none of that may matter ... Mr Trump's appeal has nothing to do with intellect or knowledge or experience ... a yuuuuuge chunk of Americans are just too frakking ignorant to make rational choices

regardless of the deep political chasm separating to two major parties, we have a choice between a {and not to be politically correct Mr Trump] an inept moron and a journeyperson politician who has more than enough "combat" ribbons to demonstrate the experience necessary to do the job ... it will not be a rational choice for many

ignorance is the enemy
without equality there is no liberty
America can survive bad policy, but not destruction of our Democratic institutions
