No, like, I’m not. Literally or implicitly.

If I wanted to vote for Trump, I’d vote for my Trump. Which by the way, I have every single right to do, as an American citizen.

But I’m not voting for him. I’m voting for Jill Stein. I respect your right to vote for whoever you want to, please respect mine.

Oh, I will, thank you! I respect and support your right to vote for who you want to as well.

And that photo has been around a long time, and doesn’t bother me at all. It does nothing to change my mind.

Plus, it’s already been covered and addressed in a newsweek article:

I’m still happy and proud to vote for her. :).

And for the record, I don’t hate Russia as much as people in this community do. I know that fact may wind some people up, but it’s the truth. We are still a country based on freedoms of opinion, and there is no law that says I HAVE to hate Russia or it’s people.
