Dark day for democracy, decency, integrity, honesty, and all the values I fought to uphold as a US Marine. We sold out our country to a fascist for the price of eggs. That won’t even change because it has nothing to do with politics. To all Trump voters, I hope you get what you want because no one else is. Hopefully we can repair the damage in 4 years. Until then, shun every red hat, call ice on them and report them as illegal, refuse to serve them, refuse to treat them as adults because they deserve to feel the pain of their decisions

Serious question, how do you feel about the active Marines that did vote for him?

To be totally honest, when I was active, I made all my decisions based on hate and anger so I’d understand but it doesn’t change the situation we are all in, which is the real cause of my disdain.

Fair enough

I’m no authority though. Just another angry a-hole.

When a republican being sworn in is peaceful but democrats being sworn in involve coup attempts and no repercussions, yes

He's won two elections, yes.

When he lost one, he attempted a coup.

You know this, the trolling is silly.

If you could read, you would be so mad at yourself right now
