(f'ing hell im going to regret this but oh well) Rational reasons:

Posted by: islndr (a.k.a del_CHG_islander2) on Jul 26, 08:14 in response to forlorne's post What rational reason would I have for voting for a Dem?

1. economy good for some. helped by obama growth. economy generally better under clinton/obama than bush/bush (recession/recession). RATIONAL REASON #1: Dems can grow economy better

2. Portion of GOP base has shown selves to be hateful/racist/white supremecist, trump seems to embrace, even encourage. RATIONAL REASON #2: Dems more inclusive, fair.

3. trump/gop language is offensive. open disdain for women, minorities. RATIONAL REASON #3: For the party of Christians, they sure seem to ignore the teachings of Jesus. Dems may be more atheist, but morals seem better.

4. More Americans support right to choose, putting the welfare of the woman forefront. RATIONAL REASON #4: Vote dem to protect right to choose.

Keep going?

from some persons viewpoint, these are ~rational~ reasons.

I do have a job to do, not going to be here all day to deal with you

I did not vote for Trump. My 401K is up nearly 50% THIS YEAR. ISIS from caliphate to a Facebook group. {nm} forlorne Jul 25, 08:16

What rational reason would I have for voting for a Dem? {nm} forlorne Jul 25, 08:16

"Rational reason" is preventing any answers. Those that prefer socialism, want free stuff, don't look big picture, are gullible may vote dem {nm} PhoneHome Jul 25, 12:18

neither of you are willing to even consider rational, so why should anyone waste their time? also, more AMERICANS voted dem in 6 of last 7 islndr Jul 25, 12:55

you "wasted your time" in ad hominem, why is that better than a rational answer? one reasonably suspects it is for lack of reasons. forlorne Jul 25, 13:00

Actually Clinton twice as well as Gore and Hillary only received a plurality of the vote not the majority. {nm} DanU Jul 25, 14:33

Nah, there are plenty of rational reasons. It's a lack of wanting to engage and getting trapped in an angry discussion. {nm} RogerMore Jul 25, 13:03

Really? I have angry discussions? {nm} forlorne Jul 26, 06:58

I think you're more contrarian than you are critical and that's a big part of what makes these Life board discussions angry. {nm} RogerMore Jul 26, 07:21

so you're saying you think if we elect a Democrat, your 401k is going to lose that 50%? professor zovek Jul 25, 10:00

likely yes, and it certainly won't double in their 1st 2 years. {nm} forlorne Jul 25, 10:47

okay, no need to give me the hard sell. {nm} professor zovek Jul 25, 17:39

Put on your MAGA hat (made in China) and keep your eyes and ears shut... {nm} Lukasck Jul 25, 10:35

non sequitur. I did not vote for Trump. I asked why I would want any of the current dems instead. Apparently you have no rational answer. {nm} forlorne Jul 25, 10:49

Also, I'm keeping more % of my own money. {nm} forlorne Jul 25, 10:50

Not telling you to vote for anyone... just telling you to look away and not listen as usual... Lukasck Jul 25, 14:20

I clearly stated I was NOT a Trump voter. My question was not about him at all, it was asking why I would vote for any of the current dems. forlorne Jul 26, 07:07

Trump SUPPORTER... Don't know don't care if you vote or not for the Trumpet... But you clearly show that you support him... Lukasck Jul 26, 07:26

Cash out soon then. You know what history has shown happens after Republican economics get into full swing. {nm} Catzan Jul 25, 14:39

The bigotry is enough for Delta House. The belligerence ignorance and phony pandering to backwardness also would be enough. {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Jul 25, 19:05

I didn't ask for reasons to not vote for Trump. I didn't vote for him last time. I asked for reasons I would vote for any current dem. {nm} forlorne Jul 26, 07:08
