    Why I Did NOT Vote for Trump in 2016

    Why I Did NOT Vote for Trump in 2016

    I couldn’t bring myself to vote for Trump in 2016, even though I came around to jumping on the Trump train in 2020. Why? I explain all my motivations and ethical struggles in this episode. I’ll note that I did NOT vote for Hillary Clinton either- that was never in the cards for me. But if it was Trump or staying out of it, I decided to stay out. Was that wrong? Listen to my reasoning, and let me know what you think by emailing fierybutpeaceful@gmail.com
