Factually, that’s what he did during his time in office as well. I’m not sure what they thought had changed.

    The restaurant isn’t selling shrimp, bud. I don’t know what to tell ya.

    You’re not 5 years old. Pick what you want to eat, and stop complaining about it. It’s chicken or beef, what do you want? I mean, there’s ways around it? You could have cooked at home, there’s a reason people tell you to vote down ballot, pay attention to local races, bring up people through the system etc.

    All that is work. It takes time. And you have to do the dishes afterwards. You didn’t want to do any of that, (Honestly I don’t either) so we’re both eating at the same restaurant.

    And unfortunately, that means we get to eat what the restaurant is selling. Chicken or beef.

    Voting is the lowest possible effort you can make when participating in the political process. And not voting is as much a choice as voting for the options others present to you. You just chose to do whatever the group decides.

    You’re doing the equivalent of showing up at the end of a group project you skipped out on and expecting everyone to redo all their work because you don’t like either of the options presented.

    No amount of whining and moaning is going to change the fact that you’re still getting the same grade everyone else is getting. You are getting on everyone’s nerves though. Nobody likes a lazy entitled dude that ‘thinks’ he should be in charge but isn’t willing to actually do any work.

    You can choose not to vote. But if things go wrong, don’t claim you’re somehow above it all.

    It’s frankly ridiculous.

      There’s more on the menu than chicken or beef. I can order whatever I want. I could order Mickey Mouse or Vermin Love Supreme. Regardless of what was served to me, I ordered what I ordered. Just because everyone else is fine with dry ass chicken or tough chewy beef, doesn’t mean I’m okay with it.
