“I think I’ll vote for Trump.”
“Sir? I asked if you want fries with that.”
“We’ve been slammed with all this politics stuff for years now, and I am sick of it.”
“Sorry but there is a line behind you…”
“Sure, Trump’s kinda crude, but he’s not your typical politician. And that’s good because I don’t want to think about politics all the time.”
“Well, one could easily argue that politics affects everything and that you should pay closer attention. But at the same time, since Trump’s descension, we have rapidly politicized the most mundane and previously apolitical things. Like counting. And the weather. And who gets disaster relief. And if he becomes president again, that will accelerate, if that’s possible. So by voting for Trump, you are inviting more politics into your daily life.”
“Hmm, well, yeah, but I really don’t know where Kuhmala [sic] stands on the issues. So I gotta go with Trump. It’ll all turn out fine in the end.”
“How do you figure that?”
“Because we always have fries. Am I right? In fact, I’ll have two. Gotta have some bag fries for the drive home.”
