It's hilarious to me that Hillary's constituency is the one of "decency and compassion," and yet y'all hold anybody who disagrees with or doubts her WILLINGLY at the stake, ready to go up in flames.
Who is "y'all"? I've never done that. Nor most of those I know who are voting for Clinton.
They both are horrible choices, yes Trump is garbage but lets not kid ourselves here that he has any shot to win NY so by me not going to vote against him it doesn't even make a difference. Hell, I don't think the Republicans have ever won NY in my lifetime. So if I don't want to vote for Clinton why should I? If I don't want to vote for Clinton my vote literally doesn't matter. I'm not making a difference at all anyway and I think she's a terrible choice for president.
The whole "my vote doesn't matter, anyway" is not an acceptable excuse for not voting. Whether you are part of a very clear majority or very clear minority, your vote LITERALLY counts. As in, your vote is COUNTED. And if you're relying on polls or historical voting trends to pre-determine the outcome of your state, then you are a foolish idiot. NOTHING IS CERTAIN except that your vote only counts if you actually vote. Yes, the two-party system controls the election and you may not want to vote for either of those two candidates. You can still vote honestly for the other candidates or write in your own, but if you claim "it doesn't matter" to do so, then I honestly feel that your opinion is worthless and invalid since you obviously do not care enough to participate. If you choose not to participate in the vote, then please don't participate in the discussion, either. The ONLY TIME your vote "literally doesn't matter" is when you intentionally choose not to vote. And by doing so, you have acknowledged and accepted that your opinion does not matter, either to us or to yourself. I find the proclamation to not participate in the vote under the guise of a stance or protest to be a selfish and vain act of cowardice and an immature and desperate plea for attention.
That's the sort of moronic attitude that surprised the UK with Brexit. If you don't vote and Trump is elected President, don't act surprised and by all means, blame yourself.
