This, it's a common practice to take sly digs at the opposition.
If Trump is elected, I'm sure World War III will start and there will be mass riots, just like Obama brought about Sharia law when he was elected
If he gets in, it'll all be forgotten quickly and 4 years will come and go, maybe another 4 if he's lucky and that'll be that. People assume he'll change this and that and completely forget a lot of things have to be pushed through congress itself. We all seen what happened when two sides couldn't agree in 2013. I doubt Trump would have unanimous backing of his own side either.
There's far worse things in America than Donald Trump, there's been far better and worse presidents.

So really, is it that unbelievable to see Trump become POTUS? again, this is a country that supports orginizations that kidnapped and tortured it's own citizens to attempt mind control

Domestically, the precedent is by far and away, the weakest head of state in the world. The president can only negotiate with Congress to get anything done. He cannot even introduce a piece of legislation. He cannot even spend money without the approval of Congress. The president is a contradiction in power, as internationally he is the most powerful leader, and this is one area where he has the great freedom of maneuver away from Congress. Domestically, the most important constituent the

R, the world won't be any different. America will still be typical America.
