The increasing agitation of the anti-Trumpers

Mr. Trump is not so much fighting an uphill battle as having to claw his way up a near-vertical, icy precipice without any help - even without basic equipment such as ice-axes.

 

I've been going through quite a lot of data - articles, surveys, opinion polls, editorials, and the like - in an attempt to understand the undercurrents of the Presidential election campaign at this time.  I don't think I've ever seen such frenzied agitation by, and within, the incumbent party's campaign, or such blatant, in-your-face efforts to scare and/or intimidate and/or disgust the electorate into rejecting the non-incumbent party's candidate.  It's almost at desperation level - partly driven, of course, by continued support for Mr. Trump from a significant proportion of the electorate.  Sadly, at least some of their slash-and-burn tactics seem to be working.

Let's look at a few examples.

    Looks like Monday and Tuesday we might get some great dirt on Hillary released.

    An interesting read should you have the time. I would much
    rather have a revolution than allow my country to be invaded
    by communists and non-white invaders. The communists and
    the non-whites took over SA and if you just look around, you
    can see how well that turned out. I'd rather have a Hitler than a Stalin.

    Agreed and thanks for the article. I posted it from Claremont before and it is indeed excellent.
