I never said it here but have said it to my son who is about the only one I verbally talk politics with. It was my belief all last summer and fall Trump wanted to be in the news and influence the political landscape. But a funny thing happened. There are more ignorant fools in this country than he thought and he was able to garner their support. You can see on his face during debates that he knows he is over his head. But it is now too late to do anything but move forward.
His rise will be a phenomenon for someone to dissect in the future...I never thought he'd make it past 30% support and now he's reaching 50%. On the other side you have someone that has major trust issues and is being investigated by the FBI and the other candidate is an avowed Socialist.
My problem with the thought of wanting "change" , one must understand whether or not the change is good. Blind decision making is rarely the right direction.
Wrong again in so many ways. Typical.
That's where leadership comes in...and we haven't had any/much in the past several years.
I thought this early on. In fact I even considered the possibility that his attacks on Muslims, Mexicans, McCain, etc. were intended in a twisted way to pollute his campaign and sway voters away, but it had the opposite effect. I personally don't see him enduring 4 years of being POTUS. He needs to work with Washington and neither side of the aisle will have the time of day for him. Unlike the real estate world where you don't need friends, you just have to be better than anyone else, Washington would be a toxic environment for him if he becomes POTUS.
Maybe he's hoping for a brokered convention so he can slip away and let someone else have the nominee...or maybe have a say in who the nominee is.
You know he likes to be a builder...maybe he wanted all along to mold the GOP nomination process...and now he's in a good position to be a part of the selection if he wanted to bow out through a brokered convention.
Wow. That would be a huge pie in the face of his supporters. They want him because he's not one of the establishment. And in the end, Trump would help pick one of the establishment.
Meh, would be a net positive in the grand scheme. Maybe offer a free plant to the first 50 or something. That way we could attract some of the far left Bernie crazies as well. We know how much they like free ****.
It's ok Bru.
I am or you are by not acknowledging the very reason the young people are flocking to him is because of Free tuition?
Oh I give Sanders credit - from what I can tell he tells you how he see's it and doesn't seem to be swayed by any special interest.
