You're basically saying you're "moral purity" is more important than the people who will be directly impacted by a trump presidency. When trump decides to, or more accurately motivate others to, "purify" this country of it's queers, Jews, and brown people my wife and I will have people like you to thank, who's moral purity was somehow more important than my life. Your decision isn't moral, it's evil.

You’re basically saying

Would you like to discuss why what your said is not a strawman?

i imagine you understand what one is. You ostensibly have fingers, so you can Google it, and i imagine also that you have eyes, and therefore some understanding that what you have said has already been said, and said better, then you, just now.

Still here? Considering both of these points (and the implicit understanding between us that you also have a brain), what on gods green earth did you smoke that made you think this opinion was worth sharing with me?

Because you can't possibly think you'd convince me with your ignorant, late, copy-cat finger-wagging.

Gosh. Letting out my frustration on you felt good. That probably wasn't your intent though. What on earth were you attenpting to do?

No one replies to your moronic comments hoping to change your mind, it's for anyone else who is impressionable that might find some twisted logic in your confused hogwash.

Ah! So it was for the peanut gallery. I hope you don't take as much damage next time you take a bullet for the poor impressionable lurkers in future threads. I wonder if they will also witness your winning an argument you made up?

Are you the type who needs the last word? Please be my guest, hero.
