/Damn it, these debates have led me to fall hard of the wagon of doom and gloom based entertainment. I guess other's would call it news but it all seems so fictional at this point that I see it as nothing more than a choose your own adventure thriller, especially since I despise both options that are being crammed down our throats.
As a third party voter that has voted third party more than once, I have a very cynical side to me that enjoys the bad news that is coming out of both camps in hopes that something will stick to make both candidates unelectable to finally at least open up the discussion of a third party choice.
Another cynical observation that I've made about myself is that I find myself rooting for Trump a little more, not that I want him to win but I like that every bit of bad news leads to a negative reaction from people where with Hillary everyone seems to sell her spin no matter how bad the news and feel that this is very telling of how either presidency will play out depending on who wins.
Either way, the next four years are going to suck when it comes to presidential news. With Trump, I see lots of feet dragging and people from both sides of the spectrum calling him out on any wackiness that is being sold to us but what scares me more is Hillary continuing this Obama treatment where we are given social deals to shut us up while we have to deal with bait and switch politics when it comes to the policies that affect the world. Only with Obama, he's likable as a human being so I get when people come to his defense.
Again, I'm not pro-Trump and hate being a part of a society with a limited view of freedom of choice as if not A then B and C also equals B despite that not actually being the true case. I'm not even C, I'm D which seems to be the only option with a liberal platform and seems to be the only candidate getting absolutely no coverage. If you can't do the math to figure out who I am talking about then this entire paragraph probably make no sense to you either.
Alright, sorry to go political again. It's just impossible not to have an opinion about this election and there are so few people that share my opinion that I have to stop biting my tongue from time to time. So there you have it.
Talk to you tomorrow,
