No way. I've voted R or Libertarian in every election, from local to national. I am not thrilled with Clinton. Flammable, but I'm mainly voting for the first woman president more than voting for her.
I've historically leaned right but I'm voting for HRC. I'm working on DH. He won't vote for Cheeto Jesus but he's not a Hilary fan at all. Honestly, we both wish we could keep Obama more than anything.
I'm like the reverse of the cliche the older you are, the more conservative you lean. I feel like having children and life experience has made me more left leaning. I'm more fiscally conservative but I'm disgusted by the current state of the Republican Party, with Cheeto Jesus and Bevin here in Kentucky.
I was listening to a podcast where they discussed that older = more conservative really only applies to men. Because as they age, they get more and more power and want to keep it. As women go through life they face more and more discrimination and become more liberal.

I do feel the name is a bit disrespectful to Jesus. I don't care about being disrespectful to Trummp.
Plus I take issue with the implication that Drumpf in any way resembles the Messiah, even a cheeto version. That is giving him far, far too much credit.
niq I do wonder how completely this board has whittled out D.T. supporters. For instance a large percentage of the population is still against abortion but you never hear that POV on the boards. I can't decide if it's because it isn't vocalized or no longer exists.
(No need for people to jump in saying they don't WANT to hear these POV. I get that).
I think for the most part, this board leans way liberal. And because of that, the few non liberals tend to keep their mouths shut.
On the subject of the current R nominee, though - I would venture to guess that he doesn't count a lot of college educated, 25-45 year old women among his supporters anyways. (apologies if my generalization of the board makeup offends anyone, that's not my intention!)

I think there is definitely some whittling out/self-selection at play on this board, but I also think DT supporters are often silent IRL as well. I live in a very red state. I know a lot of Republicans, including many who are very politically active--big donors, party establishment types, people who worked in the Bush Administration, etc. And I have plenty of friends who are vocally anti-HRC. Yet I have yet to encounter a single person IRL who will admit that they intend to vote for DT. Inevitably some of them will, but no one is owning up to it.
