    Wow, it’s almost like putting the entire weight of the RNC behind a convicted felon in a rematch against the guy he already lost to once in order to control the voting power of the cult that formed around him is, dare I say it, a bad political move? Like, such a bad political move that even somebody who knows absolutely nothing about politics should have been able to see this one coming?

    Imagine how detached from reality you need to be to genuinely believe that getting slapped with a felony conviction will somehow help your campaign.

      I agree with you. But I just want to point out that we are far, far past the “imagine if” stage. At this point in time, it is “witness in reality” how detached from reality Trump supporters are.

      “Imagine if” sounds dismissive and complacent. These people are an actual threat to everyone, including themselves.

      If you aren’t angry about the shit these fucks are pulling, then get angry; if you are already angry, get angrier. Then go out and vote against them.

        Drive people who are not voting for Trump to the polls. It’s easy to do and just requires taking a day off work.
