There is no "we" or "us", there is just Trump modeling his campaign after Hitler and Mussolini. You think it can't happen here? Then you are fools.
With the electoral college it doesn't really matter how I vote. I live in a very blue state. Trump is not going to win my state so it does me no good to vote for Clinton so I might as well use my vote to help develop a third party.

Also, even if there were no electoral college, I would still vote for Johnson. I don't like Trump and I think he will be a shitty president. I don't know about Clinton. Maybe she would be good and maybe she would be terrible. That said, I have always said that if you want change sometimes you have to embrace the madness. Trump is that madness. Even if he sucks perhaps there will be a lesson learned in all of this from both parties.

We as a nation are stronger than one president. Trump is not Hitler, no matter how much the internet wants it to be so. If Trump is elected and he sucks, we will survive and hopefully we be wiser for it. Few things in this world are better teachers than a punch to the face.
