What blows my mind is that all these people vote. You wouldn't think so many people who seem disengaged from politics would show up to vote ever 2/4 years.

It's also why I didn't want to run against tangeranus in 2016. I believe HRC won without the russian & comey interference. Still, I knew some local yocal on a barstool, who never votes, would be motivated to vote for tangeranus b/c he was openly racist. The barstool crowd loved that crap. cruz wouldn't have turned those types out to the polls.
