58. Help me out here. I'm really not understanding

Thu May 5, 2016, 01:37 AM

May 2016

why that percentage is considered "astonishing". If anything, it's actually "astonishing" that it's not 100 percent, given his very obvious hatred of any skin that isn't white and his often having anyone who isn't white thrown out of his rallies, or his minions attacking anyone who isn't white who are at his rallies. And you know The DipDon is only going to use that percentage to increase the virulent hatred and racism of his "lovely" supporters, and turn himself into a fucking victim. I cannot believe that this is really happening, that he is really going to be the nominee. I keep thinking that this is a nightmare I'm going to wake up from at any time. If only.
