the fact that you wouldn’t be friends with a conservative really shows how mature you are, you shouldn’t based your friendships on somebody’s political value.

The lady in pink was so great in this, she stayed so humble and empathetic

@Mostdeadly_

The moderator is supposed to be neutral not taking sides and showing her bias

As a Latino, I voted for trump, it pains me to hear other conservatives miss the mark every time they are asked why they voted for Donald Trump. The fact is that in 2016 Trump offered an econ plan that made it harder and more expensive for companies to export jobs via import taxes and tariffs. (But no promise of a minimum wage) vs Clinton who's econ plan was the TPP which was a proposed free trade agreement which would have made it considerably cheaper and easier for companies to export jobs and inport products and to further push these companies to do so (promised a higher minimum wage). So waying the options i voted for the guy who promised to keep jobs here.
