Almost every post out there devolves into...

a Hillary put down parade. Post something negative about Trump, it becomes a "but Hillary is worse" thread. I posted a simple observation about Trump surrogates, first and only response was an anti Hillary response.

Just thought I would affirm all the negativity we are all feeling from many posters.

Every thread, regardless of content, is required to have at least one anti-Hillary screed. It's the law.

Anyone progressive, liberal, or Democrat who believes that Hillary is worse than Trump is an idiot. No exceptions.

But then, I'm pretty sure a lot of the suddenly pro-Trump crowd here aren't progressives, liberals, or Democrats.

I posted something yesterday in GD, not even related to the election and the first two posts were attacks on Hillary.

I deleted the post rather than let that go on.
