zizek said that to be provocative.

He said he would vote for Trump in order to communicate to people that things are seriously wrong with their political system.

He views the rise of Trump as final proof of the failure of pro-captalist liberalism.

I voted for Bernie Sanders because I live in California and it didn't matter either way.

He should have won.

Things would be so much better if he did.

>>9015088
voted for trump because i want originalists on the supreme court and absolutely abhor living constitutionalists

also i want to see all laws enforced regardless of partisanship, which i think Trump will do where Obama and Hillary would nullify certain laws

>>9015188
This.

>>9015186

Trump. I will admit that my reasons had nothing to do with Trump himself, nothing he could possibly do personally would have greater consequences than a Supreme Court stacked by leftists. My personal opinion is that the ideal makeup of the Federal Government is this:

SCOTUS: Republican
Executive: Democrat
Senate: Even Split/Minor Democrat Lead
House: Republican

In these conditions the country seems to do best. That is a personal observation however. One thing that must never be allowed to happen is a Democrat mastery in the SCOTUS or a Republican 3/4ths majority in the Senate or the country will simply implode.

I voted for Son Goku, even though I don't know any of his positions.

I voted for Clinton because Trump is an actual stupid person. He doesn't know what he's going to do on many issues, and spouts off about really divisive and potentially harmful shit like nuclear weapons without really knowing what he's talking about. He's an SJW inflaming meme.
I thought Clinton would be a better president and hoped an actual good republican candidate would come along in 4 years.
I really don't like Clinton and on election night was almost happy Trump had won, it was such a crazy idea.
That quickly faded back to wishing for pneumonia lady.

every writer and entertainer you like (besides psychos) would vote for hillary/bernard. you are not a real person

I didn't vote because my state votes blue no matter what. I was pleased that Trump won and the media got completely humiliated.

If there were any proper critiques of Trump during the election then I didn't see any. The hysteria overshadowed everything else.

I didn't vote because my state overwhelmingly votes blue

I didn't like Clinton, but I didn't like Trump very much either, he sounded like a bullshitter. Like a con man trying to sell you something with fake confidence, bravado, and vague promises.

Double goddammit. You a redneck from oildale you faggot?

>>9015088
Didn't vote, would have voted for Bernie and did so in the primaries.

>>9015088
I didn't vote. I live in one of the most solid blue states in the country and my vote would not have made even an inkling of a differences

Don't get me wrong. I'm not a drumphtard, and would have wept tears of joy if that bald hutt of a cheeto got strangled to death by Carrie Fischer, but I wasn't so keen on hillary either. Maybe the propoganda got to me

I voted Trump.

>>9015214
I'd let the world burn just to spite that bitchy face of hers. Don't you just want to violently grab hold of her, reminding her that she is mortal flesh and bone

>all these bernbots

you need to read economics books (the austrian variety)

voted for neither. lost almost all faith in our hallowed institutions. waiting to vote for populist leftists.

>>9015257
ah, but it's our ai overlords we're really waiting for.

>>9015088

No one. Neither are leaders of the revolution.

All that tells me is that people who entertain for a living don't like competition. Besides, I like John C. Wright.

>le im incapable of independent thought

Why should I care what writers or entertainers have to say, especially the latter? You realize your political opinion weighs as much as anyone else's, right?

Voted for Trump. He will either fuck up terribly and accelerate the present political system toward its inevitable death, or he really will make America great again. That said, the more and more I've privately rallied against modern liberals, the more I find myself championing traditionalist values. The Left are too caught up in identity politics to be /lit/, anyway. True ideals, respect for prosperity and traditions is /lit/. Greatness is /lit/.

>>9015141
Nice pussy, bro.

>>9015281

The left is thriving and identity politics is a miniscule percentage. You are very much incorrect. Trump is just another carefully constructed tool of the establishment and nothing he does will ever benefit the common man. He might sign a few executive orders, he may give powerful, long speeches, he might look personable because there is a picture of him supposedly eating McDonald's but at heart he is part of the bourgeois class and thinking he will lead the country in the right direction and give the average person a better life is comedic wishful thinking. There is so much wrong with this. For one, his children running his multi billion dollar brand. Can anyone here say conflict of interest? The class of people in charge in your country recognize the growing frustration and anger among the lower classes and Trump was like giving a sick kid a dose of cough syrup. NOTHING will change, America will never be great again (debatable whether it was in the first place). Don't be a fool.
