    Just wait. The dumbfucks will sit it out again. smugly confident because of some polls say, or because their bellybutton lint changed color again and it’s too much for their virtue signalling personalities to handle, or something. Lazy disconnected people will just make up any excuse and point fingers away from them every time.

      I won’t say there isn’t room for concern, especially as there are quite a few people that are starting to think that the issues between the parties are irreconcilable. And the problem is, one party seems more disingenuous than the other – at least that’s my perspective.
