Supporting people you find to be terrible people and politicians because they have the right colour party badge?

My principles and morale stance on issues pale compared to the basic corrupting of politics. Holding your nose and voting for a corrupt soulless politician on the hope they may represent some of your views is something I'm not interested in doing. Nor do I care how the optics appear to be in your eyes.

On a side note, I don't think I've agreed with the captain before politically. This feels strange.
You said if you were American, you would vote for Trump. Everyone has pointed out that despite you being a pretty hard line progressive left winger, you would seemingly prefer the individual most likely to destroy progressive values because you find the other choice to be more corrupt (somehow ignoring Trump's straight up admission of buying politicians). You believe Trump is somehow the bastion of integrity and an enemy of corruption. Lol, child please. At least say you'd rather vote Jill Stein, at least you'd be pretty safe from the onslaught your getting.

You are entitled to believe Hillary would be way worse for your beliefs and cause than Trump would be. But just don't ever say #### about what Trump does if he wins, because you said you would vote for him. Willingly and gladly accept what comes if he wins. If he crushes progressive values, openly cheer it on. It's what your asking for.
