Hope to God this isn't a popular sentiment.

I know there's absolutely no chance for a third party candidate to win in the US. I'd still vote for the PSL or CPUSA - or just not vote at all.

Trump's run for President used to be funny, but his recent statements on immigrants and muslims are hardly hilarious or beneficial.

I don't know what you're talking about. The fact that such a buffoon is still being taken seriously after that is hysterical. Mankind clearly deserves whatever it may be about to unleash upon itself, and I intend to sit back and laugh at the carnage.

It's fine to be a misanthrope sometimes.

When our principles are tested is the only time they truly matter.

I did a quick survey of the major and minor polls (for what they're worth) asking who viewers believed won tonight's debate.

On all polls I found, Bernie scored 84-95% while Hilary scored 5-15%. Similar to the numbers from the previous debates.

Of course the media will likely proclaim another victory for Hilary.

Impressively, Bernie supporters have not yet relented their domination of Clinton's FB feed. Even ABC's promoted #maytheforcebewithyou post is flooded with comments stating that the public isn't buying her bullsh*t.

That's pretty deep. Did you write that or is it a quote?

Even blind squirrels occasionally stumble across a nut now and then.
