I guess the "schools" comment is a rather oblique shot at me as a former teacher.  The quality of education Oregon students receive is "another" topic.  Be happy to discuss education, but that's not the topic of discussion here.  

Indeed, six months ago Trump supporters "ignored" his lies and his crude, nasty treatment of other candidates.  Now, after six months, Mr. Trump is the GOP candidate and has six more months of increasingly frequent lies and a litany of mistreatments of others.....as several of his former advisors have said "the man is out of control."  This all, of course, makes it that much more necessary to ignore his ignorance, his prevarfications, his egocentrism and his nastiness to anyone who dares to "cross him."  Cognitive dissonance  posits supporters must either ignore his actions and comments or abandon their support of him.  Some have chosen the former.....more and more, especially Party leaders and down-ballot candidates,  are choosing the latter.
