Some people, fortunately, put their country over their pride.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

After that Brexit referendum happened the way it did... I'm tending to think that Napo may be right. Trump may win.
Why?
Because it seems the republicans are way way more passionate about politics than the others.
The republicans will go out there and vote. En masse.
As for the others... some will vote... some will rebel against the establishment by not voting, thus granting a win to the die-hard voters.
Even I have heard Obama urging people to vote... who do you think he's talking to?

I am very concerned Trump will win. Trump has made Pennsylvania competitive again and is tied in most of the swing states without even trying. He has no 'ground game' and he's catching up in in th Real Clear Politics average of national polls. Clinton is only ahead nationally by an average of 4%-5% (depending on which cart you look a, that is that two there and four candidate polling).
We know there is a 'shy Trump' phenomenon, that is people too ashamed to admit that they like Trump, too. Yet there seems to be this stubborn complacency from people who worship Hilary. I keep warning about Trump but these people may only 'wake-up' once Donald is in the Oval Office and blame everyone but Hilary. Hilary is at a real risk of losing and not the fault of Sanders or his supporters. So-callexld Bernie Bros are a fiction perpetuated by pro-Clibton media and have been debunked.
