Why not research the platforms of those running for the offices you're voting for and choose the ones who most align with your perspective? Who gives a shit if the candidate has an R, D, or I next to their name?

It's like Hongkongphooey said, voting straight Republican is a repudiation of the direction the DNC has taken. Voting Democrat will not send the message, and voting for a third party can have the unintended effect of getting a Democrat elected anyways and obviously that will not send a message either.

I usually do this. This year it was such bullshit getting any sort of information on candidates I basically voted red down the way. Don't like the Republicans and think they are retarded but when Dems are doing stupid shit like refusing to fucking debate their opponents because they are afraid they'll lose I can't in good faith vote for that weak ass nonsense even if I think their opponents is gonna be a massive failure. At least they'll be a massive failure that isn't a fucking pussy.

Trump has a great deal wrong with him and the people that worship the ground he walks on are a bunch of retarded idiots, but give him his due he does talk crap very well and I love seeing career politicians and journalists having to deal with that shit. Granted I'd be far happier if Trump was put into position as Twitter lord or just a marketing head of the republican party and not in a position where he actually gets to call the shots and make policy, but the whole system is so fucked now you basically can win just by being a dick and the Dems are still whining about it like little fag babies.

President Camacho ya'll, this not sure guy he's gonna fix all the problems, give the electrolytes plants crave. Shits gonna get real.
