Noises from the SW Front

The Donald

I couldn't help myself; I had to blip the ejit John Oliver described as a sentient circus peanut. As the caption under the photo points out, people all over the world question Americans about Trump.
It's usually along the lines of " the majority of people in the US are too smart to vote for him....aren't they?" Short answer: possibly not...he's made it this far.
There's a large section of the population which feels left out, much like Brexit "leavers", and that he's the guy to disrupt the status quo and spur change. I think most agree he says some terrible things but, sadly, they seem comfortable with most of the bile he spews. I fear for our future if he wins and I am terrified he will, as the opposition didn't make this as easy to choose them as might have been expected.
Here's hoping for a resurgence of common sense between now and November.
