Cutting your nose off to spite your face doesn’t seem logical to me. The Dems have shown they are 100% anti American and will outright fk you sideways and make you like it.

Unless you’re a useless leech then do us a favor and cut off your own head and not your nose.

Have you not heard the democrats explicitly say they are going to punish conservatives once they regain power?

Did you not hear the democrats at the FBI when they said that censorship would be their priority?

Did you not see Biden let in 20 million illegals?

Do you not see every blue city release violent blacks and illegals back into the neighborhood?

Because you don't like Trump's foreign policy, you are going to let the people who want to destroy your freedoms and country win.

There is nothing more retarded than that. Stop being so emotional. Put on your big boy pants and vote against evil. Stop being the moron who cuts off his nose to spite his face.

I'm so sick of weak conservatives who get lost in their feelings. Trump isn't perfect, but that's no reason to go full retard.

It's not hard to figure out.

Let's say they had nukes

Do you believe in the cartoonish notion that they'd immediately nuke Israel? Because that's what I'm mocking here.

Maybe. Look what the Muslims are doing to Europe. It's just one more step we cannot afford to let happen. They want you and me dead.

What is so hard to understand about that?

None. Stay home and let the lowest common denominator decide the great pile of crap you will live in. It’s for the best.

By not voting nothing will change as well. At least you have a shot with voting. I get it depends on where you live and incumbents are hard to beat but should at least try.

No, you’re not.

It’s perfectly fine to be irate at the current admin. Under no circumstance should that make you help Dems take over.

We will be vetting our new president before you can blink. We’ve shifted the Overton window right and we need to keep going a bit. We’ll have plenty flavors to choose from and live debates about our future should be very productive.

Don’t give up now.

Look at Fricking Virginia.

If the Democrats win expect them to go after everything you stand for.

Be frustrated with The Republicans or be attacked by Democrats.

Your call.

It's also mostly dudes here. Women actually go vote.


If we don't go out and vote, we are leaving it up to them.

I honestly appreciate a lot of the response. Just got absolutely irate today when I filled up my truck and saw the news about Israel not joining a ground invasion and realized that's actually a possibility and then heard marines are on the way.

It's the better of the only two decisions but just disappointed

Theres no way that a thinking conservative populist can avoid taking the black pill at this point.

I understand, my man.


Just know, MAGA/America First(I hate titles) is not Donald Trump.

MAGA is the group of us fed up enough to vote for him. We have to keep trying. We picked Trump and his like to lead us off in this push to regain some type of recognizable country(that was dramatic, but you know what I’m sayin’).

What we do from here will impact the rest of our lives, tremendously. It simply cannot be to hand Dems all the power just to spite Trump and *insert your most hated right wing grifters.*

Honestly I’ve felt what you felt many times. It’s probably a waste of time to vote, but then I’ll think of all the veterans who died for my right to be able to vote.

I will concede that our system is deeply broken, and that the GOP really sucks. In fact, they've made an art form out of sucking just slightly less than the dems to keep getting elected while lining their pockets as they sell out their base.

That said, consider this:

1. All the "little" local issues and taxes that many folks don't even research before the election will have a much bigger impact on your life. Local elections, too. Local officials like your Sheriff, Alderman, etc are much more accessible and impactful. And you can't bitch about taxes if you don't show up to vote against them. So stick up for your best interests.

2. At this point, the dems are just nuts. If you're a decent, productive person with a job, good values, a brain, and some savings/property, voting against democrats isn't even a political choice. They detest you and want to undermine your future and your family's future in favor of their deeply deranged world view. Through that lens, it's easier to hold your nose and vote for dipshit repubs.
