Trump is... no Adolf Hitler

No, but a good number of his followers are. Its 1933 in AmeriKKKa.

if he doesn't restore the rust belt industries with full payrolls there are going to be an awful lot of blue collar ex-workers who are going to be awfully pissed-off.

That's WHEN he doesn't Kevin - he can't restore them. And the pissed-of morons will blame anyone but Trump.

Alan, it appears that Clinton won the popular vote - if you want to discuss "democracy".

Looks like Mencken was right on the money (but I suspect he wouldnt be at all happy about it) -

"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."
