My wife voted 3rd party in the last election and was hesitant to do otherwise this year, and I’m a conservative who voted Democrat in the last election. Over the last four years I saw the egregious error that I made and vowed to never be duped again. My wife was a lot harder to sway, but today, after a lot of convincing, she voted for Trump and I couldn’t be happier! Add two more Trump votes that weren’t here last election!

Congratulations! Don't believe the polls! The polls are purposely deceptive to make us feel hopeless. They're all wrong!!!!

It felt great waking out together knowing we did our part to help re-elect GEOTUS!

I am so confused by people like you. I'm glad you realize your mistake but how in earth can you call yourself a conservative and vote for Hillary?

I get that maybe Trump turned you off, but you could have written anyone else in or simply not voted. What the hell led you to make the decision that voting against everything you stood for was better than what you knew about Trump at the time?

I’ll do my best to explain. I was really blind to politics, I considered myself a conservative in values but I was naive to how corrupt the system and the media was, I believed what I was told by the MSM about Trump, but right after the election I kept seeing one thing after another that opened my eyes and made me realize I need to be better about finding out what the truth really was, I felt like a complete idiot, and have been on a war path ever since, maybe I was young, maybe I was apathetic before, but not anymore

Good answer, I was thinking the same thing about how you could be a conservative and vote for the devil in 2016.

What’s sad is how long it took to realize my mistake after the 2016 election, it took almost no time after Trump was elected to see the error, they were so transparent after his inauguration, I wish I knew then what I know now, I was so blind! I will never let anyone pull the wool over my eyes like that again, biggest mistake of my entire life was voting Hilary without looking into the facts myself and letting the MSM dictate my worldview, they are all crooks and hypocrites, My conscience is at ease now knowing I did what is right in the most crucial election in US history

The only way it implodes is after Trump wins crazy left wing radicals decide to burn it down, which they have been doing for months now anyways, I’m not a fan of being held hostage by left wing ideologues

My wife voted 3rd party last year and was hesitant to do otherwise this year, and I’m a conservative who voted Democrat.

You're... a conservative, and you voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016, do I have that right?

No shame here, glad you've seen the error of your ways that's great. I'm just curious. We've got a lot of ex leftists here who voted for leftists and then woke up. But I can't quite understand how you can be a conservative and vote for Crooked, what's the thinking there?

For some conservatives Trump was just too much(system shock)the first time around but yea the Hillary vote was the craziest part of this story for me too.

You made a mistake - we all do, all the time. Don't fret over it, just try to apply the lesson to the future.

Welcome aboard, to you and your wife.

The MSM really did a number on me, I didn’t realize I had been brainwashed about Trump leading up to the election until it was too late

Conservative + Hillary vote does not compute.

J.MaGerkin2020 [S] 2 points ago +2 / -0

Trust me, It didn’t compute for me either, I was a totally uninformed + brain washed individual, I was told that everything would be destroyed if Trump got elected. . . I believed it four years ago, and then I saw how every single fact got twisted, every single quote came without context, and now I have people questioning me? Give me a break, I’m having my eyes opened, so fuck off if you don’t believe me, I’ve been questioned non stop, I Voted Trump today and I’m on a train that doesn’t have any brakes
