In reply to the discussion: Trump rips John Lewis: Worry about your 'crime infested' district [View all]DallasNE
(7,403 posts)45. Donald Trump Is Deranged
This is not news as his derangement has been on display from the start. Here he is openly racist but that is not new either as that too has been on display from the start.
What I still can't wrap my hands around is how this sick person could develop such a large following. He has never shown any sense of decency or class in spite of all of his money. Obama made everybody feel good and to be a proud American in large measure because of his decency and class. His outgoing poll numbers are near an all-time high for outgoing president and then America elects the polar opposite. There is just no way to wrap your hands around such an aberration.
