Speaking as one who never was in any danger of voting for Trump, what would be my alternative? The warhawk spouse of a womanizing politician I tired of 20 years ago? IOW, same shit, different decade? And then we're all shocked that the populist candidate actually pulled it off this time? Maybe the world collectively asked, "what's the worst that could happen?" Well, now we know.
Yes, between the "warhawk" with eight years of ancillary experience in the White House, who served in the Senate and as Secretary of State, and the reality tv show host whose only political experience was failing at a previous presidential run, the former was still the most viable candidate for the job, even though her husband got a blowjob that one time.
Although I don't consider that to be legitimate participation in the political process, so much as an act of sabotage.
There's a difference between burning your own neighborhood down, and burning Wall Street / Washington / Hollywood / Silicon Valley down.
Lighting a fire doesn't affect everyone equally, it burns up who has the most wood. It's an attack proportional to inequality, not a uniform one.
Sen Clinton set the middle east on fire as Secretary of State. And then ran away before it blew up in her face leaving Sen John Kerry to clean up the mess.
Seriously there is something really shabby about the current political parties in the US. People forget Trump didn't just narrowly beat Clinton. He utterly trounced Jeb Bush.
