YAY or NAY?
Where will you be when Donald Trump becomes the next President of the United States of Americano?

Here is the context. In the upcoming US elections, it's starting to look like the Republican party is going to have to contend against a monster their radical rhetoric created: Donald Trump. The party is afraid of the damage Trump will do to the preferred Republican candidates.

Then there is ISIS in the middle east. This was a monster fed by both rhetoric and wealth of powerful Wahhabists (a sect of Islam) from within Saudi Arabia. Now it's starting to look like there is a barbarian at the gates of Saudi Arabia, and its name is ISIS.

Vote, peter puffers!

Lhota was the Republican nominee, and he genuinely was everything that the media are saying that the Republicans should be if they want to win over Democrats and moderates.

Lhota wasn’t partisan at all. He worked well as head of the MTA under the Democratic Governor of New York, before quitting to run for the mayoralty, having won praise for his handling of Hurricane Sandy.

Lhota was genuinely liberal on social matters. He favored legalizing same-sex marriage. He was pro-choice. And he supported legalizing marijuana. These were all views he had held since his youth, so it wasn’t like a last-minute switch.

The major complaint about the previous Mayor, Mike Bloomberg, was that he was turning New York City into a nanny state, telling people what they can’t eat and drink, etc. Lhota opposed that, while his Democratic opponent, Bill de Blasio, supported continuing that.

Lhota genuinely got on well with minorities. He was endorsed by Latino and Jewish organizations, as well as major newspapers.

Yet, he got only 24% of the vote! Admittedly, turn-out was also only 24%, so that could have been a factor. De Blasio won a huge majority in every borough, except Staten Island, where Lhota won 53% of the vote.
