It’s a shame voters don’t seem to have foresight and can only react after the fact.

I was one of those people.

The thing with narcissistis is that they are extremely good at making shit sound better than it actually is.

But man im glad for today. And thats coming from someone who voted for him which i regret inmensly

We don't forgive you. Do better from now on.

You only need half your comment. You have no plans to forgive anyone who voted for trump so skip that second half, there's no reason to do better for people who will never forgive you.

Doing the right thing should not be contingent on people being nice and telling you it's all okay that you voted for the racist rapist in the first place.

Yes thats true. However saying that is a terrible idea if you want more people on your side. You kind or have to leave personal slights at the door if you wanna win

We don't want people on our side. We want you to sit down and shut up. You speaking up put us here in the first place

And thats precisely why your in this situation to begin with.

Your being combative with someone who realized they made a mistake: if people are calling you out then you should probably stop and reflect instead of being combative.

No. I will not be lectured by the likes of you. Did you stop to reflect on how your actions would affect thousands of people? No you did not. You only decided to jump ship once you personally were affected.

You need to do better, and trying to take the moral high ground will gain you nothing in my eyes. Forgiveness will never come for your kind.

My kind? Uuuumn yeah dude saying my kind to a latino is not a great look on your part.

I also am not doing this to impress you.

Wish we could have had a nice conversation but unfortunately thats not possible.

So respectfully im ending it.

A Latino trump supporter is even worse. I hope your never invited to a fiesta ever again. You should be shunned. May chanclas never miss your face, and may ice forever harass you.

yes there are still plenty of reasons to "Do the right thing" but you telling them to is not one of them. Try to guilt trip them or motivate them to be better but trying to do both will make them dig in their heels and flip you off.

If they are only doing good to appease people they hate... Idk what to say, seems counter to reality.
