What does it take? He's insulted them. He's insulted us. He's insulted our allies. The ideas coming from his head are a word salad. He mocks veterans. He hates on our military, pisses on its traditions. Hates women and babies. Doesn't care for republicans. Doesn't care for democrats.

Am I missing something? WHO THE FUCK IS STILL SUPPORTING HIM! Trolls who live under a bridge?

Actually, I know why it shows a closer race than what would otherwise be expected. The surveys can only reach people who are willing to take pollster calls, which leaves out a lot of people who've unplugged the TV & telephone.
