Stop the madness, GOP

Is this what Republican voters want in a leader? For a role model for their children? And as a representative of the most powerful, successful democratic republic? Really? Or have these Donald Trump supporters lost their grip on reality? Do they really want to take a chance on this level of insanity in a president? Please wake up from your stupor and stop the madness before you ruin our democracy and our emotional and financial well-being.
