Trump
This certainly doesn&#x27;t match what I&#x27;ve seen. All the people who think Trump is unfit seem perfectly willing to say so. All of the people who support him seem to be completely sincere in their belief that Trump would make a good president. I don&#x27;t see anyone giving any indication that they think Trump shouldn&#x27;t be president, but that they&#x27;re afraid to say so. There is no &quot;charade,&quot; as the author puts it.<p>It&#x27;s possible that certain Republican leaders fit the description. But plenty of high-ranking Republicans have been willing to speak out against Trump, and those who endorse him mostly seem to be sincere about it. And of course everybody on the opposing side takes pretty much every opportunity to trash him (IMO rightfully so).<p>What&#x27;s scary about Trump isn&#x27;t that people are unwilling to speak out against him. What&#x27;s scary is that so many people <i>actually want him to win</i>. Trump isn&#x27;t the problem, Trump is the most visible and frightening symptom of a massive wave of ignorance and insecurity among the American electorate. He&#x27;s the blood in the stool. Speaking out about how bad the blood is won&#x27;t really help, you need to go in and kill the cancer that&#x27;s causing it.
