I will be voting for Trump.
I voted for him the first time, even though I thought he might be about half-crazy (and with obvious personality disorders, but certainly not stupid) because my other choice was Pure Depravity---Hillary Clinton...a dumb, drunk, dishonest and incompetent, hate-filled, coattail-riding bitch whose big stroke in life was to marry a pussy loving Southern boy who happened to be a political genius and who got her every job she ever had, all of which she fucked up.
I will vote for him again for Two reasons this time:
1) Now, instead of running against Pure Depravity, he is running against a Potted Plant--who will need full time Nursing Care between from six months to two years from now; and
2) I have never seen a man work so hard, try so hard---and try against such malignant forces arrayed against him---to fulfill every campaign promise on which he got elected.
When I started typing this, the vote was overwhelmingly in favor of the Donald, personality disorders and all.
So, it is worthwhile to look at the components, as best we can, of what is obviously an unscientific poll. We can only guess.
I joined this board simply by typing in some key words to guide me to what would be a place for mutual sharing of views---something where all views were equally welcome---USMESSAGE Board sounded Unbiased and I joined on that basis. I found it to be controlled by LIBERALS, but with most, but not all, Moderators willing to allow Free Speech. Coyote had some Jackboot tendencies, but she has since gained controlled over them, and I think this board is well run and allows all comers a fee voice.
So, why would it come to be dominated by Trump Supporters, as this poll so far shows?
I saw one post up the thread which explained it as mostly Stupid people---only Progressives are smart...but Progressives are the very ones who advocate so strenuously that every vote should count and every person should have a voice. This is the elitist attitude from the North East which the Heartland has had to put up with since, believe it or not, the contest between Adams and Jefferson in the first few year or so of the 1800's. It was further defined in the contest between Adams' son, John Quincy, and Andrew Jackson---who drove the Northeast Elitists just as crazy as Trump is now driving the modern day Elitists crazy.
Jackson was considered half-crazy (and mean as Hell) but Heartland Americans had to take a chance on him, as we have with Trump, because their other choice---John Quincy Adams, was America's first Socialist President, even though we didn't know to call him a socialist at the time. He thought, like today's Socialists, that the words in the Constitution "promote the Common Welfare" meant creating a Nation of mostly Federal Plantation Porch Sitters who would somehow live happily forever off the efforts of an ever diminishing cohort of PRODUCERS in the Heartland.
So, then as now, Sane Americans find that they have to take a chance on Crazy. Sometimes it works. Jackson was elected to two terms and is now on the Twenty Dollar Bill. Theodore Roosevelt was at least half crazy. He is on Mount Rushmore. The Brits were absolutely sure, in the late 1930's that Winston Churchill was bat-shit crazy. Then Hitler got to chewing on their ass...and they turned to Churchill who performed so brilliantly that he is generally considered the greatest man of the 20th century.
One more. The absolutely craziest man to ever govern a major country is Peter Alexeyevich Romanov, and the Russians still revere him centuries later as Peter The Great.
So why is Trump romping in this poll?
Because he is Crazy enough to have worked his ass off for America; put up with unmitigated Hell for America...and because he is running against a Potted Plant.
