Well the next 4 years will be tough here on Languish if half of you faggots are gonna queef millenial buzzfeed-tier butthurt all the time.



Huh? You are the brainless boring Millennial internet culture trash dude here. WTF are you talking about? Not that you have ever contributed shit besides a few lame memes. :lol:

Talk about lack of self awareness. If that is the way it will go it will be your kind of place. Good for the LOLZ and shit.

Wonder what his real numbers are once you account for the Trump Closet. Let's say you work with a wow, just-wow office snitch faggot, it's then of course much, much easier to keep your head down, smile and say #Imwithher. Once in the voting booth you're then free to act like you feel.

I really do not like Trump and haven't since his Apprentice show started.   It would be very difficult for me to fill in the box next to his name. But Hillary Clinton must be defeated.   In a sense, a Trump win would be a sort of pyhhric victory for me. It would also be a sugar rush to see the hysteria after he gets elected. That hangover, though.

I may still vote for Johnson even if Ohio is close. Who knows.

Why must Hillary be defeated, and Donald not?

I interpreted as he really doesn't like Trump and doesn't want his vote to be registered as support for Trump, but in the end thinks Trump is a "lesser evil" than Hillary.

Yep, pretty much like me, except I'll vote for Hilary if it's close.  I think either of them will be a disaster for the country, but at least with Hilary, the disasters will mostly involve domestic as opposed to foreign policy.  With Trump, who knows?

What kind of disasters do you foresee under a Clinton administration?

Indeed.  ^_^

Imagine Trump winning as vividly as you can and accept that that's goning to happen. Since the worst has already happened you can then live free of butthurt. And therefore be, er, pleasantly surprised if Clinton wins.  :showoff:

Short answer--more Big Government.

Has disaster then lost all sense of being a disaster?

Nate Silver had a piece (that I can't find now) that said there was no "shy Trump" factor - that he received votes that matched what he was polling at.

Well, maybe disaster isn't exactly the right word here.  Big government is a chronic affliction.  A Trump Administration would probably create a lot of acute problems.  Not that I have a lot of faith in Hilary to deal with an unexpected domestic crisis either, but at least she's less likely to be the cause of one than Trump.

So, if a voter knows both Hillary and Trump are terrible options, what other option does he/she have? Johnson right?
Why vote for the lesser evil between Trump and Hillary? For some strategy? Ugh
