The worst candidate to ever run, beginning with Boy george, is succeeded 4 years later by an even worse one? I'm speaking strictly about the candidates the RW has vomited up. McCain. rMoney. Now drumpf.

If this doesn't speak directly to a major political party, if not the country itself, swirling the drain, I can't imagine what else would.

they'll nominate someone who is about as RW as he is (but not as loud or dumb) in 2020, or if they'll find someone to out-crazy him and keep the pattern going. He'll be a tough act to follow for the next GOP circus nominee.

With the pugs general inability to learn from their mistakes, and using the history of the past 20-30 years as a prediction tool, they'll manage to find some wacko worse than drumpf.

4. Are major news sources giving this any air time?

Sep 2016

Older folks still watch the evening newscasts, it might be their
only source of news.

Do viewers of the Fox News Bubble even know any of this is happening?

That is the problem. Insularity. Essentially private news sources that
control access to large segments of the population's minds.

...is that - in spite of it all - this mother fucker is still neck-and-neck with Hillary in the polls. Trump should be polling at 28% - if that. But, the awesome Republican voters are still lining up behind this guy like he's a serious candidate.

His list of problems makes Hillary's trivial missteps miniscule by comparison. Yet, those double-standard Republican mother fuckers are giving him a pass on everything and are giving Hillary quarter on nothing.

As I've said before - it's not Trump that's the problem. It's Trump supporters.

This country is in for a "major correction" as the conservative side of the land takes on this new dogma of "we have to control everything, or nothing will get done".

Only 21% of Republicans (or was it Trump voters) polled said they would "accept" the result of the election if Hillary won. That means over 75% won't accept a Hillary victory. What does that mean...that they won't obey any new laws...that there'll be armed rebellion...there'll be a secession movement...what?

We should be worried regardless of the outcome of the election.

Four more years of Congressional obstructionism. They'll simply switch "the black guy" with "that woman" in all their excuses for inaction and stonewalling.

They have pretty much rigged everything else, why not the polls?
MSM polls are most certainly not reliable.

Vagina IS expensive - for tRump. Many other men, who treat women as equals, and respect women can get it for free! A man who flashes money around, acting like it can buy anything, well, that is what he gets - a woman who puts a price on her "assets".

15. also this: Trump accused of raping a 13 y.o. girl

Tying her down, slapping her and telling her she or family would be killed if she told.

Nice presidential candidate.

https://www.rt.com/usa/357042-trump-child-rapist-allegation/

snip: While not part of the mainstream media conversation, Trump has been dogged from the fringes of his own party and beyond by rumors that he sexually abused minors, which he denies.

A lawsuit was filed against the businessman accusing him of repeatedly raping the 13-year-old girl in 1994.

According to the suit, the assaults took place at parties hosted at the Upper East Side apartment of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, owner of the infamous 'Lolita Express' private plane.

The victim says she was lured to the parties with promises of a modeling career, where she was then assaulted in a “savage” manner.

Trump allegedly tied her to the bed and slapped her across the face as she begged him to stop.

“Immediately following this rape, Defendant Trump threatened me that, were I ever to reveal any of the details of Defendant Trump’s sexual and physical abuse of me, my family and I would be physically harmed if not killed,” she stated in an affidavit.

The plaintiff previously filed a case against Trump in Los Angeles, which was dismissed.
