That's because you were taking the wrong test, and had prepared for the test with the wrong information. Had you studied the correct info, you'd have a solid president right now, not some Orange Tweeto ass-clown,
You're right, Dash isn't an asshole. Neither are you. You're just a guy who wasted his vote so that Trumo could win. Prepare for massive buyer's remorse, So, as per the old-timey commercial, I do blame Denorex.
I didn't waste my vote. I voted my conscience and stand by my selection. How did my vote for Johnson help Trump win? That seems to suppose that I would have voted for Hillary were it not for Johnson.
So, your guy didn't win, didn't have a chance to win, and would have been a pretty lousy president. So, I think its a mathematical certainty that your conscience is pretty much useless.
And anyone who tells you that voting for a third party doesn't hurt the Democractic Party is flat-out lying to you. The Republicans are pretty cohesive in their party platform: big business, less government waste, putting poor and colored people into small bags and hurling them into the river, etc. The Democrats are a lot more open to new ideas, such as those entertained by third party candidates (so long as they aren't just stupid). That isn't theory, that's just fact.
The thing is, you are not supposed to vote your conscience. You are supposed to vote for the person who would nurt the least amount of people. At the most pragmatic, you vote for the person who is least likely to hurt you.
Millions can attest that you voted wrong.
My vote for Gary Johnson in the state of Texas did nothing to hurt Hillary Clinton. The flaw in your logic that a vote for the third party hurts the Democratic party is that were it not for the third party, people would have voted for the DP. In reality, I would sooner have abstained from voting entirely than vote for Clinton. Further, who cares what millions of people think? Millions once believed in slavery but that didn't morally legitimize it.
Again, it isn't a logic flaw. It is a documented fact through at least a dozen studies since the late 80's. So, my logic is on solid ground. So, thinking that your (and others') thoird party vote didn't affect the election in favor of Trump is provably false. That you would have otherwise abstained from voting entirely means you wouldn't get to complain. About anything. Anyone who fails to vote has failed their first effing responsibility as an American.
Lastly, wtf? 'who cares what millions of people think'? And you are comparing a safe, sound and prosperous Clinton presidency with fucking slavery? False comparison much? If you want to talk morals, your candidate couldn't even find Aleppo on a map. Trump thinks it's just fine to molest women and children. He's in the pocket of the Russians.
I think you need to sit down and re-think the many, many bad decisions you have already made with your life, and strive to do better than the half-assed job you've done thus far.
@hexy, theodorerex obviously didnt like either Clinton or trump, and thought Johnson would've been a better pick. What's wrong with that? And he's more conservative, so I really don't think he cares that voting for a third party candidate would hurt the Democratic Party. Which I personally don't believe that that is true because Clinton was a flawed candidate (while I do think she was a better option) it was hard to really 100% stand by her cause she was a little sketchy. Trump appealed to the working middle class and in the end it helped. That's why he won. It's not because there was a third party candidate.
