This is some true hate coming out from leftists in US.

Always found John Oliver over the top but this was plain and simple scaremongering.

It's Not Just The GOP – The Democratic Party Is Also Imploding
Whichever side emerges victorious, both Republicans and Democrats should face up to a much bigger truth: Neither party as currently constituted has a real future. Fewer and fewer Americans identify as either Republican or Democratic according to Gallup, and both parties are at recent or all-time lows when it comes to approval ratings. Just 39 percent give Democrats a favorable rating and just 33 percent do the same for Republicans. Not coincidentally, each party has also recently had a clear shot at implementing its vision of the good society. If you want to drive down your adversary’s approval rating, just give him the reins of power for a few years.

– From the post: Thoughts on Election Day: Relax—Both Parties Are Going Extinct
A rising star within the Democratic ranks, Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii, cut herself off from the party’s establishment by resigning from her post as vice-chairman of the Democratic National Committee and endorsing Bernie Sanders for president.

Her position with the DNC required her to stay neutral in the primaries, but she said that “the stakes are too high.” She announced her decision on Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” and made a video where she explained her reasoning.

Gabbard, an Iraq war veteran, said she knows the cost of war firsthand. “I know how important it is that our commander-in-chief has the sound judgment required to know when to use America’s military power—and when not to use that power.”

In her endorsement for Sanders, she said America needs a president “who will not waste precious lives and money on interventionist wars of regime change,” presumably referring to the war in Iraq and strategy in Libya, led by then-secretary of state Hillary Clinton, both of which she has criticized in the past. Although generally hawkish in her foreign policy views, she is opting for the Vermont senator as a candidate who “will usher in a new era of peace and prosperity.”

It stands to reason that Trump is a pretty avid golfer himself. Believe it or not, with all his riches, this may be the closest we see him to leisure. Trump once tweeted: “Don’t take vacations. What’s the point? If you’re not enjoying your work, you’re in the wrong job.” Words of wisdom from one of the most successful businessmen in real estate.

Donald Trump had already expressed his disapproval for David Duke years ago. It is disingenuous to accuse Trump of being associated anyway with the KKK.

See from 0:22 onwards:

Trump says things like they are. I highly value people who are intellectually honest with themselves and others

Mr. Trump's 757

Even Air Force One is mediocre in comparison.

The GOP has two theories on how to stop Trump. Both are likely to fail.

There are two theories for how to keep Donald Trump from getting the Republican nomination.
Theory No. 1, the one that has been the go-to for months, is that consolidating the anti-Trump vote behind one candidate would, at long last, result in someone who could consistently beat Trump.
Theory No. 2, which has emerged in the wake of Trump's early primary victories, is that it's actually better to keep everyone in, splitting the vote enough that Trump won't get a majority of the delegates — and forcing a contested convention.
The evidence at hand suggests that neither of these theories would actually be successful — and, accordingly, that Trump cannot be stopped.

Why would the GOP want to stop Trump? :confused:
Donors, lobbyists, and special interests.

Why would Jeb Bush support the downfall of Assad knowing if that happens, all the Christians would be killed? o_O
