>I'm saying electing Trump was stupid beyond all comparison - but in general the American voter as a whole is stupid and lazy.

But you continue to avoid my question. In general, was the American voter "stupid and lazy" in 2008 and 2012?

If not, I'm curious to know how they became stupid in 2016.

Victor, are you familiar with the "hole" theory? Because you're digging yourself a bit one right now. :)
