The scary part is, it's not only dumb and dumber voting for rightwingers. Hate conquers all. There are plenty of people who love to hate and to kick down on others.

There's something called social intelligence. Very many are in the low digits in this department. I can't barf as much as I have been disillusioned by humanity these last two years. The contents of a toilet bowl is more appealing than rightwingers.

For the record I've thought from the start he would win.

But...

It's still a horrible, horrible prospect.

Its America, home of the dumb, of course he can win.

At the moment, hatred sells extremely well in many regions of the world. He could win virtually everywhere, using the right scapegoats.

It's always the same sick game. Give the scum someone to kick, tell them they're special for some reason, promise them everything will be fine and dandy if a particular group is removed from society and fuck them over in the meantime. Oh, and don't forget to wave the flag of your choice. Nationalism raises it's turdhead again, after all.

God I hope not. Appologies to Christians for taking the lord's name in vain. If I thought taking his name in earnest would help, I would.

I'm rather to the right of most posters here. I have voted for republican candidates. But #nevertrump. Never ever, ever.

Ihave n
I have never really like or trust Hillary (I did like Bill).  However even if I agree with Trump on number of things, he scares the crap out me.  It is going to be a tough voting I think. 

I do think that part of the problems with the political system in the U.S. right now, is that you mostly get the extremes voting in the primaries.  You therefore get a candidate who represents those extremes and the moderate voter is screwed.

I'm hoping as candidates drop out, that trump loses his favor..... I don't see many in the middle voting for him.
