The late, lamented OP happily predicted a “rise of parties, concerned about their country and the well being of their citizens” which he thinks will lead to a war where Islam will be defeated easily, leaving so few practioners that it will die out as a religion. But of course, you’d be a liar and a fool to conclude that a person who thinks something that is for the well being of the citizenry is something they support. Of course it isn’t. Fuck, if you’re going to support this shite could you at least not be a coward as well as a bigot. ---

Oh, sure, we’ll always have garden-variety loons, of the “Obama is a Kenyan Muslim socialist!/global warming is a lie!” sort. (Or lately, the “Help! I’m in love with my cousin’s boyfriend’s uncle’s Schnauzer, but I’m allergic to Alpo! What do I do?” variety.) But the sort of nutcase who can come up with the Islam-o-meter and stealing the Ka’aba, these don’t come along all that often.

How are things going in that tiny bubble that you all reside in, cut off from all rational thought, intelligent thinking and a world where high levels of unhealthy ignorance flows freely throughout your bloodstreams? This is no surprise to me, but it appears that some of my predictions have already come true. Whilst you all were busy mocking and deriding Donald Trump and those who predicted his success, it appears that he has now clinched the Republican nomination, just like I wrote that he would in my OP. The next stop is of course the White House, and Crooked Hillary is going to lose in a most specatular fashion. Basically, I was correct, and you all were wrong. It is going to be a miserable 8 years for the majority of people on this site, and I couldn’t have wished it upon a nicer group of people. Don’t feel too bad though, because plenty of other simpletons were also wrong about the Donald. You all are living in a fantasy land, where your delusions have affected your thought processes and you simply don’t have a grip on reality. And the group thinking, extremist liberals on this site believe that it is I who is delusional. That’s pretty funny. Apparently, it will be I who gets the last laugh. I will be smiling all the way until November, and then I plan on having a massive celebration, as Hillary is defeated, and peace and prosperity will once again be restored to the once great nation of the USA. We and the country are in for some wonderful times ahead, and no amount of insults that anybody slings my way will change that. Defeat and despair has probably got some of you down, and I kind of feel sorry for some of you, but not really. Remember this OP when November comes. ---

So far, Trumpy Wumpy has earned less than 10% of the votes from eligible voters in this country. For him to win anything, maybe one or two states, he better start a new campaign. Don’t worry, we’ll remember your OP. ---

Blinky, we’re not disputing that electing Trump could cause a world war and lead to the death of billions. It’s just that the rest of us don’t see this as a reason to support him. ---

And this is the danger of the Trump candidacy, as it is clear and easy to see how he is normalizing the discourse of a neo-fascism with all the sub-texts of the genocidal reactionary approach to the ethnico-religious minorities. I thought originally the USA was just looking at committing the same gross blunder as the Italians in electing a showman-vulgarian populist like [Berlusconi](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silvio_Berlusconi). But at least Berclusconi was in real ways competent in his business affaires and had some limited sense of moderation. But he was an active and real disaster for the Italians. ---

I agree. He’ll almost certainly fail personally, but the neofacists he’s whipped up will still be there. And there’ll be someone after him who’ll try to tap into them for their own attempt at power. ---

I am here to congratulate myself for being correct in my predictions, and I am here to congratulate the King Emperor and savior of Western civilization, Donald Trump for winning the election, just like I said that he would. I am like Nostradamus compared to the bubble inhabiting, ignorant, reality denying and brainwashed, angry liberals that live on this site. More of what I predicted will be coming true soon, and there’s not a single thing that any liberal in the world can do to stop this, and that makes me very glad. Have a nice day. ---
