Hillary's Popular Vote Lead Passes 2.5 Million

25. Some 17-21% of Democrats are CONSERVATIVES

to various degrees who mostly always vote for the Republican candidate for president. In 2016, though, something like half of our Democratic conservatives chose Hillary.

I tend to view most of 2016's third-party voters as people who never could be expected to vote responsibly to protect our nation from the predators on the right. THEY did not disappoint.

My shock and horror arise from the reality that today a large majority of conservatives, many of them good, normal people in other facets of their lives, are in the insane grip of a political partisanship so strong that in its service they turned their backs on intellect, morals, lifelong notions of social decency, and even the teachings of their religions. I did expect more to be what they and we need them to be.
