The rise of Donald Trump is a terrifying moment in American politics

Ezra Klein couldn’t have put it better. We’re laughing all the way to the voting booth…but we’re dangerously close to being truly & absolutely screwed. There’s no telling the scale of the disaster when we find ourselves suddenly the victims of a Presidential #Trumpertantrum with Putin. These are two egos that need not clash. We have also come too way far in the fight for equality for all, to suddenly leap backwards by electing a racist and sexist egomaniac to the Oval. We need exactly the opposite. ~jg

“It’s so fun to watch that it’s easy to lose sight of how terrifying it really is.
Trump is the most dangerous major candidate for president in memory. He pairs terrible ideas with an alarming temperament; he’s a racist, a sexist, and a demagogue, but he’s also a narcissist, a bully, and a dilettante. He lies so constantly and so fluently that it’s hard to know if he even realizes he’s lying. He delights in schoolyard taunts and luxuriates in backlash.” http://www.vox.com/2016/2/10/10956978/donald-trump-terrifying?utm_campaign=vox&utm_content=article%3Atop&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook We are so busy laughing at Trump that we’ve lost sight of how dangerous he is.
