as Bush II was, I would've felt safer with him than I would with Trump. At least he had more political experience and wasn't as easy to provoke. It's just pathetic that many people are treating this as a "win" how they helped elect someone who relied heavily on sloganeering rather than policy. All he had to do was act tough, constantly name-call his opponents (behind their backs), and fool people into thinking he was a "populist billionaire". The GOP has gone from Abraham Lincoln and Ike Eisenhower to a guy who was endorsed by the KKK and who pushed a racist birther conspiracy about the first Black president...let that sink in for a moment.
