Words have meaning

In this time of the Novus Populares (Trump and Sanders) versus Novus Optimates (Clinton et al), this kind of language has meaning:

There is nothing I would like more than to take on and defeat Donald Trump, someone who must never become president of this country.

and the Glenn Beck / Brad Thor: #neverTrump and #NeverEverTrump

OK.  If it is true that if you encourage your followers that Trump "must never" become president.  How far do you think your followers (or an unhinged follower) might take it?  Pretty easy to interpret this in a very negative and permanent way.

Told the Missus the other day that it looks as though our current time frame is beginning to rhyme with the very late Roman Republic (40-30 BCE).  This is illustrative for those who might consider executive protection and being a bodyguard as a line of work.  Don't do it.  Early 21st Century America might become known as an era known for political assassination leading quickly into organized violence. 

Lord help us have cool heads, and realize that the world won't end if someone is elected and rules are followed and everybody acts like rational adults. 

Rational adults in 2016 America?  Oh.  We're fucked.

Crazed American, out.
