What frightens me, is a block of voters that will vote for Trump, that has a powerful, united presence.
This block of voters are of the mindset of "either you are with us, or you are against us."
Democrats lost to Republicans by a very thin margin.
Republicans lost to Democrats by a very thin margin.
Who are these voters, that might tip the balance in Trump's favor ?
Speaking the truth, of what is in their hearts.

"We’ll see how much her life matters soon."
"Better be careful leaving your info open where she can be found."
"Hold her close tonight it’ll be the last time.”

The threat was left on the Facebook page of a woman, that has a daughter that supports Black Lives Matter.
The woman made the mistake of posting a picture of her daughter, openly, on her Facebook page.

I am of the opinion that Left leaning journalists are celebrating the demise of Trump, too early.
Trump is a Schrödinger's cat of a presidential hopeful.

Trump is, on the face of it, harming his prospects for November. He certainly doesn’t sound like he’s trying to win over the soccer moms in Columbus, or the office workers in Tampa, that he needs to win the election. He sounds like he is talking to his angry base, and supplying them with an inflammatory narrative that can be trotted out for years, and decades, to come. It’s a tactic that politicians outside the United States, such as Jean-Marie Le Pen and Jörg Haider, have used to good effect in building up far-right nationalist movements.

The electoral college sided with law breakers, with the decision to allow Republicans to interfere with an election.
Democrats humbled themselves, and bowed down to the law of the land.

"...once you have delegitimized an election result, or an elected leader, you can justify all sorts of extra-electoral, and indeed anti-democratic, actions."
"Healthy democracies don’t decay overnight. They gradually rot from within, with termites like Trump undermining their foundations."

Another view, is that our country was built on rotting foundations.
The culture of invasion, conquest, domination , and exploitaion, never ended.
Today, all around the world, there is proof of that culture, destroying and harming.
