I personally am not a Trump supporter, but friends of mine are. They think this country needs a businessman to run it; others find him refreshingly un-PC.
Many liberals have compared him to Hitler or KKK, but to me he is neither. Maybe more like Mussolini — blustery buffoon & ham actor — but he is neither insane nor racist. Just a bit (OK, a lot) full of himself.
Nevertheless, I don’t feel he has the gravitas necessary to be president. I too am alarmed at the amount of support, and I wonder if people are being serious or spiteful. As if they’re in on one big joke of which I’m ignorant.
If FR is any example, its spiteful.
