I suppose I am just a moron, but when I heard Gov. Paul LePage use the word authoritarian in his radio remarks supporting Donald Trump, I knew that is exactly what he truly meant.

LePage has displayed his own authoritarian mentality time and again. He and Trump share a dangerous and undemocratic dictatorial, authoritarian mindset.

Unfortunately we are stuck with LePage as governor until 2018, but fortunately we can avoid putting someone even worse in the White House by defeating Donald Trump.
