You should vote for whoever you want and for whatever reason you have... Its not my place to tell you who to vote... but I will not stand idly by when someone lies, deceive, slander, cheat, fearmonger, or threaten people with ridiculous ideas and notions...

The people who are putting up all of that fake propaganda has a LOT to lose if Trump becomes president... I don't like Trump but I don't like the wealthy powerful a LOT more who lie, deceive, slander, cheat, fearmonger, and threaten people to vote for Hillary... look at the crap they put if you vote for Trump, you think this planet becomes a fireball and we are all transported to the ninth level of hell... I choose not to believe propaganda and choose to know that the real enemy of Americans are ones behind all that propaganda...

Okay, Alex Jones.

Sure, that is a vote of your conscience and I don't fault you for it (honestly, I think him to be statist and open borders guy).

Fact is, lets be realistic. This isn't a 3 person race. I mean, I could tolerate a Johnson (thought I am confused as to why not Austin Petersen as he was far more in line with liberty based government), but in reality the race is a binary choice as much as I hate to say it (trust me, I voted for Perot).

So, by not voting for Trump (again, I am not faulting you, heck.. I have struggled with this) you are saying you are content with a Hillary presidency.

After a lot of thought, no... I am not... in fact, I would prefer a civil war over putting that proven criminal in office.

Will Trump be good? Hard to say, he is a leftist, but then he isn't a "idealist", he is a dealer. This is good and bad. It means we might see some healthy things done concerning the country with conservative oversight, but it also means we could end up with some real "Bush" like decisions and compromises.

At the end of the day, I just can't let her win. She doesn't deserve the presidency, she deserves a cell and to allow her in office is to spit on everything this country was founded on.

I just can't do it.

Like I said, I can't fault you for not voting, or voting 3rd party. I just know I can't allow her to win. It would be devastating.

Then why would you support Trump?

And so what if he is? There is nothing in the constitution that says our leaders have to have a certain style of governing versus another. It's only in your narrow-minded worldview that authoritarianism is a priori bad and it's opposite is good. We're not speaking the same political language as you. We don't have a knee jerk reaction to the word authoritarianism like you liberals.

Yeah, interesting fact here.

You do realize Jones and his crew have been more correct on this election than your entire MSM combined?

So your dig is showing extreme bias on your part and pretty much outing you as a propaganda poster.

Sure he is......it's one reason I will not vote for him. It's certainly not a reason to be a huge hypocrite and vote for the corrupt authoritarian from the other major party though.
