Election Turning Into A Racist Bigoted Mud Slinging Brawl [View all]

Looks like this election is going to descend depths never seen in the modern era. Looks like a brass knuckles slugfest brining up all the lies, hate and vomit possible. There will be no discussion of issues. It be deep personal attacks on old debunked scandals and new phony conspiracy theories. It will be a campaign to paint Hillary and Democrats as the devil himself.

Should Hillary win the hatred will continue and division will continue worse than ever. Trump will fracture this country from coast to coast in the process. The new direction is about leaving a scorched earth aftermath.

Addendum - The debates will be more like a shit throwing contest like the primaries were. I am afraid they will turn into a shocking spectacle that will embarrass us on the world stage. And the campaign will set a historical low for the nation and possible damage the political process for years.
