    Trump is a total fucking dick. He is not serious about running. This is about lifting his profile. Remember, there is no such thing as bad advertising.

    Exactly, Neil. I don't think he will be president, but if that happens I will shudder and this nation will be a laughing stock. Just IMO

    I finally finished the debate (almost 3 hours long!) and I think it will mark the beginning of the end of Trumps campaign. He's just not comfortable discussing foreign policy and why would he, he doesn't know it. If he's not talking business or taking shots at someone he seems awkwardly out of place.
    I've never been ashamed to be a white American and I have ZERO guilt and no pussy liberal is going to make me feel I should.

    Trump is kidding, right? Yeah, he got the bid to build a casino in our small town a few years ago.
    Trump did nothing......just racked up some bills in town that he never paid. And this is a poor county. But the town idiots picked him because of his name.
    He just wants attention. Blah.

    Like him or not; believe he's running for real or not, election seasons SUCK big time. At least he is saying what a good majority of people think without turning the politician filter into overdrive. We are sick to death of being lied to by politicians. Most of them wouldn't say shit if they had a mouth full. I want to hear more truth and less politically correct bullshit and lies even if I don't agree with what the person is saying. For however long he stays in the race, I'll enjoy watching him irritate the shit out of everyone.

    problem with Hollywood style democracy is ppl vote on their perceptions through popular media ... Trump is not the type of guy i personally would want to spend too much time with ... but what has my personality got to do with how he would run the most powerful country on the planet ? ... bottom line is ... he is a good business man ... and i'm a liberal

    Is he a good businessman? He's good at getting attention, that's for sure. I've heard he's made more money off his name, and personal stuff than actual business. And we all know he's filed bankruptcy on his companies multiple times. How is he going to handle that with a country? You can't just file bankruptcy for the USA. Getting your name known and making money from TV shows and speaking engagements isn't going to fix the country.

    I'm torn on Trump. I hate politics because of what McCourt was saying, all the mumbo jumbo BS that comes out of politicians' mouths. I'd definitely prefer them to speak the truth, unfiltered (be honest but no need to be rude, etc...) but that's not what most people want to hear, because sorry, most people are idiots. That's what's made me just tune out for so long. I wait til closer to the elections when it's more concrete who is running and then try and make an educated decision on who to vote for. I'm registered as an R but I've voted for all parties (including I) over my voting "career".

    Excellent post !! Yes unfortunately a lot of people are..well idiots. To me it really is amazing in this day and age at how so many people really don't have a clue as to exactly what kind of power the president of the United States has thinking he/she is some sort of "king" or "queen"...when it comes to social issues all they have to do is snap their fingers and presto..laws are passed !!. Take my aunt for example. She is a big Huckabee supporter because she really believes that if he ( or Ted Cruz ) will win then during the first week of their presidency gay marriage will be outlawed in America. If Trump will win then say goodbye to "press one for English..press two for Spanish.." when you call up customer service as that will be illegal. Oh in the event that Christie will win buying marijuana in Denver or Seattle...you will go to jail. Now those guys probably would like to see this sort of thing happen but the reality is that..well good luck on making it a reality. Way too many people believe that the POTUS has all this power when they really don't so in the end they always end up becoming disappointed. One would think so many by now would get the message but apparently not.

    I don't think it is like that at all. Trump's appeal has nothing to do with his ability to be president, it has to do with his willingness to not act like a politician and say what is on his mind without the constraint of his contributors. People have been lied to for so long by both parties that it is refreshing to have a guy like Trump stirring the pot, making all of those candidates up there shit themselves. He's putting all politicians on notice by exposing the fact that the american voter is fed up with the bullshit.

    I am dumbfounded that he still has the support that he does. These people like him because he shoots his fat mouth off and they call it being real???? So glad to be Canadian and with a hot, young, hunky Prime Minister too who is even more gorgeous in person! Glad that tired lesbian looking Harper is done. Another scrotumless, devious, lying son of a bitch.

    Why is not Hillary doing better if you think Trump is not doing well. Maybe she is damaged.

    Trump wants to get rid of Muslims? Hmmm, why does that sound so familiar to me? Oh, yes. It reminds me of Hitler who wanted to get rid of the Jews. History is repeating itself, and while I'm not Muslim, it scares me.

    I'm not sticking up for him, but he never said that. He's outrageous enough without the added drama. IMO

    That would scare anyone. It's the Muslims, or least the radical kind that would like to get rid of us !

    Well actually the Donald's no Muslim proposal is lawful to an extent, the way I read it. I am referring to the 2011 version of Immigration and Nationality Act, which was originally enacted in 1952 and has underwent some changes since, most recently resurrected by the Patriot Act.

    As I read it, incoming aliens who are suspected of being terrorists or affiliated with terrorist organizations may be denied entry. Also, alien citizens who are suspected of terrorist activities or affiliated with terrorist organizations can be deported.

    He wants to put a temporary moratorium on issuing visa's until we figure out how to properly vet them. Clumping all muslims together is a mistake. You have to differentiate the radicals from the non-radicals. Not allowing people in based on faith is so unconstitutional it wouldn't get with 100 miles of the supreme court. The best you could do is not allow people in from terror sponsored states but then you have to not allow anyone in from those states regardless of whether they are muslim or not.

    It is amazing to me that when I turn on any of the leftist tv stations, CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC, etc....they all say that Trump wants to get rid of all Muslims.....they leave out the part where he says...until we can figure out what is going on after the California massacre.

    I just read that in vacation costs alone, the Obamas have cost us $70 MILLION since 2009. Do you know how much our veterans could have benefited from that money? If Obama and his ridiculous decisions haven't made the United States spontaneously combust, if Trump runs, I'm voting for him just because.

    Yep. That's where I am as well. Plus, as a person whose never, and I mean, never been anywhere close to politically correct, I am so sick to death of having to think about every single word that comes out of my mouth as opposed to just moderating my cussing because, as most of you know, I love my curse words. Trump is the ONLY politician that I personally have ever seen and while sometimes he steps in a whole lot of trouble, he says what he thinks. He's also not accepting a dime to put towards his campaign and will not accept any salary while he's in the White House. That means he will NOT OWE anyone any favors and as many of you may agree, one of the biggest problems in politics (local or federal) is the official being pretty much forced to give positions to or agree to any number of things they would not otherwise have done simply to repay a debit that never should have existed.

    It's because the polls are controlled by the media and at this point Donald Trump could get up on stage, drop trou and shit right into the microphone. The Pollsters waiting outside of this event would ask people "who do you think was the most controversial?" That is where you get the percentages from and that's why Trump is ahead.

    I think another reason is the fact that he doesn't give 2 craps about repub or Dems. He seems to be running as an independent. I mean, who do you want to run the country?....a lying left wing liberal, a socialist, or others that have no experience. If he does win, the status quo is in some deep shite. People are tired of the old repub and dem choices, they want to see if they can get our country back on track....that is why the Repubs and the dems are attacking him.

    To me the funniest thing about Trump's candidacy is this narrative that people are flocking to him because he's "not a politician" AKA "not a bad guy" AKA "not a liar". There is actually SOME truth to this. To wit: Politicians in America ARE liars, to some extent. All of them, or at least the successful ones. But the reason for this is that the American people are largely a bunch of gullible idiots, and the only way to be a successful politician in America is to feed these people lies which they find pleasing. So when people say they "don't like politicians", what they really mean is that they don't like having a mirror held up to them. The irony here is that the latest pleasing lie being foisted on the American people is precisely that since Trump "isn't a politician", he is therefore not just as much of a liar as those who share the dais with him. Honestly, anybody who would vote for Trump deserves to have him as their President, but I sure hope it doesn't happen.
    Sincerely yours,
    Upset

    Trump will rip Hillary Clinton or bernie sanders apart in the debates. Hillary whose a compulsive liar who belongs in prison or a communist who wants to give everything away free. Trump has made election campaigning fun again.

    Sanders has presented proposals how he would pay for the programs he promotes quite unlike our current spending bill that by the way, he voted against.

    Forever-27...I have to agree Trump has indeed made election campaigning fun again. Not a fan of him ( or Hilary & Sanders for that matter ) but at least Donald Trump has got a lot of people interested and talking. The others..well....unfortunately I myself have seen way too many folks think of them as well..jokes and not too be taken seriously. Between Christie being against legal pot when so many people want pot to be legal and Huckabee saying how he is willing to go to jail for Kim Davis I can see that. Being such a young guy himself one would think many younger voters would be his biggest supports unfortunately since so many young people support legal same-sex marriages while Cruz wants to make same-sex marriages illegal again in all 50 states well there goes the millennials. Those who keep bringing up "religious freedom" what does that mean ?? That I can slap a Muslim woman if she doesn't remove her burqa claiming that she is violating my religious beliefs ?? If I was a checker say at a Kroger and a lesbian couple shows up in my line do I have the right to not serve them claiming religious freedom ?? Cruz and Huckabee probably believes that I do have that right.

    Of course many are probably not taking Trump seriously either but at least he is making the election more interesting. Not being PC correct is a start.
