3/15 Primaries - "I can't believe it's not Bernie! ®" Edition, Paid for by Hillary for America

[QUOTE=sb27;49958353]I can see it. Bernie loses the nomination to Hillary, but Bernie does the sensible thing and endorses Hillary. He also encourages all of his own supporters to vote for a better America by voting for Hillary in November, too. But the Bernie bros aren't having that. They are still going to write in Bernie, despite Bernie telling them not to.
Then it comes to election day. The write-ins for Bernie are relatively few, but it's a close race between Hillary and the Republican candidate. It's neck and neck, until there are only the votes of one state left to finish being counted. It's not looking good! In this normally Democrat-aligned state (55% of the electorate are Democrats), 20% of those Democrat-aligned voters decided to write-in Bernie! The votes are: 44% for Hillary, 11% for Bernie, and 45% for the Republican. The Republican wins the state! And with that state, the Republican has enough electoral college votes to become the President!
In the aftermath, Bernie commits suicide because his own supporters had cost the Democrats the Presidency and all of the work done by Obama. The Bernie bros have only just realised the consequence of their actions, but it's too late. The next Presidential election is in four years, and Bernie can't stand for the next election. The new President succeeds in repealing Obamacare and many millions of Americans are now uninsured. Gay marriage is outlawed. [b]All because Bernie supporters were salty that Bernie lost the Democrat nomination to Hillary[/b].[/QUOTE]
See the problem is you're taking it for granted that Hillary is a better vote then a wasted vote
[QUOTE=adamsz;49965834]This country is dying as it is. Me voting for Bernie when he doesn't get the nomination won't change that.
The problem we have is too many stupid, uneducated, and apathetic, voters that allow frauds to be successful in politics today.
There's a slight chance things could improve once the super religious baby boomers die off, but even then, I wouldn't get my hopes up.
So I'll vote for him in the primaries next month and probably in the general election.
If people are too stupid to make informed votes, I'm not to blame for it.
Better yet. I can complain no matter who wins in November because I didn't vote for Hillary or Trump.
I can criticize both sides for going against their own interests.
Once this semester is over I'll apply to a university in Europe and work on getting my citizenship abroad.
Years from now, I''l be able to look with amusement at election time as every poor bastard in America keeps on supporting the lesser of two evils, expecting things to change.
It's either that or I start a resistance movement in the states against Reich fuhrer Trump.
We'll see what happens.[/QUOTE]
How many super religious people are voting for Hillary? How many for a day dreaming geezer?
[QUOTE=Pvt. Martin;49957001]Because I'm tired of reading all this shit about "Shiliary" and shit, when in reality she isn't really all that bad.
It's best to be ready for when this ends and if Sanders DOESN'T win.
I'm not saying he doesn't have a chance in hell, if news came in that he won the Nomination, then hey fucking awesome he got in. If he didn't, too bad, I voted, my canidate didn't win, and now I'll have to vote for the person I think will less likely fuck America up to the extreme.
I would choose not to vote for Hiliary or abstain, but the problem is the opponent is Donald Trump, so now it's vote to avoid Trump, or have 4 years of Trump bringing American back down to humiliation.[/QUOTE]
She is that bad, apparently you haven't done much research. She's implicit in the death of several people in three incidents. She is a massive hypocrite and literal pathological liar.

Millennial SJW's are just as loud, just as obnoxious and just as stentorian.
It'd be funny for Trump to win only to find out it'd be totally anti-climatic because all the GOP politicians hate him and so do the democratic ones so nothing will get done, any attempt to get rid of Obamacare will be stonewalled by Democrats much like the GOP stonewalled Obama repeatedly (fun fact all but 2 out of like the 9 competitive senate seats are in Republican territory so they won't get the super majority to stop filibusterers and shit). Outlawing gay marriage won't happen. Trump won't even get to do his most popular ideas because all the politicians rightfully think his ideas are really dumb and vague. The sky won't fall and neither will American nukes.
It'd be funny because all the absolutely obnoxious Trump posters and anti-Trump posters will be totally blown the fuck out over the fact that nothing that they wanted/thought would happen didn't happen (this also blows away people who are only voting for him to fuck up the country if Sanders loses the Dem nomination). Worst that will happen is the GOP will fracture apart to reform later and America will look stupid for 4 years, it will be like a significantly neutered Bush presidency since Trump won't have the support Bush had in congress unless something catastrophic happens. "BUT HE CAN LOBBY IT HIMSELF WITH HIS BILLIONS OF DOLLARYDOOS!" short answer is no, he wouldn't be able to. Long answer is a lot of the shit he wants to do will fuck with too many large industry's that benefit from all the shit he wants to "fix".
The only thing I'd really be worried about is his temp ban on Muslims, he could do it and would get some angry looks from other countries but no one could really do anything to us because we're America and we out military everyone else by miles, and the torture shit would really get him in a shitload of trouble domestically and abroad, I'm pretty convinced that was just hot air to dog whistle ignorant people to vote for him (although I think a fair amount of his policy currently is to dog whistle idiots and he has zero intentions of actually doing a lot of it, we're talking about a genuine world class liar that isn't very truthful and was pretty much a democrat in many ways until 2011 when he started teasing a Republican presidential run but decided not to. His only consistent stance since the 80s when he first teased a run was his anti-trade and tariff policy, thats it.)
Either way we're looking at gridlock for at least 2 years under Clinton or Trump (and even Sanders), even if the GOP blows up after either a crushing defeat or a win under Trump those GOP congressmen won't magically lose their seats because the GOP died, if Trump gets it, its well within the realm of possibility that the GOP will try to get someone to run against him for the nomination again in 4 years (unless party rules for the GOP changed to disallow someone running against an incumbent president for some reason. Also assuming most of them don't quit and make a new party) and him being a demagogue won't work again when the types of people voting for him now realize he can't actually do anything. It really doesn't seem like it will be as bad (or as good if you're a trump supporter) as most people seem to be making it.
