Polls show Trump has a huge lead among men; Hilary a large lead among women - 2016 will be the year of gender politics

I'm not American, but if I were I would sadly conclude that it was time to release the Trump and see what happens. Perhaps the Trump bomb will prove a disaster to all, perhaps we'll wish we never detonated it, but it looks like it's our only real option now (and the very fact that this is the case is annoying, and shows just how bankrupt our societies have become, that reason couldn't prevail closer to the mainstream). I am not a fan of Trump, I simply believe that there's a chance he'll turn out to be not too unpalatable while also dismantling aspects of the culture that desperately need dismantling - while I know for a fact that his opponent(s) will simply sink us all further into the mire we're currently drowning in.

Unleash the Trump, and may God have mercy on our souls.

While i believe hillary is a plauge on this planet, this isnt directly a mens rights issue; however since you self posted and proved topicality, all is good. Im calling this out simply because this is a prime example of how to get an off topic post, on topic, and MRM Relevant.

So glad that I am not American and don't have to make such a horrible decision between Trump and Hillary.

Trump is sucking up votes from anyone and everyone who's sick of the establishment and its sacred cows, and he knows it. He's floating any and all ideas that go against what is now "politically correct" (and keep in mind that what's PC changes depending on who's ascendant and influential - PC is not limited to any one part of the political spectrum, Christian fundamentalists, for example, encourage extreme PC if they can). What he'll actually do I don't know. He's a protest vote and he's turning that to his advantage. Clinton panders to the usual groups, Trump is pandering to the groups that usually get left out of the pandering. He's probably no more male-friendly than Clinton, but as I said in my other comment in this thread, the Americans may need to hold their noses, cross their fingers, pray they're not making an awful mistake, and elect Trump.

I don't understand how any Man could ever vote for Hillary, considering the hatred she has towards them.

Whom ever wins, you all lose.

Not gonna lie Trump scares me because it seems like he is going to run the US like a company and he is the newly elected CEO.

While his platform isnt sexist like Clinton's I get the feeling he will be classist (or elitist) and racist and favor the dollar over the people.

And while Clinton would likely exacerbate the issues affecting men (and probably create more) Trumo seems like he will let men linger in their current state.

I damn sure wouldnt say hes helping men unless by help you mean, "Not let things get worse for men but not help them get better either."

On the one hand - Trump's lack of experience and the enormous concerns with what he'll do in foreign policy makes him as president really scary. On the other hand, Hilary has a track record of just doing whatever the democrats think is popular at the time - she is the establishment - and she's a fraud each time she plays the woman card to distance herself from the establishment to voters.

I'm not happy with the decision, needless to say.

The 2000s will be the century of gender wars.

ExpendableOne · 2016-05-19T14:35:01+00:00

Both are incredibly chauvinistic and yet, as much as I dislike Trump, he is still considerably less sexist than Clinton.

I'll be voting for Hillary. I think she'll do some bad stuff for men, but I also think Trump is an authoritarian who, among other things, threatens to crack down on a free press, wants to murder innocent people intentionally as a foreign policy, has said bigoted shit against various groups, praises Putin and the Tiananmen Square massacre, is anti-vaccines, is as corrupt as anyone in DC, and generally lacks the temperament to be President.

As for men...I don't think he's all that great. He's the guy who ran a full page ad calling for the death penalty for the Central Park Five, underage kids who were falsely accused of rape, and ended up in prison for over a decade.

"Women are the primary victims of war" is stupid, but not as bad as the shit I listed above.

EDIT: I should add, I think that one day soon there will be a candidate who's really pro-gender equality. I don't know what party. But not only is it not Trump, his bad shit will end up tainting groups that support him. Fairly or not, if MRAs are seen as pro-Trump then they'll be seen as pro-everything he does, and years from now when he's out of the picture it'll be a reason to ignore them.
