What's bizarre is that he's won the nomination without anyone with any intelligence supporting him. It's like the GOP is overrun with a massive amount of ignorant, low IQ rubes and they now run the show instead of the educated politicians who theoretically use reason over emotion to make decisions. (Theoretically is the operative word here.) Of course the amount of educated politicians have been dwindling on that side of the aisle in recent years.
