re: #560 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

Michael Moore was the one who warned us that Trump could win. I ignored him at the time, but he was right: it was all a matter of mathematics. All Trump had to do was to carry all the states that Romney won in 2012 (all but a given) and then get the four Rust Belt states of PA, OH, MI and WI.

And that is where the GOP (and their confederates) concentrated their efforts and succeeded.

He was right but he’s still a purist asshole who learned all the wrong lessons from 2000. Same as Sarandon and Nader. I think part of them enjoys the Republicans being in power for the same reason right wing radio enjoys the Dems being in power.
