    Well, I don't have the bandwidth - technically (and I suppose mentally) to watch this nonsense. I could easily post idiots who support Sanders. Warren. Klobuchar. Buttieg. Obama. Bush. Etc, etc...

    Have you ever sat down and really spoken to someone who supports a politician diametrically opposed to your view?

    I'm reminded of something Hunter S Thompson once said. (IMHO he was one of the greatest political writers of our times).

    I don't remember the who of it.... it was one of the powerful southern congress critters. But Hunter said he was his favorite person to sit down and drink with. Because they could have deep conversations, and while they weren't going to change each others minds...they were going to sow those seeds of doubt.

    The worlds not a simple place. Nor is our country. We, nor our preferred candidate- have the answers.

    And if we think we do...we are %#)^!&. This "us vs them" mentality will get us nowhere but the grave...

    so, david,
    i met Hunter once - we liked each other right off... wild men - smart, talented, clear, courageous - are rare. same for wild women.

    re trump supporters: when people insist on ignorant loyalty to the degree that it's clearly against their self-interest, repeatedly, and over time, nothing can be said. yep, it is nonsense.

    your commenting on it without having seen it... let's move on, shall we? jude

    I'm curious. If you only converse with people you believe do not display ignorant loyalty, wouldn't that make you uninteresting to Hunter?
