There was another story on NPR this morning about trump and innuendo - but I only caught a bit. I need to go find it and listen.

His emotional appeal is crazy. I spent an hour listening to a relative espouse Trump's virtues. It is exhausting. "Steve - you don't think you are, but I'm telling you that you're a trump supporter. You just don't realize it. He's saying all the same things you are."

I really doubt that... But I think his rhetoric is super malleable and people choose to think that he is saying what they believe.

I highly doubt that.

I'm genuinely not sure which concerns/frightens/worries me more:

-this candidate thinks/talks/acts this way

-so many people are rabidly supporting him

-I have family members who support him
