1. and stupid people

Stupidity is global

[syringis]

3. Hello Superpatriotman

Indeed. Stupidity is the most common "good" in the world.

We do have our fair bunch here too.

[delisen]

2. ...and Russia is full of clever people who know

how to get Americans to vote against their own self interests

[syringis]

4. Hello Delisen

Trump is a "holy gift" for anyone whose willing to harm America...

They only have to sit comfortably with some pop corn and beer and watch...

No expenses, no headaches searching the best way to infiltrate strategic and sensitive departments...

Trump is the ultimate butler...he is serving them the country on a gold plate.

5. Republicans have been doing that for generations

since Nixon started modern Identity Politics with his Southern Strategy

[Ohiya]

6. It just boggles the mind!

[Sanity Claws]

7. I am amazed at how creative and brilliant so many people are

The internet let me see videos, blogs, etc. from people whose voice and vision would never have been heard or seen before.

But then I hear people say so many stupid, willfully ignorant things on the internet.

I don't want the latter group affect how I view the public as a whole but they do.

8. Quote from Agent K in "Men in Black:"

"A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it."

That's why (or at least partly so) the Orange Shitgibbon is President.

9. More and more of them will find opportunities to work in other countries..

on the important issues the World faces while trump eats burgers and fries.

10. Hello Tikki

I wonder how history will look at him.

I can't remember any leader as unfit, unprepared, desastrous, awful, stupid, dangerous, unreliable,... as Trump, anywhere in the free world history.

12. There are republican's in the US that believe nobody....

really knows how to make electricity or how it works. These republicans
don't really want to know about much. Maybe they're curious about who
will win the singing and dancing shows.

I hope all the curious smart people find a place where they can do great things. They are not and will not be appreciated any time soon in trump's America.

11. The MBAs in my room believe in some incredibly stupid shit.

"Smart" doesn't have as much to do with Schtroumpf as "hate" did. Remember that a great number of upper-middle to rich college educated assholes thought this was a great idea.

People get their religion from their politics.

13. No joke!

Jimmy Carter was a nuclear engineer, Bill Clinton was a Rhodes scholar and Barack Obama was a constitutional scholar - and now we have Trump???

[syringis]

14. Please...

...forgive me, I'll go for

Maybe Americans got tired of educated people ?

More seriously, it boggles the mind.

[Rhiannon12866]

15. Every time I see him - and I think of the intelligent presidents we have known

Who worked to make life better for the American people - and for peace in the world - I find it unbelievable. It really does boggle the mind.

[wishstar]

16. So pathetic that instead of Al Gore and Hillary Clinton, we got GWB and DJT

and when we got someone as intelligent, thoughtful and dignified as Barack Obama, he was shamefully undermined and maligned and his accomplishments stripped away as fast as possible.

[misanthrope]

17. "Full?" Not so much.

America has a lot of people with the capacity to use their minds, reason and critical thought far better than they do but they are content living in another manner. The result is that a lot of Americans create a far worse reality for themselves and those around them.
