Trump is a great businessman but he would not make a great President.

Don't want to get political, but will say that Donald Trump was one of the inspirations for the Superman revamp Lex Luthor of the 80's.

I would take her over Trump in a heartbeat.

Really!! Hilary would be a horrible President! She just screams shaddy.

Don't worry Liberals care more about Trumps than the GOP. The GOP is using Trump to troll the liberals

 

[Black Narcissus]

It seems like every 4 years the republicans come to town with their circus show. Lawd. I choose the lesser evil of the two when it comes down to it. My gal is mexican, breh. This bastah already lost any shot with me.

Leafar,

More secure than under Obama for sure, who has let Putin have his way in Eastern Europe, and just gave Iran the deal of the century, allowing them to spin 5,000 centrifugues with a cushion of 24 days before an inspection, and import billions of dollars.

How secure is a nation that is badly in debt, and has its politicians “ bought “ by other corporation and nations? Or a nation that does not have a secure boarder?

Trump has some Reaganesque qualities on defense, space, and foreign policies. Its not that hard to see, and as such I think the USA will be safer under him. He’ll bring the fight to Isis and call them for what they are.

Illegals can get government aid, but our veterans cannot? Something is very wrong here.

The only thing Trump needs is a better speech writer and campaign manager to soften his message a bit.

Do you seriously know anything about Reagan? That's not the administration to use if you're trying to tout competency. The Reagan administration is pretty much defined by ballooning debt, scandal, sowing the seeds for Al Quaeda, being Saddam Hussein's best friend giving him weapons and turning a blind eye to his use of chemical warfare, while selling weapons to Iran under the table, and of course...amnesty. Please don't use Reagan as some kind of positive example. In today's political climate Ronald Reagan would be Obama on steroids.

WOW. Reagan took over a bad economy and turned it around, built up the national defense, was pro space, and essentially changed the map of Eastern Europe.

And he did it without a huge bail out as Obama had, and had far less debt.

It is fact that Obama has accumulated more depth than all the other presidents combined. For shame.

You did get one right on Immigration. That's about it.

Wait, there are actually people that think Trump is capable of governing a country properly?

You can laugh Trump off, but with a combination of people apathetic about voting to people that actually listen to what he says, the ****er could win by default.

I find that increasingly unlikely each and every time he opens up his mouth.

Trump's success can be owed to his dear old daddy and bank/government intervention in his businesses.

McCain was a POW.

Trump was and still is a POS.

Yes Trump got his start up via inheritance BUT he made those millions into BILLIONS so that counts for sometime.

McCain was a POW.

Honestly no one on the Left cared about this until Trump came along and trashed him.

Look Trump is NOT going to get past the first state primary so don't get your panties in a bunch. My God if the GOP knew it was this easy to troll the Left they would have pulled Trump out sooner lol

First of all, I'm Canadian. I have no stake in this game.

Secondly, I'm not getting my panties in a bunch (wtf?). Trump is a d*ck and a troll. Either he's really that stupid that he believes what he says, or he's just trying to rile people up. Either way, the guy is an egomaniac.

Trump is also pissing off the GOP. This isn't a left vs. right thing (like you always try to make it out to be). It's a common decency vs. asshat thing.

Exactly. No decent person whether they be left or right or neutral would ever belittle a POW especially in the public media sphere. Doing so is low and petty and pathetic. So of course people on the left and every other decent person is going to take issue with Trumps remarks. Who cares if some of the people who are upset had never even thought or cared about POWs prior to this. All that matters is that they realize here and now that what Trump said wasnt right.

I havent thought about McCain being a POW in a while, but Trumps remarks still piss me off. Picking on and ****ting on POWs is low. And as an American Im going to take issue with Trump talking down to our POWs.

Love all these people drinking up that FAUX news kool aid in here. For anyone to say Trump is somehow helping the GOP and "trolling" liberals is so laughable it makes my side hurt. I guarantee you if the GOP leadership had the option to shut that clown up they would do so in a heartbeat. He isn't doing anything to liberals, what he is doing is really turning off the undecided and independent voters from the GOP brand which is the last thing they want after being trounced these last 8 or so years

Has Fox News not reported on the Chairman of the RNC calling Trump about his immigration comments? That alone is enough evidence that Trump has pissed off the GOP leadership.

The GOP needs the latino vote. Trump burnt himself with them. And now he has pissed off veterans. These are two groups that the GOP need. So one would need to be entirely divorced from reality to think Trump has a chance of being chosen by the RNC to be their candidate. He is toxic for the party.

Especially considering the RNC doesn't usually become publicly involved in the campaigns at this early stage.

Oh, I was just commenting on the fact that Herakles seems to think Trump is somehow "trolling" liberals and being in any way helpful for the GOP. I'm pretty sure that is one of the funniest, delusional comments I have ever had the joy of reading here in the politics section

 

[Marvolo]

And as far as Im aware he maintained his "Im right. They're wrong." attitude even with the RNV chairman so ITrump is likely already written off as a persona non grata.

 

[DJ_KiDDvIcIOUs]

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I hope Trump gets the nomination and I will vote for him just based on the simple fact that he will screw this country up so bad the public won't vote GOP again for decades to come!

 

[Soapy]

Why would you want that? The two party system sucks, but I would much rather have two viable parties than one viable party.

 

[DJ_KiDDvIcIOUs]

I would much rather never have the GOP come into power again in my lifetime

 

[Soapy]

That seems dangerous.

 

[Frodo]

I still think the guy is clown and not a single vote has been cast yet. These are the dog days of summer and no news.That said, I will say, as someone on the left of the spectrum, that I think liberals are spending way too much time and energy on Trump, when candidates like Bush and Walker, who are true threats , are able to position themselves as the "reasonable" candidates to the mainstream.
