Some other time I linked a site that said 25% of the population had some diagnosable mental illness.
That seems low. There's no way in hell it's below 50%.

That's what I think the number was.
I bet severe stupidity would look like mental illness to a layman, so who knows.

I'm not counting that. There's a somewhat easy line to draw there, and we already have diagnoses like dyslexia and dysgraphia. I even submit someone without medical training can discern the difference.
Tell me, G, is your MiL merely stupid and inconsiderate or mentally off the rails?

She was the former, and is becoming the latter.
And those pictures are so huge I can't even read them trying to scroll side to side because by the time I get to the right side I forgot what the left side said.

Right-wing Hispanic appeals to Florida Jews.
The Florida senator, facing a must-win primary Tuesday in his home state, said Trump's approach amounts to an anti-Israel policy that renders the U.S. ally vulnerable to Palestinians who are not interested in peace.
"When I am president, we are going to take a side and we are going to be on Israel's side," Rubio said during an event featuring Jewish and national security supporters at Temple Beth El.

Wife: I decided to go vote.
Me: Couldn't find any other way to waste 30 minutes?
I rode my bike while she voted. I won.

That's the wrong way to look at it. We're going to get to choose.

I have a bunch of relatives constantly sharing things on facebook from liberal sites about how evil and stupid you are if you don't like Hillary. I keep hitting "Hide all posts from *liberal site X*" and they keep finding new sites to share.
One of the cuter ones was, "I only repost things from liberal sites so that other poor liberals know they aren't alone."
Yeah, that's a problem they have.

My feed is mostly Bernie for whatever reason.
Person: How do I sign up for Bernie's free healthcare? Oh wait, I already voted!
Me: Was it the checkbox that said "Give me other people's money"?

All the checkboxes say that. There's not one serious candidate that has come out against publicly-funded police, fire, and road services.
