Thank you, Robert Klose, for writing what too few seem to be willing to say.

I think there is a vile national bully running for president, who believes in inciting crowds with half-truths and outrageous, unsupported lies. I think his supporters just want to be part of a larger group, perhaps unwilling to think for themselves, but eager to follow simple invective aimed at selected minorities.  

In a democracy, voters must think for themselves and make difficult choices based on facts (not “alternative facts”), science, and morality. Mr. Klose made those points very clear.
