump is wrong. On issues such as gay marriage, what rights someone has for health care, what drugs someone can take, and numerous other social issues that would make this post obnoxiously long if I listed all of them, those are things I think need to be done on a federal level. We need consistency on what rights someone has for things that are not dependent on the culture of the state.
Kim Davis or anyone like her would have happened regardless of whether same-sex marriage was legalized nation-wide. Kim Davis is a **** who was trying to make herself a martyr. She had absolutely no right to do what she did. She is a state clerk and needed to ****ing do her job. I don't care if anyone thinks it should have been left to the states, she needed to do her ****ing job.
The day that man builds a wall will be the day that hell freezes over. There's a higher chance of Hilary apologising to Bernie for sabotaging his campaign, and that's saying something.
The wall is a hilarious meme that the idiotic Trump supporters seem to think is going to happen. Who is going to build the wall? The exact people that Trump wants to keep out. And what will happen when it's built? They will go around the ****ing wall.
Already voted for Trump. Hillary's policies seem better, but she's a liar, and all these wikileaks and Project Veritas videos don't paint a pretty picture for the establishment, so I decided to vote to burn it down.
However, if doge was an option, I would've voted doge. Or heck give us a 2 year break so we can find some better candidates.
James O'Keefe , the guy in charge of Project Veritas is a literal sack of human **** that has somehow gained consciousness. He records videos and doctors them in order to suit his agenda. Conservative media lost their **** about the ACORN undercover videos in 2009. And guess what happened? SEVERAL independent investigations have revealed that surprise, surprise, no criminal activity had taken place. He tried to illegal wiretap Senator Mary Landrieu, and doctored videos in an attack on NPR. James O'Keefe and Project Veritas are both terrible spokespeople for conservatism.
Anybody here that identifies as conservative, needs to understand one thing. If Donald Trump wins, then the alt-right wins. The party that right now most identifies with you will be run by loud-mouthed bigots. Identifying as conservative with Donald Trump and Mike Pence in charge is going to result in people thinking that you, yourself, are a bigot, just like them. If you vote for them, then that's what you're enabling.
By all means vote Republican down-ticket if that's what you want. But if you don't want the spokesperson for your party to be a loud-mouthed, trash-talking, bigot, then vote for Gary Johnson. Or don't cast a presidential vote. Whatever you do, don't support racism, sexism, homophobia, and xenophobia.
