Concerning the political environment in this country.

You know i really don't see the point in attacking people who are supporting the current republican candidate and I honestly don't think that every person voting for him is a racist imbecile, but I do question their judgement on wishing a man like him to be the representative for our country. Inviting a foreign power to cyberhack his political opponent, making fun of a disabled reporter, quickly attacking the pope for criticizing him but taking three whole days to disavow endorsement for a former KKK member, someone who has claimed that he has sacrificed enough in his life to equal the sacrifice the family of a fallen war hero had to make while simultaneously attacking the mother of said war hero, suggesting that her Muslim faith is the reason why she did not talk during the speech ad the DNC when she really did not talk because she was liable to have a breakdown. Yes, i question your judgement, but i dont want to condemn you outright. I will say this though, You reap what you sew. You might say Hillary is just as bad but is she really? I havent done enough research on her to know what im talking about in reguards to her, but If REPUBLICANS who worked in the Bush administration and for Ronald Reagan think she is a better candidate, what does that say? I am just going to invite you to really think and do research and consider how you make an impact on this election. Are you really thinking for yourself when you want to vote for Trump? Did you bother to look into his policies, his history of success? Have you listened to arguments from the other side? Did you really think about it? It is like i said, you reap what you sew and the signs are clear. They were clear from day one, so if you get what you want, he becomes president and it all starts going down hill for there, don't lie to yourself, you know who to blame.
That all aside it's like my favorite political joke says "I've got bad news. One of the candidates won"
Mostly my point was that your argument becomes invalid if don't practice what you preach in it.You always have passion behind your arguments on here but that seems where it ends. They always feel more "I'm right, your wrong" than "Here's how I feel, here's why you should consider feeling the same." Of course if it's about ranting than making argument my point is moot.
Listen, you can have your ideals and principles regarding how the political game is supposed to be, but if Donald Trump becomes president and my family is demonized by society for begin Mexican, poor people cannot afford health care, and Muslims, like some of my very dear friends, are barred from this country and attacked for their beliefs, ask me if i think about your ideals and principles. Grow up.
