The Cold Equations

Something else you might find entertaining comes from James Freeman of the Wall Street Journal:

In August, 36% of respondents said they had a somewhat or very positive view of Mr. Trump, compared to 52% with a somewhat or very negative view. These numbers look terrible, until you see Mrs. Clinton’s. Just 30% of respondents said they had a somewhat or very positive view of her, compared to 53% with a somewhat or very negative view—23 percentage points underwater. This is not quite the worst polling she’s ever had in this survey. Mrs. Clinton did manage to sink to 24 points underwater in April of last year—right after the email scandal broke.

and that’s what happened. Americans have become like the Bourbons, who “learned nothing and forgot nothing”, as Talleyrand put it. More bourbons, less Bourbons!
