>>Trump's appeal is to folk who want a strong man, one who ignores the usual checks and balances of the political system, to simply enact stronger measures.<<

I agree with you John. They're ready to line up for a fascist strong man. I think Trump knows this too. I'm pretty sure it's not enough Americans to get him elected, unless the (D)'s just hand it to him, which is possible.

I've been hanging out on the Trump thread, and some of the folks there seem to really WORSHIP Trump. Anything negative about him they just assume is a lie. They are DESPERATE for a hero to 'save America'.
