People who support Trump a very obviously desperate, otherwise they would not put their support behind a terrible individual such as Trump. Considering the stakes, I think it is more intelligent to be cautious and to try to make use of some of the lessons of the past than to be in denial.

  Just because you think he's terrible doesn't mean others "must be desperate" to support him. That's a pretty fallacious line of thinking there. Not saying I agree with Trump; I'm simply playing Devil's Advocate.

    I don't THINK he his terrible. He is terrible. This is not a subjective point of view. There is enough evidence. A guy who wants to ban people of a whole religion to enter his country, who calls all Mexicans rapists, a guy who publicly promotes bullying and discrimination, a guy who feels he has to defend the size of his penis, a guy who lacks any kind of manners, any empathy, and any cultural sensitivity, is a terrible person to be the president of the a very powerful and influental country. And a terrible person in general. The public figure trump is, by all measures of the civilized, modern world, a terrible person. And the only three groups who would support him are: 1) terrible persons themselves 2) stupid 3) desperate. And 3) is the most likely option. This vice documentary shows the desperation of Trump supporters quite well. Or rather, the hope they put into Trump as a result of their frustration and desperation due to the seemingly never-ending struggle they are facing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezvBs9SYxIY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezvBs9SYxIY
