In fact, I would take the gas pipe before I would vote for a Democrat. On the other hand, when the candidate is not conservative enough for me I stay home.

    NOTE: I voted for Sarah Palin not John McCain.

    I did not vote when Mitt Romney was the candidate.

    I did vote for Trump in 2016 because Hillary Clinton was his opponent.

    I did not vote in 2020 because Trump did not do a single thing for conservatism or conservatives.

    Incidentally,

    Biden —— 81,284,666 votes (51.3%)

    Trump —— 74,224,319 votes (46.8%)

    Biden’s ‘official vote total’ would have been higher than Trump’s in 2020 regardless of the number of Americans who voted for him. Had Trump received 100,000,000, votes on the square, Biden would have received 100,000, 001 votes on the crook. The fix was in from top to bottom.



    The basic test of freedom is perhaps less in what we are free to do than in what we are free not to do. It is the freedom to refrain, withdraw and abstain which makes a totalitarian regime impossible. Eric Hoffer

    The political distinctions you make might be strongly felt, but this past election was a zero sum game.

    By NOT supporting Trump, you helped Biden win by at least one vote.

    While I have nothing good to say about Poppies, the OP, I have served on juries.
    Not impressed.

    First of all, getting off jury duty is the easiest thing to do in the world.
    You only serve when you're fucking bored and have nothing better to do.
    While in deliberations, they buy you lunch.
    Who doesn't like free lunch?

    If the overall education level of the panel isn't high in Massachusetts, I shudder to think what it must be in Middle America.
    All you have to do is wear a suit to court, and you will be dismissed. One of the two sides doesn't want you.

    If I were guilty, I'd demand a jury trial. 50/50, they'll make a mistake.

    If I were innocent, I'd waive a jury trial. The fucking judge is a professional who knows what the fuck he/she is doing.

    This is at least true in the states where judges are appointed by competent people.
    In shitkicker states where judges are elected, it's a shot in the fucking dark, I have to admit.
    Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
    Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848
    Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Kris Kristofferson, 1969

    I can't believe you don't love Trump!

    Do you think these reasons for supporting Trump by these supporters are false???
