Fuck it. I'm having a lot of trouble coming up with any way to defend the right's behavior this whole election cycle. You all win.

I will say, the fact that Trump's tax plan would save me over $10k next year but I'm still not voting for him is a first for me. I've never voted solely principle over wallet before.

w00t! Hilldawg saves me $300. My principles and my wallet align.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I remember when GWB would win all the "guy you'd rather have a beer with" polls, despite his well-documented fight with alcoholism. What's good for the gander is good for the goose.

Trump saves me 1k. Nada for Hillary. I'm not sure $1000 is worth armageddon. I could get a Nintendo Switch though.
