I believd it. Trump is not fit to lead in government under any capacity. I can only hope that many of these people feel the same about Republicans in general. Believing that since this party was irresponsible enough to allow a misfit like Trump in the door, what else are they capable of.
The american public feels Trump is plenty fit to lead, they voted him through vs a dozen or so strong candidates.
So you are happy with the status quo where politicians on both sides of the aisle are beholden to their mega-rich donors and thus put said donors ahead of their constituents?
Quote:
As president, Hillary will:
Overturn Citizens United—the Supreme Court case that unleashed hundreds of millions of dollars in corporate and special-interest money into U.S. elections. Hillary will appoint Supreme Court justices who will protect Americans’ right to vote over the right of billionaires to buy elections. She will also propose a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United within her first 30 days in office.
End secret, unaccountable money in politics. We need federal legislation to require outside groups to publicly disclose significant political spending. And until Congress acts, Hillary will sign an executive order requiring federal government contractors to do the same. She’ll also push for an SEC rule requiring publicly traded companies to disclose political spending to shareholders.
Amplify the voices of everyday Americans. Hillary will establish a small-donor matching system for presidential and congressional elections to give small donors greater influence.

I refer to him as a fascist, but really he's a fascist-wanna-be. The reality is that this isn't a banana republic and the POTUS cannot turn us into the kind of fascist state that Trump wants and that you're referring to. So, he'd be an annoyance. A grand annoyance. He'd also cause a lot of long-term damage: To the nation's reputation, to the justice achieved for women and minorities over the last century, etc. But he won't be a "threat" to anyone in Congress.

That's true. Trump would be able to cause a lot of misery and suffering among people he hates. And then anger and frustration among his supporters when the realize he lied about how doing those things would bring about improvements in his supporters lives that in reality never come. They'll realize he's duped them just in time for the next POTUS election in 2020.

No, he can't. It's a shame you have been deceived into thinking he can do that.
Im voting Trump. Even on my Facebook. I counted 2 people subscribed to Hillary Clinton's page and 30 subscribed to Trump. All those people are currently living in the Liberal Utopia of Chicago....
This election is about the silent majority.
Trump supporters are the loudest noisiest silent majority we ever heard.
Proof that Trump supporters can't read? The poll was not conducted by the Post, they were simply reporting on the findings.
But feel free to dismiss it, just like we will be dismissing Donald Trump on November 8th.
This will be the saddest day in history if this happens...
You will then have to deal with dirty, crooked Hillary....I don't want to see her face after Nov 8th... Certainly NOT as our president. That would be a disaster for our country.
...Meh.. 56% of the US population says it's important that Hillary not be elected.
I'm with them.
again with the lack of reading comprehension? Nope, it's 57% of ALL voters who say that Trump shouldn't president, compared with 49% saying that about Hillary. Yes, not a great number but still less than half, which becomes a critical factor when you are trying to get a majority of votes.
Both major candidates are in the 40% range so no the majority of Americans do not say that unless you mean majorities of both parties say neither should be
We also get that a majority of american voters don't like Trump. Which you apparently don't get.
From a poll?
All doctored to fit their agenda narrative.
