“Well At Least He’s Not Hillary!”

Just a friendly reminder: every tyrant rose to power, always with some degree of popular support, while righteously railing against whatever authoritarian injustice came before. Mao did it. Stalin and Lenin did it. Hitler did it. Che and Castro did it. And so on.

So, to be someone cheering for some guy rising to power simply because he opposed some other control freak, puts you in the same category as the hundreds of millions of other dupes who have cheered tyranny into power, as their (misguided) solution to some other tyranny. Good job, gullible dupes.
