You’d think inspiring dems to vote, even out of fear, instead of being complacent would be a service. ---

> [@DoggyDunnit](#): > > Or, y’know, think that we’re equally fucked as a country no matter which one of the two “main” candidates gets elected. I am sick of this shit. I’ll ask you, since **jtur88** and **Clothy** can’t be bothered to answer - exactly how is Hillary just bad as Trump? He wants more countries to have nukes, he wants to cut taxes on the wealthy, his jobs plan is “we’ll have the best jobs” with no other details, he thinks Putin is the shit, he wants us out of NATO, we’re building a wall (at our expense now), our general suck ass, so he’s going to fire them all, but first he needs them to build his ISIS plan, we’re going to expel all illegal immigrants Day 1 (apparently the angels are helping), and he’s a hypocritical, racist, lying, sexual predator, with the attention span of a toddler on cocaine. How is Hillary just as bad and how is she going to fuck the country just as badly as he is? I’ll bet you’ve got just as much to say as your verbose little buddies. ---

Know what I heard today? I heard that those door to door proselytizing dudes were only stopping at houses with Trump signs on the front yard. They believe anyone voting for Trump will buy any shit they try to sell 'em. ---

> [@Drunky\_Smurf](#): > > You know what I heard today? Hillary eats babies. Reuters article, from 7 years into the future: "After organizing congregational investigations, subpoena evidence, threaten witnesses, ignoring habeas corpus, revoking the fifth amendment, rounding supporters of Clinton to Guantanamo, torturing them, subjecting suspects to exorcisms, invoking voodoo (economics) and even hitting her with the kitchen sink, the Republicans finally acknowledged that Hillary was talking about jelly babies in that e-mail… In other news, president Hillary Clinton looks forward to help Michelle Obama’s campaign to become the 46th president." ---

> [@Sunny\_Daze](#): > > How is Hillary just as bad and how is she going to fuck the country just as badly as he is? I’ll bet you’ve got just as much to say as your verbose little buddies. By the same logic that says Donald Trump won the debates by not spontaneously combusting and that Clinton is just as much to blame for the acrimony of the debates because she attacked Trump with facts. ---
