    Noone with a brain watch his rallies and think “yeah thats the candidate i want to vote for”.

    He rambles utter nonsense, cant even form real sentences, talks about himself a lot and just says democrats are the worst.

    It’s absolutely mind-boggling to me that anyone would vote for him. It’s a cult.

      Hear the Jonhstown tapes. While we do believe some of these people were forced to drink poison, there definetly were people who were okay with a ‘revolutionary suicide’ rhetoric. And these true believers have no problem wishing death on others as well.

      Trump is not there yet, but he’s edging on that.

        He’s said he may have to use the military on his political opponents. That’s definitely not not that.

      Unfortunately according to the polls, about half of registered voters are going to vote for him. It’s mind boggling. Out of all the people on the planet to choose from, they choose this guy? This fucking guy?!

        Well, he’s expected to win about half of the EC. Less than half of people are expected to vote for him. Same problem, but this is more frustrating.
