If you feel that you were sent into a war under false pretences then no but perhaps make your protest known.
Whatever you decide as long as your comfortable wth your reasons you'll be honest with yourself.
Everyone should vote so you get your say in our govt. the reason some elections don't go your way is cause people decide "someone else will do it" but in reality very few Americans vote, which means the ones who do get more say and of those who vote are mostly older individuals not the citizens heading to the future, this needs to change.

Wallace asked a Trump aide:". . . before an impeachment trial, all senators have to raise their right hand and take an oath to do impartial justice. How impartial can it be when McConnell says, quote, he is taking his 'cues' from the White House?"https://twitter.com/FoxNewsSunday/statu...

We elect them, that is kind of like hiring them. If you hire someone, you can decide what they get paid. Is there a reason we cannot do this?This is just one of the things I am wondering about.I think about too much to put it on one page.
