This thread makes me sad - it makes me think there really are people who are so unaware that they cannot tell when someone is a real threat to not only the U.S., but to the world.

I honestly have trouble understanding this phenomenon. It's very scary.

Anyone who votes for the psychomaniac twice, or even once is a complete joke.

Once is bad enough, but twice? You are not right in the head.

My point is that the country won't improve no matter who you vote for.

I would love to see all of those implemented.

Your thread title is a joke, but I'm not laughing. How fortunate for us all, that you and the few of his supporters still maintaining their delusion, won't have that voting opportunity again in three years.

But ... Who else was there to vote for? Hillary? Marco Rubio? They are perhaps more predictable since they are mainstream Rs/Ds, but it's not like they would get anything meaningful done.

Bernie Sanders? Complete clown. I'm surprised his followers are dumb enough to take his act seriously and believe in his voodoo economics.

How about stalwart on the opposite side of the spectrum, such as Ron Paul? It wouldn't matter if he was president, because Congress could override his veto on anything. Same thing if Bernie Sanders was relected. The Rs and Ds are basically the same party and 2/3 of them will vote to keep borrowing (i.e. printing) money to transfer to the military-industrial complex, lawyer-industrial complex, welfare-industrial complex, accounting-industrial complex, prison-industrial complex, homeless-industrial complex, medical-industrial complex, etc.

Might as well vote for Trump because at least he pisses off liberal elites. The past 2 years of Trump being in the spotlight are some of the most political fun I've had. I don't care if The Wall is a waste of money; our country is going bankrupt anyways and we might as well watching the Star Wars Cantina of modern liberals get outraged for the next 8 years.

The next president will be a sort of cartoon character just like Trump. Maybe a liberal version. Who knows. These are the types of leaders you get when your country has become a banana republic.
What a strange way to look at it. You admit Trump is a joke who very well may accomplish nothing. You don't care if the country goes broke, you will vote for him again just to **** of libs? Are you 12? You act like a child.

Interesting.

I said the same of Obama’s voters.

So you are saying we will not be able to vote?

Do you realize how fatuous a statement that is?

Can't say I'm really surprised that Trump voters have this attitude. Trump did say that the poorly educated voted for him


Don't kid yourself. Just as many if not more stupid people voted for Crooked Hillary.
