that sounds good on paper but it would only work between people that don't vote and never voiced who they would vote.
I would while heartedly disagree. Especially with the American system. With the 2 party system we have to pick the person that most aligns with our ideals. I have friends that voted for Trump because the were business owners and he had better policies for them but they hated other things he stood for.
I have friends that voted for Biden because he has better policies for the lower/middle classes.
I have friends that voted for Biden because they just hated Trump that much.
I have friends that voted 3rd party because ef it "my vote doesn't matter".
Doesn't mean I can't be friends with them. Everyone has reasons for voting the way they do.
My issue with your statement is "never voiced who they would vote for". In my opinion it is the lack of ability to reasonably talk about why you are voting one way or another is a big issue with what is going on in the American political system.
Sounds like some people I wouldn't be friends with
Yeah, if you voted for trump a 2nd time that's a no go for me. If you voted for him once I'll need an explanation and how you have changed.
