Sorry I don't want to vote for a criminal.

I don't deserve to called an Alt-Right or KKK member for it. I am a kind, accepting, highly educated individual and your name calling is childish and rude.
You know, every homophobic bigot I've ever come across think of himself as "kind" and "accepting".

Since I'm gay and married to a man can I still be called a homophobic bigot? Just curious

For crying out loud, I'm not "insinuating" anything. The Duck Dynasty guy spoke at the Republican convention. The KKK is openly supporting Trump.

"Judge Curiel ruled that there were genuine issues of material fact for trial as to whether Trump had personally committed fraud and racketeering. If Trump loses, he is liable for three times the damages suffered by the students who paid tuition. That is the bite of the RICO statute — triple damages. This could amount to many tens of millions of dollars."

Judge Curiel Rules Trump Must Face Trial for Racketeering in Trump University Suit

For a "highly educated" individual, you woefully lacking in accurate information.

The KKK have endorsed Hillary Clinton, or did you miss that?

There are no charges against Trump.

Do you not understand that there are no charges in a civil matter?

I've noticed the same thing.

They usually start out with, "I'm no bigot, but..."

Why would anyone who identifies as LGBTQ support a Republican? That doesn't make any sense.

Well-said, but it begs the question - why would you support a candidate who represents none of those qualities?

It's not about Clinton, it's about Trump. I understand why you don't want to vote for Clinton. But if those are your values, why would you vote for Trump?

Because,

I want to make our middle class grow again.

I want to stop the TPP.

I want to secure our borders.

I want to be a proud and powerful country again.


I don't pick a candidate because they pander to one small part of who I am and what I stand for.
