So trump is leading in 10/14 upcoming primary state polls.

Honestly I'm not surprised, America has been pretty racist and terrible in the past with stuff like the trail of tears and the Japanese interment camps, so it shouldn't be surprising to see that we haven't gotten away from those roots quite yet despite all the progress that seemingly has been made since.

I'm honestly not worried about trump, I'm worried about the morally regressive nature that his fan base represents, they talk about strength and high energy but the policies they support are based on fear and anger, the exact opposite of what makes this country great. We shouldn't be temporarily banning Muslims from entering the US or attempting to build a massive multi billion dollar wall to keep the Mexicans out (looked how that worked out with China and the Mongolians, lol) that goes against all the progress and lessons we have learned as a country. And don't get me started on the whole anti political correctness thing or people who hate "SJWs". It's basically an attempt to ruin all the equality progress that has been done since MLK. It's just depressing to see all these trump supporters, since they represent all the negatives about this country in a single political movement.

Like Obama said, I truly believe he won't be elected as I feel like we have made enough progress as a country and there are enough kind hearted people (which trump supporters would call weak or low energy) that these racists and bigots won't be able to take it away. This "movement" is the last dying scream of the dark, bigoted past in Americas history to me as the United States gets more and more liberal and progressive, enjoy it while it lasts I guess.
