I'll give you two reasons why I don't vote for a Clinton or a Trump or any other corrupt assholes.It is a determining factor in voting for a candidate even though a religious test is not used according to the Constitution yet the people of the USA are not the Constitution and therefore judge a candidate according to their religion. Which is what this thread tis aboot...So tell me the many ways Trump the adulter is a real Christian...A Christian Democrat is like a Jewish nazi. Either not a real Democrat or not a real Christian.
Is that what voting is? Is that what you think we're voting on during an election? I thought we were voting on who would be the best possible president.
Since when is the public vote, a vote on who is the best Christian?
And if that isn't what the vote is about, then what relevance does your question have?
Not true. It simply isn't. Not in this country at least.
At the end of the day, you generally have two choices. I can vote for Tim, the Pastor of Berean Church here in Ohio. But he's not going to win.
There are two people that have a good chance of winning. That's it.
So unless one is a criminal that deletes thousands of emails that were requested evidence in a subpoena.... we have to choose between which candidate best fits with our overall values.
Not stealing money in taxes.
Not controlling and dictating our lives.
Not force us to fund with our stolen tax money, support for murdering babies.
Supporting the state of Israel.
The list goes on.
So if I have to choose between voting for people who actively oppose Christian values, or voting for someone who as a person may suck, but whose party platform is generally in line with Christian values... then obviously I'm going to vote for who will uphold my values in policy, over someone who might be faithful to his wife, but try and destroy Christianity in the country.
First, as I state above, when you vote for the lesser of two EVILS, you are still voting for EVIL.
Second, when you vote for a corrupt asshole, you are telling him or her, "Keep doing what you are doing!" I absolutely REFUSE to communicate that message with my vote. My vote is way too valuable.
If enough people abstain from voting, and they are, then whichever corrupt asshole wins can never claim they have the support of the American people. They only have the support of fools.
I watched my father make that mistake in 2016. He is elderly, and so I helped him get to the polls. He's a lifelong rock ribbed Republican. But he cannot stand Trump. Absolutely hates Trump.
After he cast his ballot, he told me he voted for Trump, "Because I don't want Hillary to win big."
He hated them both, and voted for evil anyway. I suspect that is exactly why Trump won. He won because of votes against Hillary, not because of votes for him.
