I don't think Trump is Hitler and I do think the people that support him, for the most part, have the best of intentions at heart. They want a change. They know that something is wrong. Something is wrong.
But our fellow member, Blazemore, was close to the mark. It's not that they are unintelligent though. They are misinformed. Many of the people that support someone like Trump has been exposed to years of Right Wing propaganda and are trained to be ignorant of what really weakens this country.
Abortion, gays, Liberals and illegal immigrants are not a threat to this country. They do not weaken this country.
War weakens this country. Out-of-control crony capitalism weakens this country. That includes healthcare, Wall Street, etc. Yet they continue to support those that stand against their own self interests.
At what point do they put their ego aside and see what the hell is really going on here?

Yeah, I do, to a point.
But how many anti-Bernie rallies or anti-Hillary, anti-Cruz rallies have there been?

They support Trump because they're desperate, weak, and scared.
Bandits' majority owner John Bassett was a strong proponent of the spring football concept and the original budgetary guidelines set by himself and the other original founders of the USFL. However, some owners wished to compete with the NFL for higher-priced players, resulting in many franchises losing substantial amounts of money and causing much instability throughout the league over its short run. In April 1985, the USFL (led by New Jersey Generals owner Donald Trump[6][7]) voted 12-2 to switch to a fall schedule for 1986 in a bid, hoping to compete directly with the NFL and possibly force the more established league to accept a merger. Bassett, who had registered one of the two "nay" votes, immediately declared his intention to pull the Bandits out of the USFL and organize a new spring football league.

I agree with what you said, but I think America should start to show a little depth on the roster of potential Presidents. I'm hoping for a brokered convention and a "knight in shining armor" to appear. Michael Bloomberg is somebody who might be on my wish list, if I were a Republican.
I don't like chaos and I think we are heading for it.

a reply to: CosmicSmack I love seeing the devotees run to trumps rescue any time someone dares write anything negative about the great leader. Whenever I've criticised trump, I've never had so many replies to a post from the followers. It's weird.

The light side is following a guy who was a bum for 40 years? Somehow I think he's even less qualified than the casino owner......

But that guy represents the very essence of his voters.. 'the takers'. It's why he is so popular.

Right takers that vote for more taxes. Makes sense.
