These comments completely explain your support for Trump.

Oh, I misread unsurprising as surprising. My bad. Looks like we stated more or less the same thing.

I agree with you, Ed. As I said, it is "incredulous and unsurprising". I see many parallels to Germany.

I'm not arguing with you but when you look at what happened in the 1930's in Germany, are you really still surprised? I'm not. I believe the same is going on here. People are so angry about the path we are on that the anger is blinding many of the truth. Or more so, they see the lies and choose to look the other way. On the radio this morning they stated, I believe a Politifact article, that had (I think) 78% of what Trump states as false. I don't trust Politifact to tell the truth either but even if half of what they stated was correct, do we really want that in the White House. Yikes! The path to Fascism.

False choice, term. Your presumption that I would rather Hillary would win (in the face of fact to the contrary) is based on the same kind of logic you use to support Trump.

We are a couple of downers, aren't we? Let's hope our apocalyptic visions do not occur. Meanwhile I think Gary Johnson is the way to go.

I can't believe voters don't see that Goldman and her other big contributors wants a return on their investment, and she has promised that at our expense. She lies and hides that so far

I agree totally, and with all the trump hatred out there, I suspect she will win. It's time to shrug unfortunately and leave the wealth of the country to the politically entitled. In a way, MADOFF was smart. He played the statist system like James taggart and had a good life while the getting was good. Sorry to say

It's looking like without trumps opposition to Hillary beast, she will win in november. There are people like yourself who would rather have her. Sanders would be worse. Both will result in the loss of my small business which I will be forced to milk and close this year if possible. We have 10 employees who will be out of jobs for certain. $12-$15 per hour minummum wage will see to that. Half the capital gains I was hoping to see by building up my small business will be post-war so why bother building it up any more.

Trump engenders a lot of hate because he is anti establishment and anti political correctness. But he isn't going to do things to destroy our economy. The expensive candidates are sanders and Hillary. Both have proposed massive tax hikes which will kill stock profits and kill off the incentive to start small business with the idea of selling it off later (40-64% capital gains). For me, I might as well just close my small business with the $12-$15 minimum wage. In fact I am planning on a 25% reduction in workforce this year-guaranteed if Hillary/sanders gets in

Yes, the choices are poor, and these are indeed perilous times for our republic. I will choose the lesser evil in November and hope and pray for the best.

I know, I have a hard time keeping track of all the criminal activity, which, strangely enough, never gets investigated. My wife says I ought to send Teddy Cruz the video of the guy in 2012 who could not vote for a Republicap in Ohio because the machine kept going back to Democrap. Ask him what were the results of his investigation, and who was responsible. Then tell him to shut up, he is as bad as any other politician we have.

None of which can be done without Congress, while HillaryBeast can sell the country with no issues at all, she has done so before. Check out the donation the Clinton Foundation got from Kazakhstan richest dude after she sold him 50% of the Uranium deposits in the US. Her deals have been treasonous, on top of the email thing. She cannot be allowed in, or you and I will not have a shirt left after she steals them all to give to her cronies. At least Trump will have some firewall around him. But your concerns are valid, we are just in deep doo at this point.

It will be worse this year, which is why he has to count on selling Independents that he will fix something, and not do too much damage, or the Beast may be in.

Well I know what the Reichstag fire meant. I would argue you will only find .001% of our population who even know what it was, let alone what it meant. HillarBeasts record of corruption is as dangerous as Trumps lunacy. However, we just have to hope the spineless Jellyfish of congress can hold him in check. But all is not lost, we may see a total meltdown before November, and both get canned, causing a constitutional crisis, which would be even worse for us.I am convinced Lord Obamanation would love to just say "I guess I have to stay on for a while" and shred the Constitution.
