Trump? Cruz? Kasich?
No sane person would want any of these clowns anywhere near the Oval office.
Not the tiny fisted, carny barker megalomaniac, not the hyper religious, gun worshiping, snake oil salesman, and no, not even the one who seems almost reasonable compared to the other two, but down deep is just another reactionary hack.
And yet, there are millions of Americans of voting age who are seriously considering voting for them.
So, we are forced to confront the fact that many millions of Americans are simply out of their minds.
They know nothing of history. They have no concept of truth and fiction. They live in a fact free zone.
Their big issues are abortions, guns, religion, and immigration.
Oh, yeah, and an all encompassing fear and hatred of "the other".
They are dead certain that the brown people are getting away with something.
And if only "we" could stop them, everything would be fine and we could go back to our idyllic Mayberry past.
They truly madly deeply believe this shit!
And here's the kicker: Republican controlled states across this great land of ours have spent the last decade figuring out new and better ways to rig elections. Whether by simple gerrymandering or outright voter suppression they have made it harder and harder for Democrats to vote.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.
