How many different ways can Trump divide the country? Men/women; blacks/whites; rich/poor; rural/urban; ultra-conservatives/normals...
A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.
Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

Trump’s ‘Rigged Election’ Poll Watchdogs Could End Up in JailRob Garver The Fiscal Times October 17, 2016 Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has spent much of the last several days cementing in the minds of his supporters the idea that the presidential election on November 8 is on the verge of being stolen from him by a “rigged” system. He’s encouraged his supporters to turn out at polling sites where they suspect election fraud might take place in order to fight back against the shadowy cabal he insists stands between him and the White House.
In a widely read story published by the Boston Globe on Saturday, one Trump supporter said he planned to do just that.
“Trump said to watch your precincts. I’m going to go, for sure,” Steve Webb told reporters Matt Viser and Tracy Jan. “I’ll look for . . . well, it’s called racial profiling. Mexicans. Syrians. People who can’t speak American.... I’m going to go right up behind them. I’ll do everything legally. I want to see if they are accountable. I’m not going to do anything illegal. I’m going to make them a little bit nervous.”
The problem is that pretty much everything Webb describes there is completely illegal. More

Unfortunately Pennsylvania still lets anybody walk into a poll and question a voter's credentials to vote. In past elections such people have done just that and led to massive tie-ups that made people wait in line for hours.
I think this time, people are worked up enough that the average life-expectancy of such a tactic is very short. People may not be able to carry guns into polling places but they still have fists. When a few of these "poll-obstructers" get the crap beaten out of them, I think the majority will lose their enthusiasm.
And I will especially enjoy stories about Trump-vote-blockers venturing into predominately Black Philadelphia polls and never being heard from again.
