Bring it on Murica, I look forward to the next election, I will (hopefully) be a citizen and I get to vote, woohoo................?
It's a false equivalency.... the only things "equivalent" between the two candidates is that they are both Presidestial nominees.

After that your choice is a buffoon or a competent politician.

Every time Trump repeats a phrase for emphasis or asks an outlandish question/accusation then says "Is it true? I don't know." I dislike him a little bit more.

Democrats object to Chick-fil-A voter registration drive | Tampa Bay Times

Democrats object to Chick-fil-A voter registration drive

A controversy is clucking in Pinellas County over chicken sandwiches, sweet tea and voter registration cards.

Democrats of Pinellas County are crying foul over Pinellas County
Susan McGrath, leader of the Stonewall Democrats and head of the Pinellas Democratic Party, said the decision to use Chick-fil-A would be similar to a Democratic supervisor of elections holding the event at Planned Parenthood.

McGrath said the group supports the effort to register more voters, But she called the move partisan to hold the event at Chick-fil-A and said it might be more transparent to hold the voter drives at the Republican Party headquarters.

What exactly is the issue here? Is there some suggestion that people who frequent chick fil a are mostly republicans? Why on earth would that be?

Will there be any time in the future that America enters the rational, 21st century world? Where, for instance, citizens are registered to vote and it's not a partisan issue? You know, like in Australia or UK or Belgium or wherever?

They are notoriously anti-gay among the other extremely conservative/fundamentalist positions they hold. Are most of their customers Republican? I don't know. But people who are politically informed understand the messaging. FWIW, I think the Democrats should ignore the whole thing. It's obviously meant to antagonize the Dems and undermine their attempts to stop the voter suppression that's going on in all of the battle ground states.

I've heard of chick fil a but never actually seen one. I suspect the nearest branch is maybe 200 miles from here. Hell, they even closed down our local McDonald's it's so quiet around here...

Shrug, we like it. I think they use actual bits of chicken. Also young sir likes the little play areas. I don't like their political stance though.

I think they have more of a presence in the south/west but there may be somebody who comes along to correct me.

I don't boycott them but I rarely eat fast food so nobody would miss me anyway.

Yup our nearest is 211 miles away, Chicopee MA. The big city!

Ok, just checked on google maps, Chicopee is actually 283 miles from here. Looks like Chick Fil A's restaurant locator is in some alternate reality mode...
