Trump is in 4th place -- behind Stein and Johnson -- with millenials.

I said it in the other thread, but this is astonishing. The candidate from one of the two major parties in the US has literally no traction with a whole age group. We aren't talking just high school dropouts. We aren't talking in college poor kids. We aren't talking bums who don't work for a living. We aren't talking just minorities. We are talking a whole generation of people, throughout all statuses that are soundly rejecting a major parties candidacy in place of a third and fourth party option. Thats incredible and the most shocking thing of this whole election.

Good thing Millennials will be too busy playing "Pokemon Go" to actually go vote.

Millennials are good at a couple of things. Taking selfies at protests to post on Facebook, and complaining online. Actually getting out to vote though? Not so good.

I love the irony of people on a fucking MMA message board discussing politics, shitting on either their own generation, or making their situation even worse by being a 35+ year old on an MMA message board discussing politics and ripping the generation after them playing pokemon go or taking selfies or complaining online. Oh yeah and despite the fact that youth vote has been doing nothing but increasing over the last few elections.

Raw footage of Hillary supporters. Exactly what you expect



2:08 for an eight year old sprayed in the face with pepper spray....and the media has the nerve to say that the Trump crowd is violent or dangerous

Are you angry at my extectations or that Trump's supporters fulfilled them?

Some one will tweet that there is a Pikachu at all polling stations, problem solved lol

I honestly wouldn't put it past either party to do this.

Donald Trump's effort to appeal to establishment Republicans suffered another setback on Monday as 50 senior GOP national security officials warned in a new letter that Trump would "risk our country’s national security and well-being."

Clearly part of the left wing media smear campaign. ...

As a 45 year old I resent/resemble this post. Of course I think crying about the next generation is as old/older than Cicero.

I honestly thought he waved his dick at someone, and it was caught on tape.

Not sure if I am disappointed or not.

I thought this was the most amazing thing I've ever seen. Then I found this:



EDIT: forget the Linkin Park vid I posted before this edit, this one has me seriously dying of laughter. I can't handle life right now.

Raw audio of Trump's supporters. Exactly what you expect.

Is anyone still surprised at how shit society can be? Especially in large groups of people?

Jesus... that is awful. Just awful.

Hit a little too close to home, did I?

not really? I'm 27, make a pretty good salary, have no more student loan debt/car debt/credit card debt, have a life, have played pokemon go as well as other video game, voted in 2012 and consciously chose to abstain in 2008, and voted in this years primaries. I'm just not a dbag who thinks that I should be belittling anyone's hobbies when I'm on an mma forum discussing politics. Actually, no. I don't belittle anyone's hobbies because I'm not a dbag in general.

Lol you weren't the one shitting on the younger gen and belittling their vote/opinion though. You're just a crabby old man
