Yeah, they are merely sociopathic. But we are used to that in our politicians. In fact, it seems only sociopaths are attracted to the job. Trump, though, isn’t only sociopathic. He is psychopathic as well. As well as ill-informed, incurious, bellicose, narcissistic, chauvinistic, and…(just for you, bnw)…racist.
This man is disgraceful. And it is to this country’s shame that a man who has violated all boundaries of decent behavior can come this close to the presidency. Common courtesy and good manners are in such complete disarray that we apparently no longer expect respectful behavior from anybody. Donald Trump isn’t the only one who is insane, apparently.
Well said and spot on, regarding all the candidates.
But only one of them — Trump — has admitted on tape that he engages in sexual assaults, routinely. I would have thought the country and the GOP would have turned on him a year ago and laughed and booed him off the stage. After his bitherism; his fascistic call to ban all Muslims; his inciting violence at his rallies and against his opponents; his demonizing of black and brown people around the world, especially workers; his six deferments and six bankruptcies, while pretending to be a tough guy business genius; the 4000 ongoing lawsuits against him; the decades freeloading off of taxpayers, etc. etc. Lie after lie, crooked business deal after crooked business deal, using the Trump Foundation as a slush fund to pay his own legal bills, etc. etc . . . .
But it seems they needed this. They needed the sight and sound of a sexual predator bragging about what he does to women on a regular basis.
Trump has driven this election into the gutter. I hope America recovers its soul and its sanity ASAP.
