Or, you know, people are generally more well informed these days and knew well beforehand HRC is
pretty horrible, herself. Not everyone makes emotional decisions, some distance themselves from the
juvenile partisan bullshit and let the issues govern their decision.


Eh, impossible for Trump supporters. They have never been interested in any issues other than "make liberals upset." Hillary haters, however, make sense. Maybe those people don't like the policies HRC would have put in place. But people who legitimately think Trump was a good choice are 100% emotion and 150% juvenile.


I don't think it's that simple and it's compounded by the issue of people (like myself, if I'm being frank)
who despise HRC being lumped in with people who supported Trumps presidency. I don't think every
Trump voter necessarily preferred him either, but (again) partisan loyalties often obscure rationality. I
think this applies to both sides. I found it equally difficult to find HRC anything less than an abhorrent choice.

Even then, if you didn't like either candidate and you were a pretty right leaning person, it's only natural
to gravitate his way in hopes his policies would favor your perspective. Lower left participation hurt, too.

But yeah, the herp derp 'murca nonsense was at an all time high. I'll judge him on his policies, though, not bias.

I sincerely don't think this could have been a win for anyone, either way it played out. I refrained from
voting, personally, because my views encompass values from both "sides" and I consider myself a centrist.
She's a disingenuous, hypocritical see-unt, he's a blowhard loudmouth douche who lacks a filter.

Neither provided anything meaningful, both pose their dangers. I kind think we're fucked.
