Not that we needed any more confirmation that you're a dumbass but... http://news.yahoo.com/consul-homeless-man-beaten-boston-mexico-native-123003430--election.html Scott Leader told troopers after his arrest: "Donald Trump was right, all these illegals need to be deported," according to a state police report. Court records show Scott Leader served a year in prison for a hate crime against a Moroccan coffee shop worker after the Sept. 11 terror attacks, The Boston Globe reported.
The only immigrants who should be afraid are the illegal ones. And muslims who resent the west despite choosing to live in a civilized society over home. Trump will ensure that. If we want to blame Scorsese for every Irish hate crime in Boston over the last 10 years, we could. Or, We could grow a pair. We could pull the sand out of our vagina, and think big picture. Big picture. Sadly, many liberals on this board do not have the intellectual capacity for that.
Winnie the Pooh, Thanks for the trolling. It's entertaining. "The Donald" will remain as "The Donald." His political ambitions won't lead to the nomination. If you really think he's the savior of the Republican party, or the next POTUS, we're all doomed. He's a great businessman, but he'd be a terrible leader. He belongs in Hollyweird and has no business speaking to the middle class about anything other than his hair and divorce advice. It's a sad, sad state of affairs when the "conservative" front-runner happens to be the most offensive, socially-inept billionaire in America. His vitriol seems to have reached you already, with your remark about female anatomy as an insult to men. Congrats. You can have him, with your Faux News. I'd take any of the republican candidates over him if I had to. Well, only at gunpoint. America will do better. The Trump Hotel in Vegas is dope though. I guess that's one of very few positives for Donald.
Which means he has a history of doing this... Was Donald his excuse for influencing him to do it the last time...??? Would have been more believable if he blamed rap music.
Listen closely at the very end: <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/c4_UiUrRcbg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> It is pretty evident that Trump's popularity has to do more with the growing trend of white nationalism in this country, and less to do with him simply being politically incorrect. I hate political correctness too -- but I hate racism and nationalism more. I really hope Trump wins the nomination though. It is best we get all the simmering culture war and race issues out on the table so we can start dealing with them as a society. The longer they are allowed to exist below the surface, the more of a cancer to our national culture they will become. A Sanders v Trump race is highly unlikely, but it would be ideal for bringing the fissures and divides in this nation into clear focus, and allowing a new level of discourse (one not controlled by the establishment Republican and Democratic party bureaucrats and consultants).
I absolutely haven't followed Trump ever before. But I would have to guess his popularity are because... 1- He's blaming everything on that group over there. It's a popular and easy message. 2- He's not taking money from the rich folks like the other Republican candidates. He's a true outsider in a way.
Hey I liked it when Trump came out against the "carried interest" loophold which allows the hedge fund billionaire guys to be taxed at at a lower rate than the rest of us. Granted he probably wouldn't mention it if his money had the carried interest rule as his primary tax rate, but still. However, this may cause the typical little guy "libertarian/conservative" to be upset that Trump wants to have billionaires pay more taxes.

You think you're more likely to take note of white nationalism messages if you're white? I'd say it was just the opposite. At the same time, some joker yelling 'white power' from the crowd hardly constitutes an endorsement from Trump. I won't say HamJam is wrong because there does seem to be a racial hostility dimension to Trump's popularity, but that video doesn't tell you much.
Guys, this must be getting serious; Commodore is posting various social media snippets without context.
if you listened to the guy, he's trying to take the country back from corporate interests aka citizens united (u a fan?) and lopsided trade deals where major multinational corps can export middle class jobs to china & mexico with no consequence i like what im hearing from the only non-politician in the crowd...him and Sanders are both hitting on notes that are refreshing
Does it occur to you that Trump's response to every policy question is trust me, it'll be great? It's all rhetoric without substance. Even the things he claims he'll do like build a wall that will be "great" are complete nonsense according to people who have studied the subject. At what point do you demand actual substance from him?
Now who's being gullible? You actually believe "we need to take the country back" has anything to do with oligarchs and trade deals?
I agree -- it doesn't tell you a whole lot. I just wanted to share it here because I thought it was grimly funny. The guy screaming out sounds like freaking Clayton Bigsby. I guess it is gallows humor. While I was here though I decided to mention my impression that there is a growing trend of white nationalism in the country, and that I think that this is why Trump is getting so much support. So, I don't see the video as proof of anything, just a conversation starter.
I highly doubt that one of those 'very well qualified people' Ms. Bush is referring to is Donald Trump.
