It is easier to believe crazy things if you are decoupled from people that will show you otherwise.

For centuries, the influential in this country arranged to take the things they wanted, even people. We recognize that we have a better lifestyle than people elsewhere in the world. Trump releases the shame that might cause us to consider repairing the harm we have done or at least work harder to justify our special status. No, it is enough to join Team Trump and call those people names. My dog would have the instinct to herd them, and she would be right.

Last count per NYT, there have been 68,644,941 votes (47.8%) this morning for Trump. So many voters, that apparently don't see {choose your favorite crisis} as a key issue either, it boggles my mind. What have those movements done wrong? If I didn't understand how difficult it is to steal an election (detailed in another NYT oped today), I might even say there was something fishy. Suggestions?
