So, you are such a pantywaist that you will probably click away from this once you realize what forum this is, but your cowardice is not my problem… your dishonesty is. And you asked for the citation, so here it is, Dipshit:

First, Bijou Drains posts this in the Howard Schultz thread:

> [@Howard Schultz considers run; urged against.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/howard-schultz-considers-run-urged-against/828511/238):
>
> Nate Silver says a guy like Schultz could divide the pro Trump vote instead of hurting a Democrat
> 
> good explanation here:
> 
> [Socially Liberal, Fiscally Conservative Voters Preferred Trump In 2016 | FiveThirtyEight](https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/socially-liberal-fiscally-conservative-voters-preferred-trump-in-2016/)

Then, talking to Shodan, Thing Fish posts this:

> [@Howard Schultz considers run; urged against.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/howard-schultz-considers-run-urged-against/828511/242):
>
> Check the 538 article linked above. Certain People are always calling for a “socially liberal, fiscally conservative centrist independent” to break the two-party duopoly. Problem is that only like 15% of Americans are both socially liberal and fiscally conservative.

Then you, dipshit, posts this query, thinking GOTCHA YALL!

> [@Howard Schultz considers run; urged against.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/howard-schultz-considers-run-urged-against/828511/243):
>
> Which candidate do you think those 15% supported in the last (Presidential) election?

Let me quote the headline:

> [@Inscrutible title of mysterious 538 article](#):
>
> Socially Liberal, Fiscally Conservative Voters Preferred Trump In 2016

Let me quote the URL fragment, in case clicking was too hard…

[Quote]  
https… socially-liberal-fiscally-conservative-voters-preferred-trump-in-2016/

[quote]

So, reasonably, I asked:

> [@Howard Schultz considers run; urged against.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/howard-schultz-considers-run-urged-against/828511/244):
>
> Trump. It says so in the article. Did you not read it? I mean, the headline itself says:
> 
> > [@](#):
> >
> > Socially Liberal, Fiscally Conservative VotersPreferred Trump In 2016

You ducked the issue, preferring to whine about CNN, Vox, Evil Economist catching you in more bullshit, then, three days later you were able to squinch up enough courage to have the following interaction:

> [@Howard Schultz considers run; urged against.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/howard-schultz-considers-run-urged-against/828511/304):
>
> Still want to know if you even bothered to click the link, Ditka.

> [@Howard Schultz considers run; urged against.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/howard-schultz-considers-run-urged-against/828511/305):

> Not until today.

You see, Ditka, this is why you’re the least respectable of this Boards conservatives. You’re a coward. You’re a liar. At least Shodan, SA, et al have the courage of their convictions. You? **You can’t summon the courage to read a cite.** How dare you call yourself a _man_.

Let’s put it this way: in other threads, you like to talk big about how the “red side” can take out the “blue side” in a Civil War.

Debatable.

But one thing is not debatable: you, ese, are not man enough to be one of the ones firing guns. We have nothing to fear from the likes of _you_, who will spend this supposed civil war hiding behind the skirts of women, tending to the children, and lying on the Internet.

Fuckwit.
