To call it alarm-ism is simply invalidating the fears of millions of people. He has said inflammatory things towards minorities, immigrants, he has said incredibly disrespectful things towards women. There has not been such a divisive candidate in years. It’s perfectly understandable for people to be angry and afraid, especially since he was not elected by the popular vote."
I really appreciate your saying this, as I am the one whom an earlier poster was shaking his head at for being alarmist. And Trump himself (a five-time draft deferrer) was quoted as saying he would bring back the draft.
