    You just described 95 percent of American voters.

    If that was true, hateful incompetence would've become our national platform way before now.

    So you're basically saying it's OK for the liberals to vote anti-Republican, but it's not OK for the conservatives to vote anti-liberal. How convenient.

    I think any of them can for one reason: Trump doesn't have the national party or organizational infrastructure to deliver candidates who would mount primary challenges to those who would vote against him. Once he loses, he'll be out of the politics game.

    Speaking of mindlessness, you're falling into the liberal trap of ignorantly convincing yourself that only one side is full of ignorant assholes.

    No, I'm not.

    I'm convinced, very specifically, that people who support Donald fucking Trump for the highest office in our country are ignorant, dangerous assholes.

    I don't like Hillary, and I hate a lot of her supporters. But there is simply no comparison or equivalence for how dangerous Trump is.

    So quaint that there's suddenly all this concern over uninformed voters.

    Stupid people can only be so dangerous.

    Yeah, and Trump is the Republican nominee. If it goes to the House, Trump wins, even over Romney.

    Trust me on this. I considered this scenario as well, but the Republican establishment is now lined up behind Trump.

    I guess we'll find out which one of us is right in six months.

    I think you have to decide if the nation firstly, and the Republican Party, and the "conservative movement" secondarily, are better off with Hillary or Trump.

    Trump's not a movement conservative. He's barely a Republican. But, I don't see how electing Hillary is a better option.

    Republicans in the House and Senate will have a much better chance of advancing their agenda, and getting conservative judges confirmed to courts throughout the judiciary under a Presidential Trump than under a President Clinton.

    And, I'm not worryied about him damaging the country. Trump is a pragmatist. He blusters, but at the end of the day he's a pragmatist. He'd be the least partisan person elected President in at least 50 years.
