I find both polar oposites to be quite irrational as well.Well, they have to be tolerated, but it sure would be nice if cooler heads would prevail and people like this are culturally marginalized.This is actually really true in my opinion. Not really talking about their policy goals, but speaking of the methods that they use in attempts to get their policy pushed through...both extremes should not be tolerated in my opinion.Funny how the far left and far right sound alot alike at times.
And you guys are right. Both ends of the spectrum hate hearing this, but their behaviors & methods are very similar. They're no easier to communicate with than some wild-eyed teenage boy on the streets of Damascus. They just don't realize it. Their minds are closed, and no contrary information or thought survives long in there.
No improvements of substance can happen until they don't control the conversation. And I don't see that happening any time soon.

For years now, decades, the far Right has been damning the Clintons and I personaly donot believe that Hillary would make a good President for many reasons, but the far right has been insisting she would threaten the existence of this nation.
But now we have Trump, who is not a dogmatic reflective conservative, but has conservative policy goals that almost exactly match Ted Cruz' policies, and the far right is in hysterics that Trump might wind up President. They are so hysterical that they are effectively aiding the Wicked Witch of the South to gain the Presidency for herself.
And why? Because they dont think that Trump can actually win against HRC? Then why help HRC by launching such vicious attacks against Trump?
Because Trump might not be truly conservative enough? Well, HRC would be infinitely worse according to them.
Their actions are totally irrational, and they are about to blow up the GOP by rigging the convention to defraud Trump and his supporters?
That is all just insane.
