deadmomjokes:faramosh:canecapulet:wildisthewolf:micdotcom:Trump jokes he could murder someone in public and still win the electionOn Saturday, Republican presidential frontrunner and real-estate billionaire Donald Trump said his supporters are so loyal they’d literally let him get away with murder. This is the second time in a little more than a month Trump has jokingly referred to murder.In related news, Ted Cruz is raising eyebrows with his comments about being American, saying there’s one thing that more important to him.this should terrify you.if it doesn’t, you don’t understand the power of the white supremacists and the tendency of our system to fail the majority^^^^^^^THIS SHOULD TERRIFY YOU ALL.What also freaks me out is that he’s basically admitting that his followers are essentially uninformed, and loyal only to him and not to the greater good, justice, America, or anything else a president should stand for. He knows that people are going to vote for him no matter what, so he can be as terrible as he wants. And the fact that this is true is terrifying because it shows that a significant portion of voters don’t actually care about the country just about getting their candidate into office, even though he clearly has no clue about running a country, how the legislative process works, or what it means to be President. (and, y’know, is also racist, sexist, ableist, bigoted, and wants to enact dictator-like policies to enforce his own jaded views. he doesn’t even care about America, at this point, he just wants things his way.) -- source link
