Let me C&P:

If You Vote For Trump, Then Screw You

by Drew Magary

Drew Magary wants a word with anyone who's about to be on the wrong side of history.
.............
Earlier this week, the Washington Post’s David Fahrenthold uncovered yet another Donald Trump scam job, in which he used over $250,000 in charitable donations to help pay off his legal bills. And, because this is Trump, that sordid (and almost certainly illegal) bit of money laundering is just ONE despicable detail of the story. There are many more, including Trump’s club trying to welch on a $1 million hole-in-one payout (out of all of Trump’s bad qualities, his steadfast refusal to pay people what he owes them, while bragging about it, is the most enraging), along with the old bit about Trump blithely ignoring local ordinances so he could put a big, dipshit flagpole up at the Mar-A-Lago club, with his lawyers stating—with a straight face—that a smaller flag “would fail to appropriately express the magnitude of Donald J. Trump’s . . . patriotism” (NOTE: Until recently, Trump didn’t know what the stripes on the flag symbolized).

None of this is surprising, of course. Trump is a liar and a crook, and he commits abominable acts at such a frenetic pace that they get lost in the fury surrounding whatever horrible thing he does next. Keith Olbermann needed over 17 minutes on this site just to list a fraction of the atrocities Trump has staged during election season, and he’s gonna need 17 more minutes to cover what happens between now and Election Day. Remember when Trump said he would get rid of food regulations? That was Thursday.

Regardless, in the end, people are still gonna vote for this man. Maybe not enough to get him elected, but still: it’ll be in the tens of millions. (Note to the people causing the polls to fluctuate: What the fuck is wrong with you? I gotta meet the five percent of people who saw Hillary come down with pneumonia and were like, “Forget her, gimme the dictator with dryer lint hair.”) Nothing that Trump says, no damning piece of Trump reportage, and certainly no opinion piece like this one will stop his voters from pulling the lever. Nor will anything stop Trump from being the officious, braindead goon that he is. He will never answer for his crimes, and there’s a frighteningly large portion of the electorate that will always love him for that.

And so I’d just like to say to that portion of the electorate: Fuck you. No, seriously. Go fuck yourselves. I’m not gonna waste any more time trying to convince you that you’re about to do something you’ll regret forever. I’m not gonna show you old clips of Trump saying rotten things. I’m not gonna try to ANNIHILATE Trump by showing you records of his hypocrisy and greed. I’m not gonna link to a John Oliver clip and be like, “THIS. So much this.” Nothing’s gonna take down Trump at this point, so I’m not gonna bother. No no, this post is for ME. I am preaching to the sad little choir in my soul here.

Because while Trump is a miserable bastard, YOU are the people who have handed him the bullhorn. YOU are the people willing to embarrass this nation and put it on the brink of economic ruin all because you wanna throw an electoral hissy fit. YOU are the people who want to revolutionize the way America does business by voting for its worst businessman, a disgusting neon pig who only makes money when he causes problems for other people instead of solving them. YOU are the thin-skinned yokels who clutch your bandoliers whenever someone hurls the mildest of slurs at you (“deplorables”), while cheering Trump on as he leaves a bonfire of truly hateful invective everywhere he goes. YOU are the people willing to overlook the fact that Trump is an unqualified, ignorant sociopath because DURRRR HILLARY IS BAD TOO DURRRR.

You know what? No, she’s not. She’s fine. I lived through one Clinton, and I can live through another. My reasons for hating Trump are better than your reasons for hating Hillary. Show me all the arguments against her you like. You guys don’t give a shit about facts and research when it comes to Trump, so I’m not gonna give a shit about whatever clumsy meme you cook up to explain why she did Benghazi. Nope. Sorry. Fuck your arguments, and fuck you. Trump has shown no respect for anyone, so I don’t see why you deserve any either. Whatever mildly frustrating centrist liberal bureaucracy that Hillary presides over will be fine compared to the spray tan mushroom cloud that would arise all because YOU thought Trump was such a brave, un-PC dickhead to everyone within shouting distance.

Trump is human waste. He is the worst of America stuffed into a nacho cheese casing, and he is emblematic of the kind of arrogant, flag-waving, trashy, racist moron that the rest of us have to DRAG kicking and screaming into the 21st century: Cliven Bundy, Sean Hannity, Kim Davis, and on and on and on. Trump voters are the people who have spent the past decade or so voting insipid obstructionists into office, sending death threats to anyone who even mentions the idea of gun control, demanding 100% tax cuts on millions of dollars they can only daydream about making, and getting suckered in by any Oil Party candidate waving a NO GAYS flag. Fuck them. These are needy hillbilly loons who are just as starved for attention as Trump himself. And voting for Trump is their way of emulating him, of saying FUCK YOU to everyone else as a mission statement, with no regard for the fallout.

The old saw is that people get the politicians they deserve, and I’ll be crestfallen if Trump wins and proves this to be true once more. If you vote for him, you’re not making America great again. You are killing it. You are telling the world that America isn’t worth it. You are telling the world that all of our big talk about freedom and unity and ideals is just a load of shit, and that you would prefer a smoldering dystopia where freedom is just a flimsy cover for evildoing, led by a man who believes that strength is measured only in killing people. You are handing the most important job on Earth to Napoleon from Animal Farm. And you are revealing your breathtaking ignorance to everyone except for yourself. I can’t believe you can’t see this. I want you to see this. I wanna shine a big fucking light in your face and scream at you that Trump isn’t even qualified to be human, much less President. How are you gonna change the system if you elect some corrupt idiot who has no clue how to DO IT, huh? Can’t you see this? Haven’t you heard this asshole talk? THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?

But I already know that’s a futile effort. So fuck you, and fuck the GOP leaders who are too chickenshit to stand up to you. I’m not gonna wish deportation or imprisonment or some kind of fantastical hyperbolic death upon you. I’m not gonna ask for a wall to be built on the Mason-Dixon line. No no, I think you people deserve the EXACT same fate as Trump himself, and that is to lose, badly. That’s what should happen to you. You and your hamburger puppet leader deserve to live the rest of your days arm-in-arm in disgrace, branded as losers for eternity. Because that’s what you are.

I feel like this article is the whole reason why so many of them want him elected...because he's so hated by so many so he must be inciting change. Or some bullshit.

I hope you didn't cringe when you first saw you were tagged in a thread called "THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?" :-)

[silva]

They want him to win so they can brag about simply winning. This is not the fucking Super Bowl, you assholes!

[verycontrary247]

I came in here anticipating someone else being called out for saying something racist.

Half right.

[justemily]

SO much this. Every word!

[silva]

posted on FB.

I hope my dad reads it.

I should check my friend count.

[janegold]

Yes. There is NO reason anyone could come up with for voting for Trump that would be acceptable to me. Not a single fucking one. Fuck every single person who votes for him.

Oh, he'll incite change alright. Believe him. both the "spare change" variety when the dollar plummets on global exchange markets and the enduring disaster variety you get with a Robert Mugabe, Idi Amin, Pol Pot, Kim Jong Il, Andrew Jackson, etc.

Just a call out of Orange Muppet Hitler's favorite racists. (thank you, joss wheaton for my newest Trump nick name)

[atexan]

I need a cold shower and a cigarette. Damn.

Someone please insert a standing ovation gif for me.

[redshoejune]

Wow

[silva]

Saddest part, they won't read it. The voters he's speaking too.

[Deleted]

[juliachild]

Damn. This is awesome.

I really thought someone was being called out.

Yet somehow this will be Obama and/or Clinton's fault.

[AHappierHour]

Oh hell yay!! I'm sharing this and I don't care who I piss off!

[dexteroni]

Bravo! Just reading this was cathartic. I don't care if zero of his supporters read it. It won't change their minds anyway. But *I* needed to read it.

lol, I admit to wincing for a second but figured I should check the thread

[lo]

My H posted this on Facebook and at first I didn't see that he noted that he quoting someone else and was all, "Damn, H!! Hell yeah!!!"

Oops, lol. I mean he is "that guy" with political posts on Facebook, but this time I really thought he'd outdone himself, lol.

[Nonny]

I don't engage in political discussions with my family, because it always leads to badness, but occasionally my SIL forwards me conservative bullshit and she's definitely getting this as a reply if she sends me anything this year.

[chickadee77]

I love this so much. Just reading it was cathartic.

[cville]

REFRESHING.

[Deleted]

Bravo writer. Bravo.

This is amazing.

[whitemerlot]

I don't know anyone IRL who admits they are voting for Trump. I absolutely can't stand him. He makes my blood boil.
