Trump 2016: Yes. We. Can.

1%ers think its plebeian to rely on 'income.' The tranche might start low but it ends in people worth billions.

Sounds like you need to vote for Trump!

 

he's going to have to offer some policy stances at some point, right?

What kind of ratings do you think "The Surreal Life:Whitehouse" could pull? He cold fill all the cabinet positions with d-list has beens and have them all move in the West Wing.

It could be bigger than the Super Bowl.

 

Fwiw no one has really offered anything in depth but he has offered up ideas that establish him as a populist and certainly different than the rest of the Republican field in my eyes. It's odd to say that Trump is populist but he kind of is with the ideas he has put forth.

 

What policy has Hillary Clinton put forth?

Trump has put out his immigration policy and said he will release his tax plan in 3 weeks

 

Hillary came out today against rape. Your move Sanders

 

Since when has a lack of policy 16 months in advance of an election ever been an issue with politicians in general? Funny the media tries to spin rhetoric as anti-ordinary

 

Nobody has ever come forward with great as a blanket policy like some kind of eight year old.

 

Either that, or just reward a bunch of government contracts and land or mineral rights to shell companies.

 

I F'n knew it!

 

Ok, I have to rant a bit on the latest Trump nonsense:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/d6Jot3qB3pc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

What in the holy hell is wrong with the people supporting this guy. Look, this country has a lot of issues -- we can almost all agree on that -- the small Muslim population in the country is not the cause of them though. That is just idiotic. And this guy asking Trump the question, he thinks we need to "get rid of" Muslims in this country? How is that going to solve any of the issues we are all dealing with?

And Trump doesn't disagree with him, or say something about how there are good Muslims in this country that he hopes will support him, or anything to mitigate the racism and nationalistic xenophobia being expressed -- he just says that "bad things are happening" and "a lot of people are saying that" and "we are going to be looking at a lot of different things" -- that could be taken as tacit approval or acceptance of what that idiot in the audience was saying.

Not only is this ignorant, cowardly and pandering on Trump's part, but it could help some of his more racist supporters justify irresponsible and reprehensible behavior toward Muslim citizens -- similar to what happened to the homeless Mexican man in Boston.

I don't want to throw the term fascist out irresponsibly, but, can someone please tell me how a person who is appealing to traditionalist and conservative people, but not with conservative economic policies, but rather with xenophobic and nationalistic rhetoric of revitalizing the country to a supposedly better era via racist and ethnic focused policies -- how is that not seen as fascistic?

Whether he wins the nomination or not, the extent of his popularity in this country is concerning to me. What in the heck could be wrong with my fellow Americans to where a man such as this is an attractive candidate to them.

I typically say that Republicans and Democrats are pretty much the same thing, and that one is just as bad as the other -- if Republicans nominate Trump though, I am not sure I'll be able to say that any more.

 

Can't this is too surprising. You have to question the intelligence of anyone who wants to vote for Trump.

Donald Trump’s surge is all about less-educated Americans

"In the last few weeks, Americans (and the media) have watched in awe as a New York real estate magnate prone to bellicose behavior and hyperbole has become the GOP's leading candidate for the White House.

But how did this come to be? A lot of it has to do with education.

Trump's support is strongest with Republicans in the Midwest, conservatives across the country who do not have a college degree and (perhaps not surprisingly) those who report the most negative views of immigration and Mexican immigrants in particular, according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll released last week.

To be clear, the poll found that 60 percent of all Americans support the idea of offering undocumented immigrants currently in the United States some form of legal status, and 57 percent told pollsters they believe that immigrants strengthen the country. But there are plenty of people who see things differently. And those people appear to be concentrated among whites, Republicans and those with lower levels of education. Take note of the peaks below."

I wonder how many people would vote for him just because he wins the nomination? There is a very real rift between the left and right. I'd NEVER vote for a Republican. Ever. Ever. Never.

 

No. We. Shouldn't.

The final 2 real candidates are Cruz and Rubio, soon they'll pick between them and that'll be that.

 

Is being anti-pc basically ****ting out vague platitudes with no nuance?

 

i would bet every single thing i own that trump will not be the next prez.

unless he somehow improbably wins the R primaries, there would have to be a huge scandal on the Dems side to lift him to the whitehouse.

this also shows that a portion of the republican voters are even somehow dumber than i ever thought they could be.

bravo

 

muslim women at trump rally just sitting there gets heckled by his racist supporters, and of course they end up kicking her out
