Aha. Good to see the American populace, in general, still have more sense than either Trump
or any of the other despicably dishonest and simple-minded power seekers like him.

"Most Americans Are Liberal, Even If They Don’t Know It
Don’t believe it? Check out these polls."

There was a mammoth hate manufactured blip in 2016, driven by misrepresentation and lies, but common sense
can bounce back from that. It looks, just perhaps, my enduring faith in American voters may be justified.

We must not forget Trump's support for torture.

In late March 2016, a series of powerful bomb blasts .. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-euroe-35872754 .. killed nearly three dozen people at the international airport in Brussels, Belgium, as well as in a train carriage pulling out of one of the central city’s busy stations.

Within hours of the atrocity, then–presidential candidate Donald Trump had taken to the airwaves and to Twitter. He didn’t make statements expressing moral and emotional solidarity with the victims and their families. Nor did he talk about the extraordinarily complex political and intelligence challenges confronting multicultural Western societies in the face of the ISIS attacks. Instead, he used his platform to proselytize for torture .. https://www.nytimes.com/politics/first-draft/2016/03/22/warning-of-u-s-attacks-donald-trump-advocates-allowing-torture/?mcubz=1&_r=0 . Salah Abdeslam, the recently captured suspect in the previous year’s Paris attacks, would, said the presidential hopeful, have talked “a lot faster with the torture,” and in doing so might have spilled the beans on his confreres in Belgium before they could launch their own attacks.

Bush’s administration, as if that weren’t bad enough. Time and again, Trump urged his crowds of supporters on by dangling before them the prospect of violence for violence’s sake.
