When what I've said has already been stated by multiple people in the thread before the post I was replying to it definitely seems that way. You're either not actually reading most of the thread or you're reading it but not actually listening to what people are saying.

Cmon you were throwing around 'SJW' earlier, you're in no place to tell people to be nice.
Besides if you care so much about friendly debate why support a candidate who builds his image on mockery?

what a fucking joke
you jump on board with the guy who accuses reporters of PMSing on national television but the moment anyone treats you with the slightest impoliteness you start shedding crocodile tears.
You don't want honesty, you want schadenfreude. You want people to say mean things to people you don't like and for everyone else to shut up. You're a fucking hypocrite.

2 pages too late, but both of the Roosevelts are my political heroes. Theodore broke the Republican expectations at the time by going after and regulating/reducing trusts and big business, and FDR put in a lot of social programs and helped bring the country out of a massive economic depression, not to mention being a hero to people with disabilities.
[QUOTE=Hanso;50696654]I'm stumped at why people are having such a hard time grasping why he did this.[/QUOTE]
When the person he endorsed is an exemplification of what he was hoping to change, are you surprised people are mad? I mean I get the reasoning behind it and it's definitely the best move he could make to achieve the objective of changing the democrats for the better, but it goes directly against the principles he touted.
[QUOTE=MissingNoGuy;50697382]this just sounds like "we need to defeat the right with the left". he could have endorsed Stein, but he didn't for some reason
polarization is a huge issue and i'm surprised no candidate ever brought that up[/QUOTE]
I wonder what that reason could possibly be. Maybe it's because Stein would split the vote, resulting in a Trump win, which is the exact opposite of what he wants? Yeah I'm gonna go with that.

You have the first amendment right to express your opinion.
We have the first amendment right to mock the ever living shit out of how uneducated and idiotic your reasoning behind that opinion is.
No wonder you support a man who wants to slowly dismantle the first amendment by legally discriminating based on religion and wants to expand libel laws to sue newspapers for being mean to him. Thin skin.
At this point it doesn't even matter for me. My vote literally doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. The electoral college pretty much means my vote means jack shit when I live in a staunch red state and my vote will technically go for Trump.
That's why I am probably voting for third party either for Stein or Johnson. I will already be throwing my vote away even if I vote for Hillary. And I just can't hold my nose and vote for someone like Hillary who is trying to get power for the sake of power and being a blatant criminal. And honestly if we want to change our countries politics then we have to start somewhere.
I just wish Johnson and Stein were running on the Republican and Democratic tickets. Both candidates for me are actual candidates for President where voting for one of them doesn't feel like your betraying the country when you vote for one of them.

Reality doesn't matter. It's all about projecting what you like onto Trump. He's so inconsistent that it's hard to know his actual position, so instead of doing all that hard work to find it out, just make up the positions you like and say Trump's for them.

What do you want me to do? You don't respond to logical criticism. You applaud bullying and mudslinging in one breath as "honesty" and decry it in the next as "intimidation".
You don't even have a consistent world view to critique. And when anyone points it out you start crying like some fucking five year old.
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;50697354]4 months ago, you literally admitted to being a total pushover who just goes with the flow

Try using your reason to explain, in reasonable terms, how in the shit a Bernie supporter can go to Trump. Because there isn't one. There are reasonable views on why someone on the right should support trump - there's zero for having someone flip from the furthest left candidate to the furthest right one. Absolutely zero. Unless you have no conviction whatsoever in your political beliefs and you're treating the election like a popularity contest, in which case you're brain dead and the defining reason we have an electoral college in the first place.

you aren't really replying to them, you're just kind of backing out
if you want to prove to them Trump is as good as you think he is, then just tell them exactly why you think he's the better choice and what about him makes it so. Stop being so evasive.

You could instead talk policy, or just not post.
You are aware that Trump's tax policy is predicted to put us [URL="http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/publications/analysis-donald-trumps-tax-plan"]trillions more in debt right[/URL]? Is this the economic plan you're supporting?

I already did.
I like him because he's going to bring jobs back to America from abroad, and I like his gusto when dealing with shit.
I made this post last page. I went into detail about the policies I support.
I never thought I'd live to see the day when a good portion of Facepunch is supporting Trump, and another good portion still are voting Bernie or third-party now, [I]despite Bernie getting fucked because of the same rigged system.[/I] And people are still supporting this shit. Fucking Christ what a world.

He doesn't get the difference between a plan and an opinion.
Trump says "we need to fix the economy" and that's all he needs to pledge his support, because Hillary's saying the exact same thing but she's crooked and Trump isn't. The fact that Hillary's economic plans are reasonable and reduce the burden on taxpayers like myself is irrelevant - they both want to fix the economy, so they're the same there.
Political ignorance. People buying in to the retarded idea that "idea" is the same as "policy." Everyone in the world knows we need to fix our economy - the discussion about that is [I]how we're going to do that.[/I] Little demagogue populist "but he hates ESS JAY DUBYEWS" dipshits don't care about policy, only rhetoric.
[QUOTE=Sableye;50696755][B][U][I]FDR[/I][/U][/B] and Truman are probably the most forward thinking, greatest presidents we have had in a long time.

Yes I suppose a literal racist like FDR is truly someone we should be looking to for inspiration in the progressive movement
We're talking about a guy who appointed a KKK member to the court, and was OK with the internment of thousands of asian americans because they might be spies?
