That isn’t the point. The point is that primaries were held (or in some cases, not held) based on a belief that the man would be fit for office, and the fact that he isn’t was being hidden from the voters participating in those primaries. I’m far beyond hoping for honesty from our politicians on either side, but I would classify this as fraud, albeit difficult to prove.
I think too many people on both sides consider it “legal if you don’t get caught” to do basically anything they please. And I think the fact that each side acts a lot further apart on issues than we actually are is just as sad. There’s no middle voice anymore. Either you consume left-wing media and hear their reactions to the 5% radical right or vice versa. All it means is that most Americans agree that 10% of us are batshit crazy.
