and why doesn’t everybody vote? I don’t understand why it isn’t mandatory i think everyone should have to, men, women, and children. If you can read the ballot, you should be able to vote. I know my nephew wouldn’t have voted for trump and he’s 10!

      Dude what is your point here?

      My son is 12. Can read. You think he has the mental capacity to do his own research and vote on a fucking ballot over national issues that he doesn’t even realize are happening around him?

        I don’t think most adults have that capacity, but doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

      God no, most people probably shouldn’t, in fact. The average person is way to stupid and uninformed to lead their own life much less the lives of literally everyone else.
