I’m the MOST racist! How groups give people extreme views | Dean Burnett

From Republican presidential candidates to hard-core Corbyn supporters, we're used to hearing extreme views from all over the political spectrum and beyond. Why?

As a British person with liberal leanings, the ongoing coverage of the US Republican race to select a presidential candidate is often baffling. Much of this is due to Donald Trump, of course. Donald Trump, the ungodly offspring of a retired golfer and a beligerent tangerine. Donald Trump, a man who once heard the word "unspeakable" and thought "challenge accepted!" Just when you think he couldn't possibly be more openly offensive towards large groups of people, he reliably proves you wrong a few days later.

Despite this, it seems a large number of people still think he's the best person to be President, where he can bring about nuclear Armageddon by openly mocking Vladimir Putin's height at some international summit.
