I Do Not Want ANYTHING To Do With Trump Voters Now Or In The Future.

I really do hate Trump humpers. They want to put a maniac in the White House. They are just as hateful and crazy. I do not have any neighbors around me with Trump signs so far. But I have seen them in some neighborhoods. I just do no want them in my presence if they come out openly for Trump.

Trump really is the worst candidate in the history of the US. When you enthusiastically embrace evil you just cannot be human.

They will most likely be extremely bitter and will continue to attack Hillary forever.

It's not like they have only one channel to watch or one radio station to listen to

7. Some people are slow to come to this conclusion.

They're in denial. Some stupidity, greed, and lies - the traditional GOP stock in trade - can be set aside for various social and political situations. Outright evil - hateful misogyny, racism, Islamophobia, etc. backed by violent talk and action - can not be tolerated. A lot of Americans who find it repugnant still can't accept that this is truly the character of about 30% of their countrymen. It's not going to change. Oh, a few will come to their senses after some life-altering event, but others will sink deeper into that cess-pit. Reality dictates that the solution is minimizing their ability to harm others, and working like mad to save their kids.

8. A year from now you won't be able to find anyone who admits having voted for him.

Sure, a few completely unhinged morons will still be floating around out there, but mostly, Trump voters will just be too embarrassed to admit it.

9. Not possible where I live

And I get to listen to the endless whining not just the day after, but for the next four years and almost certainly the four years after that. The only thing that may save me is that I will likely outlive most of them. Hate like that tends to shorten the life span by a few years.

10. Oh, no. "Enthusiastically embracing evil" is all-too-human...

...the true horror of the Nazis wasn't that they, and their supporters, looked and acted like story-book villains. They were just normal, "average" Germans who were led to the unspeakable by evil men. They marched into Hell with their eyes wide open. And that, unfortunately, is about as "human" as you can get...

12. If there is one good thing that has come of the Trump campaign...

it is that people who were closeted racists, misogynists, law & order badge-sniffers, white supremacists, and nationalist ass-hats are out in the open. I will no longer associate with those who have revealed themselves.

This election has cost me a couple of long-time friendships.

16. I don't hate anyone, but I don't have time for everyone

...and its an easy choice of who it is possible to have any kind of connection with.

Fortunately I have a busy job and a busy life, and work among similar people. Though I live in a RW area, I can't say I've heard much in the way of political discussion this time around. Trump is a punchline, if anything, and then you move along. I do have one relative, who I never actually met but have been FB friends with. Had to put her on ignore - after the "groper" tape she posted a bunch trump lines about it and a bunch of hatred toward Hillary. She has a teenage daughter, and I just can't imagine the kind of mental gymnastics involved, I just couldn't listen anymore.
