for simple shock value and perhaps an attempt to get me heated, I can tell the hard core ones, they no longer speak of such idiocy in my hearing, yet to others they still praise him, proof to me they are not even truly sure why they lean towards the not only bazaar but horror show in play when they cannot using common sense and intelligence explaining this eerie trend...

Racism and hidden rage directed at the weak for their Personal failings I would assume holds them......

Not in my circle of friends, but I know some. The type of people who like to be identified as rednecks. They hate Obama, of course, and see Trump as their salvation. Pathetic.

to have him for a President! NOT. EVEN. ONE! Everybody was put off by his attitude and antics. There were a LOT of Repubs there, too. Most people, repubs included, were talking about Bernie Sanders! The main frame of thought seemed to be "No more Bushes and no more Clintons"...

We have our share of baggers and wingnuts around here, but they seem to be staying in the shadows... or I have just been in some really good company lately. Most people seem to know that we need even MORE change, especially in the economical and health care sections. I hope these "winds of change" get up to Hurricane force!

Peace,

Ghost
