    Unless that person is voting for a rapist, say like trump.

    Feel free to shame anyone voting for a rapist. People who vote for rapists should be ashamed of themselves.

      Being a rapist is barely even in the top three awful things about Trump. That’s how bad he is.

      Not sure sending weapons to a genocidal government is the best plan for keeping him out of the White House but hey what do I know

      but that’s what the post is saying. Yes, we know Trump is a fucking maroon, but saying that to Trump voters doesn’t work.

      The post is asking “Do you to tell them Trump sucks and they vote for Trump anyway, or do you want to lead with policy and potentially change their mind?”

      Consider you’re using an app, which you like, and someone says “Oh that app sucks.” You’d think “ok guy!” But if someone said “oh if you like that app you should check out this one, it has twice the functions, and all these quality of life improvements, and it’s more secure and doesn’t have any ads” you’d think “my guy!”

      just some food for thought.

        Biden is a far better president and presidential candidate with progressive foreign and domestic policies that have tangibly and practically helped hundreds of millions of people.

        So we already have that down.

        Trump supporters and conservatives in general are clear that they don’t care about policy as much as they care about idolizing someone who hurts other people.

        So I think it’s important that they know their candidate has been found liable for the extreme of hurting other people and actually committed rape.

        If a conservative cares that much about hurting other people, it should be known widely and explicitly clear that they are supporting a rapist. That clashes more with their false, professed ideals than climate science they don’t believe in or sustainable resource management or a higher value currency.
