And you heard this from the only person here more cynical than you.

Haha! Perfect! You out-brilliant yourself with every post. "Certainty, even stridently offered, ain’t proof." So good. Coming from you!!! You should literally close your eyes, cross your legs, and repeat these words ten times before you post anything here. And I'm sorry, Mr. Jaded Cynic Dude, but anybody who is so starry-eyed and cloud-headed to think that Trump's caravan hate-mongering did not mobilize a significant number of voters is NOT a cynic. (And is also not someone who read any exit polls.) Ha. I can just see you in your smoking jacket at some douchebag cocktail party in the suburbs spouting off your wisdom. "You see, people are inherently rational. This caravan nonsense is intended to play on the baser emotions of fear and hatred, but it will get no traction, because the rational will always rise above the emotional. I, myself, and the most rational and unbiased man I know . . . ." You may not be the most cynical person on the board, but you are the person whose perception of self is the most disassociated from reality. So that's something, right?
