What the country is desperate for is a President who is a proven success as a businessman. Someone who has actually fucking ACCOMPLISHED SOMETHING in his life!So from what I'm seeing here, it appears that Trump's supporters are confident he can (a) get things done because of his deal-making skills and the strength of his personality, and (b) get things done that will reflect a consistently conservative agenda.
Is that a fair overview?
.
The country flirted with the 'First AA' President's Socialist agenda. How did THAT work out??????
Obama had ZERO experience in business, finance, geo-global politics, ME policy. Fucking NIL!
The fucking 'OJ jury' and White guilt soccer moms voted for a fucking 'community organizer' based SOLELY on the color of his skin. OH the sweet irony! The 'OJ jury' and the White guilt soccer moms ended up in worse circumstances under Obama's attempted Socialist wet-dream.
NEVER AGAIN!
This time the country must have a hard nosed 'geterdone! businessman as President.
Rich people are generally happy living their lives without the headaches of the job of president. Of course there have been wealthy presidents in the past. The successful ones turned their talents to working for the country instead of for themselves. However political office is generally a job of sponging off rich lobbyists. Getting a representative with intergrity is hard to find these days.I think you have missed the point. Trump was one of those donors who expected the politicians to perform for him. He knows the game and used it to his advantage. He is quite honest about it, isn't he?This is what happens when you no-longer represent your constituency. When you've sold out to special interests and rich donors.And maybe explain it without the standard hyperbole and partisan BS. Just some honest, solid analysis. Or maybe provide a link to a piece that someone has written that calmly and reasonably explains it.
I think this "Fox News is the enemy" thing is the final straw with me. I'm now completely lost, and I feel like Sandra Bullock in Gravity, floating away from reality with no way to get back.
To wit:
It's like half the party has just snapped.
- The aforementioned darling news network is, overnight, the target of at least as much derision as MSNBC
- A bombastic New Yorker who is clearly not a conservative is running away with the nomination
- That same candidate can literally say the most ridiculous things and it only makes his support stronger
- Suddenly, nationalism & populism clearly have more energy in the party than "conservative values"
- A nihilistic, "I don't care, just blow the whole thing up" attitude seems to completely permeate the party
- The slightest nod toward legislative cooperation is simply no longer allowed in public discourse
- The Establishment, whatever that is, appears to be more hated than any Democrat
Exactly what is the goal here? And does anyone care if this inter-party schism is healed?
.
So you nominate one of the rich donors? It would be like you're pissed at your CEO for not coming out with a new product in 20 years then promoting the head of new product development to the job of CEO because he's funny.
So, if he wins the race and becomes president, the game in the White House stops. He doesn't have the wealthy donors who are expecting him to act for their agenda, he's working for the agenda of all the people. I don't think many candidates can say that. Even Bernie who I think is basically honest will have favors to give and play the game.
That is the most incredibly ignorant leap in "logic" I've ever heard.
What you basically said is, "Politicians with rich donors are bad, because they'll make policy to benefit rich people. So we should just elect the rich donor himself, because HE'LL care about everyone!"
Or, y'know, maybe he'll just make policy for rich people directly, and save on the middle man. Duhhhh.
And maybe explain it without the standard hyperbole and partisan BS. Just some honest, solid analysis. Or maybe provide a link to a piece that someone has written that calmly and reasonably explains it.

Yeah, it's vexing. The GOP has given in to the mistaken notion that people want more of the same, just not as bad as what the left offers. Makes no sense, I know. So, Trump comes along, tells the establishment to fuck off, and its refreshing. After years of Democrat lite, O'Connell, Boehner, Bush, etc., people enjoy watching somebody not pulling punches.
So, we get Trump. Thanks GOP.

I'd rather see Trump negotiate nuclear treaties, trade pacts and bringing jobs back to Americans than have Obama and Kerry try.

Well, then, let's run right out and recruit George Soros!
Voting for someone because of his bank account makes no more sense than voting for someone on the color of his skin.
I don't know if you've noticed, but real-estate mogul and President are NOT the same skill set.

Donald Trump might be a New York City Conservative, but he is not a true Conservative.
I believe those that are supporting Donald Trump are doing so to punish those that voted for President Obama and gave us two terms of President Obama.
Anyone that believe Donald Trump is a actual Conservative and those that oppose him are RINO's are the really ignorant voter in the GOP tent.
Trump is not Lincoln.
Trump is not Grant.
Trump is not Teddy Roosevelt.
Trump is not Ike.
Trump is not Reagan.
So why would anyone support a New York City Conservative which is a moderate at best?
Trump talk like Joe McCarthy and would most likely be the embarrassment Richard Nixon became.
A true Conservative would never support anyone like Trump, and if they say they would then I would have to question their Conservatism!
If a Conservative want to support a Conservative then vote Cruz or Paul and if they want a Neo-Conservative then vote for Rubio, Bush or Kasich but if they want New York Conservative that invokes the memory of Nixon and McCarthy then Trump is their man...
Bullshit!It was hijacked by the Nazi element within it. Today's Republican Party really does resemble the Nazi Party. All the hate and disdain for the least fortunate among us. And the lunatic obsession with starting more wars.
It all started when the Neocons seized control. They're very dangerous people with a Nazi mentality. They want our poor to just die, or even have them locked away in cages. They want them disappeared. And they desperately want to start WWIII. I can't call myself a Republican at this point.
The Party began its descent into dark madness when it allowed the Neocons (Nazis) to seize power. It was mainly the radical Christian fundamantalist Conservatives who supported their rise. These madmen do want their Police State and WWIII. The Republican Party needs to remove them from power. Before it's too late.
I don't think Trump would want to control the lives of 300 million people. He wants what's best for the country...and that is what makes the difference from the other candidates. Most of the other candidates are using their position to enhance their own personal wealth.
You have GOT to be shitting me.

Pretty simple. Our nation has been becoming progressively dumber, more shallow, and less mature with each passing year. This is just the latest iteration of our coming collapse under the weight of our own spoiled ignorance.

We finally agree on something
Jackson
There is nothing "fucking stupid" about his policies or his handling of the media and his challenge to Political Correctness.
The rest of the world think it is fucking stupid that Republicans would nominate Trump
The rest of the world is benefiting from an America that has been the World's Bitch on Trade and Immigration.
And is wrong.
Once again, Republicans think trade agreements have to be 100% in your favor to be acceptable.....the real world doesn't work like that
No Republican has said anything to support you claiming that.
Where did you get that?
Where did I get that?
From the party of no compromises
It's not the specific positions on issues that is troubling. We all have positions, and, fortunately for us, we're able to vote for people who will represent us to advocate for those positions. If you and those who oppose you are confident you can win at the ballot box with those positions, great, let's vote and see what happens.And maybe explain it without the standard hyperbole and partisan BS.

Latino conservatives: If Donald Trump is the nominee, we will not work to elect him
So this:
Produces this
Because of these people
In their efforts to get a non-Establishment candidate have rino'd themselves right into a Hillary Clinton Presidency, a loss of the Senate and a ton of seats in the house.
Column: Trump exploits rational political ignorance
Wanting to enforce our democratically enacted immigration laws and NOT have record trade deficits every year is hardly "BAT SHIT CRAZY".
Ironically, pretending it is, is Bat shit crazy.
The issue with Trump is, to use one of zillion possible words, is his character. Endless amazingly shallow platitudes ("it's gonna be great', "you're gonna love it", "we're gonna have so many wins", good gawd, on and on and on), a never-ending string of juvenile personal insults, a personal history that simply doesn't match his current rhetoric, behaviors that make a reasonable person wonder what he would do under pressure, and an overall immaturity and lack of grace is a pretty unattractive package for a lot of people in normal situations, let alone someone who could become President of the United States and leader of the free world.
The individual issues can be debated, let's do it. But this guy is a horrible messenger -- this is a guy who makes Jesse Ventura and Ross Perot look like dignified statesmen -- and his various behaviors make having a reasonable debate almost impossible.
.
As I have pointed out, we have had this message before.
The messengers were attacked and marginalized by the PC MSM.
Trump's methods seem to be what is required to smash though the lies of the Left to get the message to the People.
Patrick Buchanan didn't spew "shallow platitudes" or "a never-ending string of juvenile personal insults" and did have a personal history that did match his rhetoric and was very mature and dignified.
And he was chewed up and spit out by the Media and the Left.
You don't like Trump being "The Messenger"?
Then blame Political Correctness for shooting every messenger.
NONE of the above links come from MSNBC dumb ass. They are election historic facts. Trump supporter aka Tea Party member--in their efforts to get a non-Establishment candidate has effectively rino'd themselves right into a Hillary Clinton Presidency, along with a loss of the Senate and a ton of seats in the house. This is election HISTORY & MATH.
Republicans are the minority party at 41 million, Democrats are stronger at 46 million, and Independents are the largest party today, representing 40% of the entire electorate. Independents will NOT vote for far right candidates. ..."
Sad but true. And a self-inflicted wound.And maybe explain it without the standard hyperbole and partisan BS. Just some honest, solid analysis. Or maybe provide a link to a piece that someone has written that calmly and reasonably explains it.

What is wrong with Bernie Sanders?
Wanting to send kids to college?
When everybody has a bachelor's degree, you'll be able to wipe your ass with one; about as useful as a screen door on a submarine.
Never mind who's going to pay for it.
Medieval European Literature 202 is not a prerequisite for flipping burgers or cleaning toilets or collecting food stamps or welfare after graduation.
How many students graduated with a degree in Midieval European Literature? One?
We don't need to shell-out untold billions, only to cheapen Bachelors Degrees to the point where they're used as a substitute for toilet paper.
Not everyone will pursue a college degree. Those that do will be able to afford it......the rest can flip burgersYep....The additional knowledge and skills of the American workforce is what matters
When Bachelor Degrees are as common as toilet paper, burger flippers and toilet cleaners can console themselves with the idea of being better-educated worker bees.

There is no reason a lack of a college degree should relegate anyone to just flipping burgers.
