Thanks for saving me the trouble!
This is not an election where facts seem to matter, I'm afraid. Nearly everything out of Trump's mouth is either a complete distortion or an all-out lie. Fact-checkers seem to agree on that, saying that anywhere from 89% to 95% of his statements are false. But people will believe whatever lets them sleep at night, I guess, and if it serves their purpose for giving an enemy state a pass for trying to rig the election, so be it.
Do you really believe that, 100% believe the above statement?
Facts absolutely matter, and the most prevalent one this election cycle seems to be that people have gotten completely drunk on the cool aid on both sides of the aisle, and have become little more than small children mimicking everything they hear.
Seriously if you can't see that both have a very odd version of what truth is (even to the point of possibly believing their own BS) and one is a obviously more seasoned liar (if you observe closely without prejudice you can even see the override of the bodies natural movements and especially the eyes in preparation of the next fabrication, look closely and see the pulling of the eyes back to center it is a give away) then you are likely too far into the rat hole of fanatical fandom already and are just stuck in blind support mode.
And what it really comes down to is that once you have committed to one side or another they "gotcha" because somehow the thinking process and rational part of the brain is shut down, and like most dedicated supporters of either of the two main parties they expect that all the propaganda will be accepted without any kind of a fight.
Think about it if a large enough number of the voting public has been conditioned to support either side to the point of fanaticism it guarantees that the remaining voters represent too small a group to vote in any kind of true change, and the same two parties that have been screwing up this country for countless years will continue to share in the wealth and power we allow them by our votes and lack of true participation, and members of both parties just laugh at the American public who has been so easily controlled into allowing it all to continue infinitely.
Consider that most of the points that are thrown about (tax returns, guy talk, dumb statements, repeating that the other candidate hates this or that group of voters, and so on) and how many if not most of them have little to nothing to do with what we really want to know about the person who may be our next president. Think about how the debates more resemble a frickin reality show than they do a presidential debate. How so few points on real topics are discussed in any detail or real length, and the whole campaign for both sides is slinging mud and making the other guy look bad.
It seems obvious that the true leaders of both parties (ever wonder how close they really are?) see there is no presidential qualities in either candidate and have turned this election into a worthless slug fest. It is like a really bad comedy.
And even on that theme they seem to miss the real points on how they both are damn bullies, one has supplied large political donations for political favor, and the other has accepted large political donation for supplying political favors and it becomes obvious that this has become little more than a popularity contest where there will be little difference in the outcome as the status quo will continue where the working people of America will continue to see a reduction in their quality of life, increased taxes, increased government, and possibly never a true choice in electing a president based on their ability to improve the country and not a member of the two big bully political parties.
That all said it becomes obvious why Trump is appealing to so many people, and I attribute it not to his polished politically correct manner (that is sarcasm for those who did not pick up on it) but rather the lack of the same and for not being another full of crap lie to face while telling you about all the wonderful things they have done in public office (like Clinton bragging she actually did her job while Senator and signed some bills etc) and the way he screws up seems to actually increase his numbers.
I will close by saying that there are those who will believe those 89%-95% of false statements as well as those who will believe anything being said by the other, but there are also those of us who are not clouded by fanatical thoughts (c'mon people this isn't a ball game where you pick a team and support them to the grave) and can see that the real choice this time around is a combination of voting against one or the other more than supporting either, and very possibly voting against the typical cookie cutter lying politician that has led us down this rat hole in the first place.
Some choice!
