I swear it was everywhere! Related to “but her emails!”

Like they’re all just going “Trump would be worse!” And then get mad when they get hit with “he’s not the president doing this shit right now!”

      Nobody knows what Hillary would have done

      in the same sense that we don’t know exactly what Anders Breivik would do if he was released from prison and given a bunch of guns and explosives

      She’s been secretary of state and involved with the administration of several US regimes. Pretending like we have no way of knowing what she would have done is silly. She’s been a politician most of her life and we can look at her career to get an idea of what she would have done. We can also look to the political party with which she affiliates herself and see what policies and actions that party follows.

      Hey you dork, if you had any backbone you’d have responded to one of us instead of grandstanding on an edit. And dumbass, you were asking about Hillary and now you’re talking about the current election, you might want to try to keep your train of thought from derailing. There’s not really a good thruline from what you’ve been arguing to what you’re trying to argue.
      But since you’re on the subject there’s actually several not at all secret options - they’re called third parties. And here’s something crazy: You should vote for a candidate, even if you think they won’t win, at least when the only “viable” alternative is fucking genocide. Why would I give a shit wether Kamala or Trump wins? They do the same shit, only difference is assholes like you pretend to give a shit when it’s Trump who does the deportations.

      I know this concept is hard to wrap your head around when you have the memory of a goldfish (on second though, goldfish can remember up to several months back) fly, but there’s such a thing that’s called “long term planning” where you don’t just go for whatever gives you an immediate result. Politics isn’t sports, it’s not just about winning.

      You’re a little weasel. You tried to change the phraming of the discussion, you attempted to sneak this because you knew you’d get called on your bullshit, and you tried to make the case for voting for genocide. You’re a cretin of being.
