Bro, it's like they wanna lose so badly next year election. Listen to the people voting for you, for fuck sake.
Are you new here, or did you miss when the Democratic party shut down Bernie Sanders twice in a row because he was gaining momentum and they were like "fuck, we can't have a person who actually cares as President, we might not have as much money!!!"
Because this is par for the course.
I've decided I'm just not voting next election. I'm sick of all the drama and lies, The US is fucked anyway, might as well not leave it on life support. Between constant wars, inability to handle the most basic of citizens needs and each party being a pissing contest I just decided there's no point in doing so. Not like either candidate follows their user bases values anyway and it's super unlikely anyone else will win. I'll change my mind when I see evidence that says otherwise. I've given it 8 years and seen no real big change.
I don't blame you. It's exhausting to see American leadership spending the minimal amount of political capital to please the ruling class while working class Americans suffer and we see our tax dollars funding wars and genocide abroad. I've decided to vote for Claudia and Karina on the PSL ticket. It will be the first time ever voting for PSL but I am so done supporting conservative Democrats offering last minute concessions after flopping through the entirety of their term.

Thanks for sharing!
For those reading this and think third party votes are "A wAsTE oFA vOtE"
It's a waste of your vote to vote for someone you don't want in office, just because you dislike the other likely candidate more.
A third party votes move to change main party platforms. If enough people vote for a third party, a major party is more likely to take up those stances to get those votes. Your vote isn't always abouting winning.
Idiotic take.
Yeah, let the greater evil win earlier, what a plan. JFC
Considering my state banned the most likely primary republican candidate, I don't think the democratic Party is dying for my specific vote. And if they were, my recommendation is to find someone who can walk the walk. I don't think the current one failed but, I think his priorities are in the wrong location. That is the entire point of the voting system, "you can't not vote X or Y will win" is a toxic mindset, changes never happen if you just blindly vote regardless of situation.
I think people are finally asking themselves "If I'm voting for a lesser evil, and every vote of my lifetime has been a vote for 'lesser evil', is it the ruling class itself that is evil?"
Honestly, I’m sure the right wing loves this. They love a good war, and Trump won’t give that to them.
On the flip side, watch Trump convince them all to denounce war. That would be hilarious.
LMFAO. Vote for Trump. That'll surely help the Arabs....who he fucking banned from America on his first day in office last time. Super big brain move by the pro pally crowd if they pull that one off.
