For one, you are looking at this logically when there is no logic to it. Two, the curtain has been pulled back. Not even the DNC or GOP party heads are pretending votes matter anymore. Out right saying on msm, we choose the candidate, not the people. Three, this country is in the middle of a very large Marxist movement being carried out by people who don't even know what it means, hell, most don't even know what the Capitol of the US is, let alone our branches of government and how they are supposed to work.
The shutting down of the first amendment rights of people, the riots, are just the start to the Marxist government they are pushing for. When they get it, they are going to be hating life, as their safe spaces and tantraums could land them in prison or worse. They don't know what they got 'til it's gone comes to mind.

There is no logic to wanting a carnival-barker, reality show racist as the president.

For those who missed it, racist now means "advocates on behalf of the people of his country, regardless of race".

Oh god it's this idiot again. I don't think I've ever actually seen a liberal like yourself make a real argument against Trump. Or anybody you disagree with for that matter. It's always straight to the personal insults.
It must either be because you have no real arguments against Trump or you've the intellectual abilities of a elementary school bully.
