Hard to say.  My guess is fear of Trump or support of Trump.  Hoping it's the former but my hunch is the latter.

Hoops, it may be both, but I suspect you are right. I'm hoping that the working class in this country are waking up to the fact that neither party supports them, hence the anti-vote. Time will tell.

Couldn't agree more.  The best way I can say it is although I'm not a Trump supporter, I can completely understand why others are.  My hope is not only what you state about the working class, but that if nothing else, Trump's ascension is a wake up call for those in Washington.

I would like to think Trump's ascension would be a wake call for DC, but I've about come to the conclusion that their arrogance knows no bounds.  Trump getting elected might be, but as of now, I don't see that happening.

I'm afraid that is sad but true, my friend.  

You know, Politicians love to claim their election is a "mandate" from the people.  Trump, if elected, would be actually be a mandate.  And perhaps the only true one of my lifetime.
