If Polls Showing Close Race Between Trump & Clinton Are True. We Really Are A Stupid Country.

The presidential election should be a run away for the Dems no matter who is the head of the ticket. And if the polls about a Trump Clinton race being a close call are true then we really are friggin out of our minds nationally. It is a given that ANY GOPPER will destroy this country. A GOPPER being president is suicide for good ole USA.

We will not recover from Reagan or Bush for years to come.

How can you still doubt the level of stupidity in this country. It's breathtaking.

Republicans are running against last two democratic terms. We will win but it won't be a cake walk.

Why do we act like America just turned stupid?
Kennedy only beat Nixon by a nose, so we were stupid back then.

Their first strategy is to lie, and the press has the tools to do just that.
What a shame that the fourth estate has come to that.

That the two least popular candidate and least liked candidates nationally are leading their respective primaries in national polling.

An electorate that would RE-elect Bush/Cheney after their disastrous first term, then turn both houses of Congress over to Republicans after all their wars, Great Recession, obstructionism, gerrymandering, and voter suppression is an electorate in bad shape. I'd call it political incompetence. Or maybe an apocalyptic death wish.

... but accurate.

The lack of acceptance of science, the belief in all sorts of mysticism, the constant re-trying of failed policies....
