I'm with ya there, ol' boy.

Trump still looks exactly like bad satire to me. How anyone could vote for him is beyond me. It does, however, explain how things like what's going on in Syria, and the whole Nazi thing, and ISIS, and the unprovoked and bumbling invasion of Iraq, and ... (I guess the list goes on and on) ... can happen.

Lots and lots of people are substantially delusional. Most everyone is to a degree, I reckon.

You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
