    Donald Trump would have been one of those people who would have bullied you in school.

    Him and his ilk reacting so strongly to being called weird is proof that, like all bullies, they can dish it out but can’t take it.

    It’s showing the world how cowardly they are. And this is how I was always taught to deal with bullies - fight back.

    Remember, they don’t care when they’re called the worst insults of pedo, or rapist, or felon. But this hurts them. This is people who would have bullied you getting their comeuppance.

      I agree that trump is a massive bully. However at this point Democrats are bullies too, even if they aren’t as bad.

      I feel like I’m watching a fight between the rich assholes on the lacrosse team and the slightly less rich assholes in JSA. At the end of the day they both bullied me. The best thing for me to do is just walk away.

      Also, read these comments. Like Jesus Christ if I wasn’t already dead set on my choice I would be now. You’re basically the only comment that actually tried to convince me to change my mind instead of just belittling me, which I do appreciate.

      This isn’t a decision I made lightly. Like I said, I’m a lifelong liberal. When I lived in red states and my vote didn’t matter, I volunteered for ballot initiatives that had a chance of passing. I voted in every election because I think it’s my civic duty to vote. I just can’t anymore. This entire thing is super toxic. It gets worse every year. I don’t want to be associated with any of it.
