      The GOP has been fighting a war against our educational system for about 70+ years. Add to that the fact that most of these people have been voting R for generations, so it’s basically like a religion to them.

      There’s also the news networks that feed them the bullshit they’ve been brainwashed into wanting to believe.

      Add it all together and you get yourself a cult.

      Honestly, I still wonder if I am having a really long bad dream. It just doesn’t add up. In the past elections have been close. This fucking asshole is despised by every democrat and a good deal of ex-republicans but he still is ahead in the polls. How does that square up?
