I'm mostly at a loss for words at how willfully blind people can be. These statements leave me shaking my head.

And what was the point of wasting prime news time on this idiocy.

(63,221 posts)"It's all about MEEEEEEE, and what my interests are". How about the fact that we are going to lose our democracy to an insane, corrupt, grifting, hateful dictator? How about making a decision to vote for the person who is going to stop that from happening you selfish fuckwits!
The only one of them I could even have the slightest bit of understanding for was the young woman in Greece, but the rest of them were just brain-dead idiots who have to make it all about themselves. Fuck them!

(53,770 posts)The nation is teetering on the brink of fascism and they can't be bothered to held save the nation from an inept, wannabe dictator.
Their candidate has to agree with them on every fucking issue. Piss off, morons.

(4,723 posts)We are moving quickly toward fascism right now, and it just doesn't faze these people. What the hell is it they want? They just gripe about how nobody is standing for what they want. But what the hell do they want? Jesus. You're not marrying them.

(86,565 posts)If they need a custom tailored candidate who is just about them, they need to abstain. Fuck them and their selfishness, they obviously don't understand Democracy.
Blue_true
(31,261 posts)Every candidate has some baggage. What I look for is the person that is most likely to deliver at least some of the policy changes that I want to see.
2naSalit
(86,565 posts)Many politicians are at least human and have flaws, as do most humans. It's what they will agree to do as my representative and the policies they are willing to support that matter. If they don't support appropriate policy and they are shitheads, well, then they won;t get my vote, but I always vote.
The self-centered wannabes in this video probably think everything that matters has something to do with some fad they saw on social media or teevee.

(31,261 posts)Like you pointed out, they dont have a clue about how a democracy works. Honestly, put all those fools on a ship and send them out to sea, maybe they will find a place that is their nirvana.
Blue_true
(31,261 posts)I believe it will take them that long just to get their noses almost in breathing range. They may needs two days, but I am so fucking sick of assholes like them.
Life is ALWAYS about their feelings. Babies in cages dont move them, massive injustice being done by Trump dont move them. FUCK THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(11,686 posts)Yeah, then you stupid girl someone has to vote for the point you are trying to get across. Nothing happens without a vote.
If you don't vote then things start happening without a vote and 9 times out of 10 it does not benefit you or most of those you know.

(2,626 posts)It seems like some of them look at the election as a DWTS show. If they're not entertained they refuse to participate.

llmart
(15,536 posts)I clearly remember them (Judy Woodruff) doing this last time also when she interviewed Trump voters. Part of the reason they're so emboldened in their stupidity these days is because they've been given too much press. That leads them to believe their idiotic views are even relevant or that they are somehow "influencers".
How about we just interview people who aren't ignorant?

(53,770 posts)evergreen assignments they dole out to reporter every time election season comes around.
Most involve the horse race angle..."get me some quotes from the Dem campaign manager, what's their strategy?" The same assignment goes to another reporter to get the repug manager's side.
Then it's "put together a grouping of undecided voters to see what they have to say."
Then finally it's "get me some quotes from people who've decided not to vote, see where their heads are at."
And that answer is up their ass.

(22,478 posts)It just lets other people decide who is going to represent YOU. You idiot!
And the other guy, "No one deserves my vote"
ARGGGG! You mean we deserve Trump because you're too lazy to learn about all the laws he has broken?

I had to do some fighting to vote this election because of my homeless status. Others that have done their time for their crimes are fighting to be allowed to vote in this country. So many fighting to vote and these... uh-hum... people just throw it away like a rotten tomato. 😠

(22,976 posts)Purity, vanity, ignorance, indifference. Theyre so marooned in their own precious egos that the concepts of democracy and the greater good is completely lost on them.
If you dont vote, you cant complain. These infants can all go fuck off.
