Ten percent of the SFWA did vote for him in all his misogynist white supremacist glory, which does strike me as "alarmingly close to the mainstream". Given that there's a basic filter of "capable of writing and selling at least a couple works" which presumably clears out the real droolers.

At 10%, the crazification factor for SFWA is considerably lower than that for the general US population.

Thank you. You rendered my response more concisely than I did, so I deleted mine.

Ten percent of those who voted. If I remember the number of voters wasn't all that high.

And the excuse someone had for voting for him so the Cabal wouldn't get a hold of the treasury! was amusing.
