This is why Donald Trump is so dangerous........

[UCmeNdc]

Donald Trump only cares about himself and how he can make a deal. Donald does not care who he hurts in making a deal as long as he gets what he wants. He has made a living of cheating people out of their valuables. Donald sees nothing wrong in making a deal with the Russians. He asks for the Russian intelligence services to spy on his opponent and the US State department. He thinks why not? He makes the offer under table to give Putin Crimea if the Donald is elected.

Do you really want this immature, incompetent, idiot anywhere near the US intelligence organizations?



Buried among Trump’s strange statements in Miami was his pronouncement that he would consider recognizing Crimea as Russian territory. The United States and the European Union opposed Putin’s militarized land grab of this part of Ukraine and imposed economic sanctions on Russian banks. So not only did Trump signal that he welcomed help from the Russians, he told them exactly what they would get from sabotaging the campaign of his opponent. Dangerous deal.—

1. Another thing that makes him dangerous is that a sizable percentage of American voters

think he is fit to be President.

2. True

It's unbelievable. What do they see in the man?

The same people thought Bush was so great.

Don't they resent being "burned" by incompetent so called leaders?

[grubbs]

3. But they don't believe that they are being burned

They blame liberals for the failings of their leaders.

4. Many people are hurting badly

People who can't find a job, live in dire circumstances, get the short end of the stick with regard to criminal justice--they are desperate and ready to try something different because the current system isn't working for them.

5. There are also a lot of assholes in this country

Hate to be unsympathetic, but I know people whose lives are perfectly fine and they think Trump is the greatest. They are assholes coming out of the woodwork.

[dragonlady]

7. Both explanations are true

Probably others as well.

6. Those people who think he's fit to be President are authoritarian follwers

Authoritarians are by definition bullies and authoritarian followers are just like Traitor Trump: bullies and cowards prone to kissing the asses of bully-boy excuses for leaders while seeking, and taking their anger out on, scapegoats who have nothing to do with their dissatisfaction.

Authoritarian followers will follow their chosen leader to Hell itself if they were told to do so. And that's what the repukes have become.
