Do breath holders understand what is at stake if Trump is elected?

[rbrnmw]

I mean really this is about the survival of civilization, this no normal conservative vs progressive election. Please understand Trump wants to destroy the Constitution. He wants to punish anyone who doesn't agree with him. He is far more dangerous than your average teabagger

[bravenak]

1. They know

They just do not care because they are deluded into thinking that they are somehow 'protected' from the real bad shit that we will get

[rbrnmw]

2. but we will be first

[bravenak]

4. That's why they don't care

[rbrnmw]

5. well they will be next

[bravenak]

6. In their minds it will end before they get theirs. They think they will be in charge after

[rbrnmw]

7. well best laid plans and all

[bravenak]

8. Yep. Boy will the tears flow once they realize that he lost their money and ruined america

Once the breadlines start they will be butt hurt.

[rbrnmw]

9. there will be no bread if he is President it won't be a Democracy or a Republic

[lovemydog]

36. I really do wish they, especially younger ones,

would read the republican platform and the democratic platform and see the stark differences in what each party is saying they will do when in office.

And learn about what happened during the presidencies of Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush.

If they're not worried about what happened to their parents or the economy, in terms of greatly increasing inequality, listen to folks like us and vote for us.

I say that because I talk with lots of young people and will do my best to persuade them to vote.

Anyone over thirty who doesn't see the value in voting, or in speaking positively of liberals, I truly don't have much use for them. I don't associate with them in real life and do my best to ignore them online.

[MohRokTah]

3. They know.

They just don't give a shit. They actually are STUPID ENOUGH to think that after it all burns down, they will be the ones to pick up the pieces.

Seriously. It's Ralph Nader level idiocy.

[MohRokTah]

13. .

[still_one]

39. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++

[2banon]

14. infantile snark doesn't help your case.

[RonniePudding]

16. I'm not trying to make the case

[kerry-is-my-prez]

23. That was hilarious! For the record, I'm a 61 year old woman.

[Jamaal510]

50. "Screw you guys,

I'm going home!"

[onecaliberal]

11. This doesn't help. Sorry, but stop. I know it's frustrating. You're peeing in the wind.

[2banon]

15. "Breath Holders" ?

really?

[rbrnmw]

24. yes the ones who say let Trump win

are like a 3 year old holding their breath to get their way they reside on a Hillary hate site that pretends to be Progressive. I am the mother of 5, I have little time for pity parties. I have to worry about their future existence.

[bigwillq]

17. Seems like you do too

"He wants to punish anyone who doesn't agree with him."


Don't worry. Hillary seems like a strong candidate, She should win without those nasty, crusty, free-thinking "breath holders".

[Thinkingabout]

18. Trump could give a 75 minute speech but could not control his emotions for 24 hours.

He isc a loose cannon.

[Andy823]

19. They know

But their hate for Hillary outweighs their sanity. They also think, as has been pointed out, that the revolution will come in to full being once Trump is elected, and then they will win and take over the Democratic party, or start a new one. They don't seem to realize that if Trump were elected, there would be no revolution, and none of their plans would come to be. Of course some are either right wing trolls, or Trump trolls so they really want Trump to win because they are brain dead.

[NanceGreggs]

41. Oh, exactly!

The "let it all burn" crowd invariably envision themselves emerging as triumphant leaders once the smoke clears.

It never occurs to them that they'd be the first to be wiped out by the conflagration.

[Ghost Dog]

44. In the USA, like in Turkey or elsewhere,

any successful revolution or party in a civil war or similar would need to have the bulk of the military, especially the airforce, on its side.

[NanceGreggs]

45. It would need ...

... the bulk of the populace on its side, first and foremost - a technicality many revolutionist wannabees tend to overlook.

[Ghost Dog]

46. Preferably but not necessarily, history shows. n/t

[aikoaiko]

20. I wouldn't worry. It will be alright.

[duncang]

21. Tonite he started trying to eat his own party.

He seems to be getting a good start at trying to destroy his previous rivals in the repub primary saying tonite he is going to start pacs to knock them out of office. Right now a Oh, chit being echoed through the republican halls saying what have we got created.

Even though if he made it to the Whitehouse that wouldn't be legal. Kind of removes any doubt he would go after anyone who doesn't kiss his back side several times on each cheek.

[oasis]

22. They'll come around before they turn completely purple.

Whatever the case, Hillary will be taking up residency at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue come late January 2017.

[Cha]

25. They're their own worst enemies, rbr.. Fortunately,

there's more of us who actually care about the Planet!

[Tal Vez]

27. In my opinion, many people have been voting/not voting in a manner that cannot be

sensibly reconciled with their best interests. All I can say is that Clinton can be counted on to get the best deal that she can for people who have little or nothing. I have no doubt about her intentions. The conservatives have no doubt about her intentions. That's why they hate and fear her.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

28. When you say "breath holders", to whom are you referring? nt

[rbrnmw]

29. people on a "progressive" Hillary hate site

[ChisolmTrailDem]

30. Why are you dragging them into this website? nt

[NanceGreggs]

42. Because this is a discussion ...

... about breath-holders, and people who indulge in such childish antics while clinging to the delusion that they are accomplishing something.

That makes a certain website incredibly relevant as a perfect example thereof.

[Grey Lemercier]

43. what is a "progressive" Hillary hate site? seems like an oxymoron

[Spitfire of ATJ]

31. Imagine James Inhofe as head of the EPA....

[BainsBane]

32. I can only presume they've moved toward the GOP on key issues

And prefer a right wing, billionaire hate minder dedicated to slashing corporate taxes and deregulating business.

[cliffordu]

33. so, I guess what you're saying is:

'The beatings will continue until morale improves'

[Old and In the Way]

34. They want to be the Capos in the concentration camps. Nt.

[major debacle]

35. "I mean really this is about the survival of civilization"

Drama queen much?

[lovemydog]

38. It is, if you consider our brothers and sisters

living and prospering as ties that help bind civilization.

From climate change to health care to planned parenthood to foreign affairs to black lives matter, a lot is at stake this election.

What do you consider important to civilization?

What do you think is worth getting worked up about? Stubbing your toe doesn't count.

[lovemydog]

37. No. I also think we should talk more about Hillary's positives,

starting with the democratic party platform.

I think we should emphasize valuable policy matters from the platform, every day.

For example, millions more have access to affordable health care and Clinton wants to expand and strengthen and improve the Affordable Care Act. When Trump and all republicans say 'repeal and replace' it, they really mean repeal it outright and throw us back to when people went bankrupt from sickness. They have no plan to replace it with anything.

[still_one]

40. Those that subscribe to this don't care. That is what lack of oxygen does

[Her Sister]

47. I think they got hard-ons from the GOP HRC Hate-Fest last week!

Can't think! Won't think! Those hard-ons are the most important issue in their lives!

[Matt_R]

49. Sending a HUG your way

Clinton won... Sanders supporters will come around. Give US some time, no need to keep fighting US.

WE are against Trump after all. WE don't want a Trump presidency either.

[RandySF]

51. Mark Ruffalo and Rosario Dawson will be fine no matter who wins.

[Jamaal510]

52. The "let it

burn down" logic from some doesn't make sense. They're implying it won't be so bad if Trump and his Republican brethren are victorious because then, people will realize how bad they are once everything is in ashes, and there will be a dramatic leftward shift. The funny thing is that leftward shift has yet to happen in the states that have been solidly red for a long time and have experienced years of Republican ineptitude in governance.

[Agnosticsherbet]

53. They feel they are in a privaledged position

Where the worst Trump and Republicans can do will not hurt them to aNY gteat extent. Minorities, the poor, women, the LGBTQ community do not share that position. A Trump administration overseeing complete extremest dominance of all three branches of hovernment will do far more harm than Bush.
