You're one of the useful idiots to the left of the Gaussian curve of IQ that the current populists have learned to manipulate.
Problem is that pandering to the stupid doesn't really give rise to good outcomes, as history has repeatedly shown.Hard Brexit now!

It’ll be funny if Ted Cruz loses to O’Rourke in Texas. Cruz is the one figure in US politics who makes me think David Icke might be on to somethingComment

Originally posted by darmstadt View PostAgreed, I also think the Stacey Abrams and Brian Kemp race in Georgia is quite interesting. Having just returned from an extended period in the US and going back shortly, it was quite interesting to listen to people's opinions however the most interesting thing is every time I have been there, no-one has ever admitted to voting for Trump (much like the B-word in the UK) but also no-one likes Hillary very much either. The only place where I saw any support for Trump, bumper stickers primarily, was in Florida and that is to be expected being as it's known as the white trash state...Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.Comment
