It's not a "we disagree on this or that policy" kind of discussion.

It's more "you are obviously an idiot and shouldn't be allowed an opinion or vote", kind of attitude.

IIRC, we went through the same thing in 2008.

A whole lot of bitterness and some of it's still there today it seems.

And of course, if any candidate in any race doesn't win, it will be because of all the "Right Wing Gun Humpers" in the Gungeon.
