    Yes it does matter; millions of people will die if Trump wins a second term. Don’t lie to our face by claiming it doesn’t matter.

      Probably. And if the US political establishment actually manages to dig out a competent fascist, many, many more than that will die or have their lives destroyed (which has never been an unusual thing in the US at all - or anywhere the US does “foreign policy”).

      Your problem isn’t Trump. There’s a lot more (and much viler) where he came from. Your problem is the political establishment that allows his existence - will they be allowing you to vote on that any time soon?

          The problem is a contingent of poorly educated small brained white trash

          Oh… so you are placing the blame for the failure of your faux-democratic capitalism on white people who have the least economic power of all white people in the US?

          I wonder… if we were to look at the socio-economic background of the average alt-right supporter - what would we find, liberal?

          Your cognitive dissonance is palpable.
