The electoral math doesn't favor his chances, and he has alienated a majority of women and the fastest growing ethnic demographic in this country, Latinos -- not to mention serious, sane people who recognize a smokescreen when they see one. He only wins somehow by default, if the Democrats prove to be even more inept than I already suspect them to be. There just aren't enough angry white guys to carry him through. Some of us are angry but haven't yet lost our fucking minds.
The man is intellectually more incurious than George W. Bush ever was. He doesn't seem to understand anything about political policy process. He has offered zero policy substance on anything and thinks sound bites and twitter feeds represent intellectual discourse. He's a narcissist, a liar, a self-aggrandizing blowhard, a bully, and quite possibly a sociopath. And despite his alleged prowess as a negotiator, in the unlikely event he makes it to the White House, he will discover very quickly that the world of Manhattan real estate and Jersey casinos is downright parochial in comparison to the stage upon which he will be forced to act. He imagines himself a Colossus, standing astride the globe, everyone in awe of him. He has no idea of the types of people with whom he will have to negotiate and come to terms. He won't have his daddy's old connections or local politicians whose campaigns he's greased to help smooth his way. And tough? Just wait until he gets a load of some of the players from the Middle East or China.
Anyway, why do you care? Aren't you a Brexit supporter? What -- you need us to fuck up as badly as you Brits did to make you feel better? Or are you one of the U.K.'s equivalents of the American Bubba a.k.a. Trump supporter: gullible, xenophobic, ignorant as fuck, and proud of it?
1. Yes, a proud Brexit supporter.
2. We didn't fuck up.
3. Because it annoys assholes like you.
