If they manage to note that "telling it like it is" is pretty much a 'get out of jail free' card for bald, flat out racism.. there's hope

And I truly do worry if Hillary is the nominee on our side. There are a LOT of people
who dislike her so intensely, they would either not vote in the Presidential election
or hold their nose and vote for Trump. I worry about all the gerrymandering
and voter suppression laws/tactics of the Republicans--let alone the control
of voting machines--that would diminish the turnout of Dems, too.

So, until he is not the nominee, I remain concerned.

...I'm told large crowds aren't a measure of popularity any more. The hate speech however..has got to go.

while we have a pretty good idea of what will happen if he wins, I'm really worried about him putting out a challenge to his halfwitted minions if he loses. That challenge would be to create an atmosphere of violence.

he threatened riots if he isn't picked at the convention. I don't think he was kidding.

and his "concession speech" if that's what you want to call it, will be even worse if he loses the presidency.

I see a bundy type situation writ large.

trump supporter morons lashing out in every way possible because they didn't get their pony.
