It is official… Donald Trump is now the candidate for the presidency of the United States of America, representing a significant portion of the people of this country.
I am not going to spend any time panicking about whether or not he has a chance to win… that is too horrible to contemplate.
Instead, I am going to despair over the fact that enough people thought he was a viable candidate to get us into this mess in first place.
Not to put too fine of a point on it, but I just can’t wrap my head around what you people are thinking… or if, in fact, you even are.
Are you really so angry, so alienated, so desperate for change, that this pompous, lying, thin-skinned, racist, sexist, pile of weasel droppings actually has you fooled into thinking you are going to be better off with him in charge?
Once again, if he runs this country like one of his hotels, the vast majority of you won’t be movin’ on up to the penthouse suite… you will be lucky to get a job as maid, dishwasher or pool boy… and minimum wages aren’t going to go up, either.
Yes, you sent a message to Washington… but you also sent a message to the entire world. And they will never look at us as the country we once were again.
The fact is that you turned your party over to the lunatic fringe, the loudest clamoring voices of discontent. And you ended up with crazy stupid people being your representatives… to the point where now, your choices were so vile, you ended up with Trump.
I don’t think that most of you even wanted to end up here… I have to believe that.
But you accepted the tea party into your ranks, because it is really just all about cramming as many people into the tent as possible, to keep the numbers up, to not drive anyone away…
Well, you ended up tea-bagging yourselves.
It is a bitter beverage, and now you are trying to serve it to all of us.
Pouring My Art Out 
It’s a dark day for humanity to think there are so many that think that this … creature … would be anything more than a worm is horrendous. I used to think it was funny, the fact that he was running, and now he is actually a contender for the white house – well, the joke has lost its funniness now, so can we stop.
These have become scary times in which to live…
I’m sorry for you guys, honestly. I think this spells the end of your country as a really awesome place. Now I think you’re just like everyone else; not great anymore, but commonplace, and kind of frail and faulty. It had to happen sometime, but it’s hard to watch. Welcome to the ghetto, we’ll save a place for you.
I think the slide started when Dick Cheney started torturing people…
Possibly. We hate that it’s happening.
the whole world does…
You guys are a bunch of crazies, so I’m not surprised (says someone who still has a monarch…), and he might even win; but he’ll only be your leader, you don’t have to do what he says.
I don’t do what anyone says…
…reply to this comment…
It shines a light on the state of our country when so many people are interested in endorsing hate.
That is exactly it.
Unfathomable! Incomprehensible! Appalling! Disgusting! Terrifying! Atrocious! WTF????????????????????????????????????????
I am just stunned.
