No, it's definitely worth talking about. We have spent endless pages belabouring the obvious, why should this particular bit of obvious be exempt?

Anything that further reinforces the point that Trump is not only an unsuitable candidate surrounded by clowns, but also a terrible and pathetic human being, should be a continuing focus. If anything, we need less semantic quibbling over exactly how to describe Trump's arrogant obliviousness, and more detail on his every misstep, ill-considered tweet, and shady business practice.

It's perfectly rational to loathe Trump and be fearful of him becoming President. I've yet to see a rational argument in favour of him, even the blowhard libertarian obsessive here divides his time between downplaying Trump's lunacy and upvoting Clinton's and the Democatic Party's flaws, because Trump is an appeal to emotion incarnate, with no substance whatsoever that can be coherently argued for.

The world is shades of grey - but some greys are indistinguishable from black.
