As someone who is just interested in following this election for the sake of comedy, putting all actual or ironic Trump supporters on ignore (or just ignoring them) greatly improves the experience. You guys should probably do this, and when the answer to everything is just "*insane fabrication that is in no shape or way supported by anything else then at best the word of a person who can't get through one speech or interview without lying* TRUMP!" It's not like you're missing anything.

It's like watching a stand up comedy show except some person in the audience loudly proclaims that they genuinely believe what the comedian just joked about. Donald Trump is loving endless goldmine of entertainment, people who actually buy his poo poo are weird and creepy. People who pretend to be weird and creepy are just that in another way.

On the other hand they will make the actual election day very entertaining though. He's going to get the nomination, right? I don't think I can take Ted Cruz's face for much longer and Hillary is just boring. I'm not an American so I don't get how he can lose with the most votes and his voters won't burn everyone even remotely involved in that alive because that is some bullshit

the real reason is that there isn't any news to post after 11 or so until the next day. the thread either dies or they troll it.

You get that there is no way he will become president, right? Hitler was actually popular with Germans (Hitler wasn't elected though), Trump is the most loathed candidate in modern history. It's guilt-free entertainment with national budget, tune out the mouth-breathers who support him until you can hear their crying and whining on election day and enjoy the ride!

There are in fact several ways he could become president and one of them could plausibly happen, but if this is the story that holds your fragile mind together and you prefer it that way, enjoy your fairy tale while you can

I'm not American, i have no stake in this. I'm not one of those people who think President Trump will usher in WWIII, he will have little effect on my life.

He has zero chance though

seriously if you are running against TED CRUZ and don't get ten out of ten votes, something is very much wrong with you, at least Hillary is going against everyone's favorite grandpa

The idea that Hillary can easily beat Trump is one of the largest fictions of this whole cycle, and watching the astonished reaction of the nation when that edifice crumbles will be even better than when we all realized that he had a chance of winning the Republican primary.

I always thought he would have a good chance in the Republican Primary. I didn't think he was the likely victor, but I mean look at how batshit insane that party is and who he was running against. He's still incapable of getting even a simple majority there haha

Every presidency does, America is a pretty big country. Unless the Congress disappears and he becomes God-Emperor he's not going to destroy the world.

You guys will probably be hosed financially for a generation though, but that happen.

Only after being appointed, seizing power and unleashing a torrent of murder, violence and intimidation on every possible political opposition. He was elected in the same way African dictators are elected I suppose.

EDIT: it was also a coalition, Nazis got only about 40% I think

Unless you mean in his district specifically I don't think he did. The Nazis did get a plurality of votes and seats, but not 80%. They had to band together with other right-nationalist parties for a majority.
