She would get store-brand treats instead of Temptations or Pounces. I would like to think she would still snuggle around my neck.
I went with you being an idiot although to be honest I could live with it. Cats are known for being contrary with the people they own so it just wouldn’t bother me much.
I’d chase him around the house with a vacuum cleaner until he renounced his beliefs.
They are all three under voting age, so their views are irrelevant.
I doubt any of them would vote for Trump anyway. None of them like being grabbed.
This.
This could be how Son of Sam got started.

I try to be friends with people who have other beliefs so I don’t know why that wouldn’t apply to cats.
I always thought that cats are just reincarnated versions of really lazy Nazis. When I have asked them about their political beliefs, they have always been abhorrent but then they just get distracted and go back to licking themselves so I never considered them an existential threat.
Your cat is Bucky Katt?
Surely, cats are above such things. Being concerned as they are with the ineffable and unknowable, petty squabbles among the staff are of no interest to them.
You just want to head them off before they open up their own Mouschwitz.
I wish I had said that, Dog-gone it! 
I’m not saying how I voted because doing so outside the pit could be interpreted as an infringement of the rules. Wait, I think I just made it clear how I voted.
Of course any cat I owned would have opposing political views. Cats are evil. That’s why I like them.
Some cats are Hitler on the outside, too.
My cat is adorable and looks decorative no matter what he’s doing. He looks like something Disney would’ve drawn. And he’s dumb as a stump. He sleeps ***on ***my feet, FFS, which can’t be comfortable.
My cat doesn’t run from the vacuum cleaner, he hisses at it, then glares. Same with the broom.
Heck, if your cat was merely as large as a German Shepherd it would change the nature of your relationship with it quite drastically. It wouldn’t want to kill you, since it does depend on you, but its demands would be unignorable and noncompliance quite painful.
Silly Nylock,
you left off the obvious answer.
If such a thing ever happened in my house, I would simply stop giving the cat a lift to the polling place. He is far too lazy to make it there himself. Problem solved.
My cat does have opposing political views. She’s a Monarchist of course and I support democracy though I am beginning to rethink this a little of late. Most cats are Monarchist and they consider themselves the Monarchs.
Ah! no fear my friend - the poll allows you to choose multiple options. I figured that in today’s cultural climate why add even more stress and strain to political observers of the straight dope? So, if you think your cat is stupid, you can choose that, if you think I’m an idiot you can choose that also.
If you think I’m stupider than your cat though, that level of nuance can only be expressed in the comment section - but it may actually be against the rules as Princhester pointed out; I’m actually not sure. I certainly wouldn’t complain about someone saying I’m an idiot in a thread where I posted that as one of the poll options.
