43. You can have as much contempt for me as you want. That is your choice too.

I think that the Democratic party is clearly superior to the Republican party. If that makes you want to scorn me, so be it. I'm proud of it. Look at what the Dems stand for, and look at what the GOP stands for. Look at Obama/Hillary, then look at Trump, and even before Trump, the rest of them, the tea party, all that. Look issue by issue. Abortion, LGBT, environment, labor, taxes, everything. Every single issue. I can't think of one where the GOP is better. Can you?

So yeah, have your contempt, if that's what you like. Having political views means some people are going to scorn you for them. I don't know your politics, it seems to be mostly an anti-Hillary vendetta, but whatever they are, be they right left or center, you are welcome to your contempt.
