The good news and the bad news---(IMHO)

The good news: it looks like approximately 60% or so of next November's voters will vote against Trump.

The bad news: the 60% may be split between 4 or 5 Democrats. Most of those votes will go to our nominee; the others will be cast for others by short-sighted self-centered fools to "send a message" to those who support our nominee.

The fools will deserve 4 more years of Trump. The rest of us won't, but that is what we may get.

People who will vote for their Democrat but not yours or mine are the idiots Trump and his people are counting on.

that there will be a very strong belief in "I'm voting blue no matter who!"

Surely the "message senders" learned a lesson from 2016.
