So, you're saying that since there are major issues with the current system the best idea is just to burn it to the ground by electing a reckless maniac? That's just a way to make sure everyone is equally screwed.
Historians centuries from now will never understand how the famous and wealthy scion of one of the wealthiest families in the most famous and wealthy city in the world was ever perceived to be a "reckless maniac" outsider. This guy is as inside as inside gets. His entire public persona is a calculated pose. He was recorded saying that he would develop such a persona, were he ever to deign to run for office. A vote for Trump is the opposite of a vote to burn down anything, no matter what the rubes think.
If, as seems more and more likely, Trump is elected, I guarantee the following: no "border wall" will be built, the TPP and TTIP will both be ramrodded through, and the "1%" will get even more "1%" than they already are.
> He was recorded saying that he would develop such a persona, were he ever to deign to run for office.
Source? There's a quote about him claiming that he'd "run as a republican, since they're the dumbest voters in the country." but that quote has been debunked.
That's an absurdly partisan statement considering his likely opponent is currently under investigation for reckless behavior while serving as a senior government official.
His opponent's level of reckless mania is not pertinent here. (Or should that be maniacal recklessness?) Also, there's nothing partisan about Trump-bashing. People from all over the political spectrum have been making common cause over it.
