Trump is truly a scary man. Read his interview with the Washington Post Editorial Board. It's incoherent, vague, evasive. The guy can barely complete a thought, and seems to have next-to-no knowledge about important national and international issues. Not to mention his obsession with letting everybody know his penis is big enough. I'm not kidding, he spends a chunk of the interview on just that. Also on bragging about the apartments he's building... Honestly, that interview had me wondering if he is developing dementia, is on drugs (speed, maybe to keep up with all the campaigning) or is seriously sleep-deprived and just can't cope with it. Is this somebody we want for president? Giant ego, incredibly easily offended, quick to advocate violence, simple, unworkable solutions, appeals to misogyny and racism... Voting for Trump because you don't like status quo politicians is like letting an ape do your brain surgery because you don't like your current doctor.
My precinct (In Tucson) didn't even have a polling place this election. Just a notice in the mail saying we were a mail-only precinct. Is this even legal? Being someone who always reads the directions, I caught the rather inconspicuous notice that came with my mail-in ballot, and voted by mail. My roommate didn't and had to ride around looking for a polling place. I'm betting a lot of my neighbors didn't either, and wonder how many of them missed their chance to vote. How many of them just tossed the early ballot, thinking I always go to the polls, and missed the notice altogether. My precinct is largely poor and Latino, and this does make me wonder about voter suppression.
