: : So it's going to be Trump (last name only) versus Hillary (first name only). And it appears that there are some women planning to vote for Trump. Amazing.
: Actually, Hilary is damn lucky to have an idiot like Trump running against her. With the bias against women in this country, a reasonable Republican candidate might be able to defeat her despite her experience as a US Senator and the US Secretary of State. Trump, being a TV buffoon, has no chance against any Democratic candidate. Therefore, it is assured that next year we will have our first woman president.
You are right. If a reasonable Republican candidate (not an idiot like Trump) said the anti-Muslim and anti-Mexican things Trump has been saying, a lot of people might very well vote for that candidate. Many in this country seem ready to vote for a bigot - if he would hide it behind an appeal to nationalism.
