    Trump isn’t in office until he’s sworn in mid January.

    Also simultaneously LOL and I’m really sorry. Those people are not only stupid but not your friends.

        Sorry, that’s really hard. I went through a bad friend break up recently that had nothing to do with politics and it sucks ass.

            Reading comprehension is hard. I’m a US citizen, the original comment I replied to is that of an immigrant who can’t legally vote.

          Idk what’s worse: not voting and making your voice useless out of apathy or laziness, or voting third party and making sure your voice means nothing on purpose.

            The whole point of a democracy is people speak their minds, is it not?

            If you vote third party, your vote is an extension of your true self. If you vote for a potential winner just out of the likeliness they’ll win, is that really “you”?

            Same logic if you don’t vote. In Australia, voting is a requirement for all citizens, and it’s disastrous because you end up with people who just don’t care filling up some random candidate’s score, so the outcome doesn’t reflect what people actually want.

              Your true self is a waste of time.

                  Voting third party in the american system is a waste of time. If voting third party is your true self, then your true self is a waste of time.
