2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Don't Kid Yourself: The KGB Cost Us This Election and Pretending it's Bathrooms is ridiculous [View all]Maraya1969
(23,369 posts)12. Same with fundamentalist Christians.  They will vote for the biggest snake as long as he says this:
        "I am pro-life" and "I will end abortion"
Never mind that they want to send little children back to Syria and Somalia to die.  They don't give a shit about them.
Being anti-abortion is easy.  You don't have to get your hands dirty.  You don't have to do much except talk about it and maybe protest and vote for dirt bags who tell you what you want to hear.
There are so many things that I wish were said before this stupid vote.

        If Obama gave every white winger a gun, they wouldn't vote for him. Probably same for woman.

        It's just like the primaries- the Sanders or death people joining the GOP to blame Hillary

        Probably why such a huge variety of lies were told about Hillary; people heard what they wanted to

        and instead of admitting there's even a problem (because no one talks about it)
