Heard something interesting last night. Trump and Bannon will start their own party and their 20M voters will follow them off the cliff. That would make something else I've heard start to make sense. If the RNC turns off the money, Trump can quit and go third party, saying the RNC rigged against him. That would be great because 1) Republicans in total panic 2) Trumpers will never win an election and 3) Republicans will never win another election with Trumpers siphoning off votes.

What manner of evil is that beast dog? Clearly not wiener dog, though wiener dog in stature, with vaguely Shepard features.

I am voting for Madam Secretary Clinton for president of the united states. I thought I would vote for Jill stein but it's important to just break the damn glass ceiling and we can do it this year.

This year I at first said I wanted to shatter it but rolled my eyes at hillary becuase I was like KYEH it will get broken eventually but right now I'm thinking It's important the Democrats be the ones to do it before the G.O.P. gets the chance and that http://www.vox.com/2016/6/8...

Yes. I want more women in politics. I am a boy YES I KNOW I WANT MORE FEMALES IN OFFICE and AM A MALE and A woman's place is in the white house, the house and senate!

But Let me just state this like ...

I feel it's important to do it because more women will get involved if she does. It's kind of like how I don't like STAR WARS for instance as a movie but I FEEL GRATEFUL towards it because STAR WARS got a lot of people into SCI FI.

and how I dislike Dragon ball Z but like that it got so many into Anime and the same with Pokemon.

all of those things are metaphorically and analogously similar.

There will be ripple effects of getting women involved if Clinton wins. I want those ripples more than I want Hillary herself.

I have changed my mind and reconsidered what I said about Stein in earlier cases.

Being able to talk to more girls about politics too is a definite plus. because all too often women hate politics or don't like talking about it.and I value female input perspective and the like...

But I'd like to see more women engaged in politics.

actually electing a woman to the presidency will do a lot to popularize the idea of women in politics.

and it's a story-- I played some small part in shattering the glass ceiling. Which is bigger than me.

I live in a major city, albeit in the outer ring of urbanization. In my neighborhood, we have many bunnies wandering around as well as the odd possum and squirrel. In broad daylight, mind you. They aren't bothered by wandering dogs and cats because the coyotes from the park nearby have, well, eaten them. It's nice to have brave urban bunnies.

Even if it didn't completely destroy the RNC, I'd applaud them creating a far-right party. Then in the instances where the Republicans still won a race, they might be a little less shitty about things and behave reasonably, assuming the most extreme assholes of the party are in the Trump Party. This would also maybe give the Greens a chance to be more competitive, although until they drop their anti-science stance, I still wouldn't be able to do more for them than point and laugh.

it's probably been inevitable since Ross Perot. The GOP was able to neutralize that effort pretty quickly, but once again, their divide and conquer strategies are turning on them. Every Teabagger nutball group they whip up for chaos case ends up out of their control. And Citizen's United is going to end up biting them in the ass too because anyone can form a PAC and channel money to their favorite wingnut. The GOPers don't get to control the flow of money anymore. Karma, it's a bitch.

I guess fake regret is better than “no regrets”...

well, perhaps the people who actually support green policies will be able to take back that party and their greennuts will drift over to the T-Rump Party too. I mean how can you claim to be green and have such a native hatred of science and scientific method?

some of voting for Clinton though is just straight up party pride. The democrats aren't perfect but they're better than the GOP. and to me that makes it really important that Democrats be the ones to actually home field shatter the glass ceiling.

I want to be in a left of left of center party, but not a far left party. Assuming there isn't a left of left of left of center party I can join. Really, we need a decent scale for left and right, and maybe another dance party.
