    Are you living in an asylum, or just in USA?
    Maybe there’s something in the water where you live?

    PS: The fact that Trump is a presidential candidate, and has a chance of winning, is evidence that USA as a country suffer a serious mental disease.
    The number of politicians in congress that are outright conspiracy theorists and obviously crazy is also evidence for that.
    Crazy is the new normal in USA, and I feel really sorry for all the rational even brilliant Americans that have to live in that environment.

      Of course some people have mental illnesses, but the badness in politics is largely a result of a corrupt system. We could talk about the electoral college, campaign financing, gerrymandering, capitalism, patriotism, etc., take your pick.

      It’s not about individual people being morons, although various people are on various topics, including me of course, but rather that we are feeling the effects of systemic problems.
