they see the real colors of this man who has made a living of being the angry outsider.....and he is finally turning them off....as a man you offers little else except outrageous indignation on everything and whining excuses when things don't go his way

his temperament alone disqualifies him from being president just like trump's temperament does.....their is no leader or statesmen in either man
