The problem with this election is that it is not even possible to extract from the orange madman's ramblings, any sort of policy agenda. Oh, yeah, "we'll build a wall and make Mexico pay for it".

Make that "serious policy agenda".

This guy has been all over the map, and that is a direct function of his seriously deranged mental process.

The only "issue" in this election is whether we are going to give the nuclear launch codes to an obvious lunatic. Or not.

"Issues" flew out the window when the GOP nominated this malevolent cretin.

It's about a war over the very soul of our nation. On one side you have logic, justice and rational thinking. On the other side you have fear, science denial and hatred.

IDK about you, but I'm an avid HRC supporter and have been from the getgo. But this time, we have to vote for her to preserve the existence of the United States and constitutional democracy from enemies both foreign and domestic, namely Russia, Trump, and the Teabaggers.
