Yes, I recall in 2000 when George Bush was the likely nominee, and it was larks in the spring-time for Democrats. That moron?
Trump may be a case of careful what you wish for in the general election. If it's true that the pure products of America go crazy, and I think it is, The American people are perfectly capable of electing a billionaire Bizarro populist who regards them with contempt.
I find myself hopeful that none of the clown-car win the general election, but America elected Brain-dead Reagan and Torturer Bush twice each.
If the clown car wins, America probably will never recover in my lifetime and may end up a failed state like Somalia. We are on the brink of a cultural revolution like we saw in Mao's China.

The things we have seen happen to protestors at Trump rallies, that he not only approves of but encourages, instead of condemning, is scary, dangerous stuff.

One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it. Contrary to your understanding, all available evidence confirms it. --Subbie
If evolution is shown to be false, it will be at the hands of things that are true, not made up. --percy
