The most dispicable characters award of the 2016 election goes to the MSMedia. These people put profits ahead of everything and basically catered to the most disgusting of all the candidates Herr dRumpf. They turned the election into a cheap circus act from which they reaped huge amounts of profit. The second most disgusting group were the GOP candidates for the nomination, these cowards couldn't even find the backbone to stand up to Donald and in not doing so they all showed how totally incapable they were to occupy the WH. The 3rd group are sadly the millions of DEPLORABLE excuses for humanity that somehow or another bent a knee to the Orange one. What they saw in this guy is beyond me, but it reflects really poorly on most of them.

It's been a miserable stressful period in America, maybe unique in American history. What gets me over and over about Trump is this quality of being utterly unconscionable and utterly unaware. I believe he is a very deeply troubled individual. He is also beyond hope. If you were in the classic movie situation where there's five survivors and only space to rescue four people, and one of the survivors is Trump, you leave Trump behind without any guilt whatsoever.
