Most of what is comprehensible in this thread is okay but when dehumanizing the opposition one falls into the same trap as the opposition itself (think 'satan worshipping baby eaters') and is just a bit closer to endorsing that flow of blood we all fear. We got Obama through two terms alive. I'd like to think we can all get through shudder with the current &6%$(* creeps at least maintaining some sort of heartbeats. In the world of Putin, Ong, Erdogan, Xi, Duterte, Orban, Modi, democracy is imperilled far worse than in the US and UK. It helps to keep a sense of proportion along with a sense of smell.
