You guys are all gonna ruin the forum with daily political talk. Shoot around some PMs of your favorite hangouts to debate this stuff where its relevant. My hands aren't clean but this is honestly going to push people away. Bust some chops and argue about something else. There's plenty of hate brewed up that can be aimed at other things besides politics and still make for a lively conversation.
