Even Reagan Republicans are voting for Hillary. Yikes.

You gave yourself away with your Avatar.

I guess Chauncey the gardener is too complex for you to understand.

Trump is like an evil Chauncey since he talks nonsense but people believe him,
just like in the movie.

It is about a benign gardener who makes banal statements about how important the rain is to making a garden grow and becomes an economic advisor to the President because people think he is making great economic theories when in fact he is illiterate.

Trump does the same thing: constantly speaks in non-sequiturs and people vote for him.

I am coming to believe that there are two types of Trump voters: those who actually believe him, and those angry enough who know better but purposely want to throw a wrench into the system because they are upset with a changing world order and economy.

America's job is too somehow fix this disunion. Trump is not the answer.

There it is.

I thought of Chauncy when Trump responded to "Who do you consult with on foreign relations?" with; "I have a really great brain."..........
