Walk me through how I said that.

Because, from my point of view, the existence of idiots (even tons of idiots) in the Democratic party doesn't invalidate the argument that there are more idiots in the GOP than non-idiots.
1) You said that there are more idiots than non-idiots in the GOP.

2) I asked "Would you say that there are also more idiots than non-idiots in the Democratic Party?"

3) You responded "The Democrats aren't committing electoral suicide. So it's a no unless Sanders somehow beats Clinton."
1) True

2) Not sure what that has to do with #1, but Democrats don't have a huge red flag of idiocy (Trump) like the GOP does, so no seems like a reasonable answer.

3) Still don't see how that leads you to disagree that there are more idiots than non-idiots in the GOP, a premise that has nothing to do with the Democrats.

I see that you're still a complete fucktard. No surprise there.

I was never arguing about whether or not there are more idiots in the GOP than non-idiots.

But if you're defining idiocy as "voting for Trump", then unless Trump has attained more than 50% of the popular vote in all of the GOP primaries, then you would be wrong. That's how math works.

And surprise! You're wrong!
State Date ? Trump Cruz Rubio Kasich Spread
Popular Vote Total - 8,722,467 6,389,500 3,445,578 3,178,315 Trump +2,332,967

This doesn't even account for votes cast for the other GOP candidates that have already dropped out of the race.

That's reasonable.

I revise my statement to, of the people that have voted in GOP primary, the single largest group is composed of 100% retards. There are several smaller goups within the GOP primary voting population that aren't 100% retards.

There are more Viet Nam era draft dodgers in the GOP then in the Democratic Party.

This.

Trump isn't leading the GOP race because he's great. He's leading because he appeals to idiots. And there are a lot of idiots in the GOP.
There are idiots everywhere. Stop kidding yourself that the Democrats are somehow immune to idiocy.
And, again, you're the one who non-sequitor'd Democrats into this conversation.

Whatever. I still stand by that statement.

I never denied that there were idiots everywhere.

Tec walks into a science lab:

Tec to scientist "Watcha doin?"
Scientist "Studying bacteria. I left some bread in this dish last week and there is now more bacteria than bread."
Tec "There is bacteria everywhere. Don't be stupid."
Scientist "Yeah, but I'm only looking at what's in the dish right now."
Tec "Do you or do you not agree that there is more bacteria outside the dish? It's a yes or no question, dipshit."

Well, you did try to insist that I agreed with you when clearly I didn't.
4/26/2016 3:02 PM
You agree that Trump voters are idiots.

I only know a few personally. And of the ones I know, not all of them are idiots. They're just politically misguided. Grossly overreacting to frustration about "business as usual" in Washington.

I get the frustration part. I really do. But for God's sake . . . .Trump as the answer? Good Lord.
