    Donald Trump is putting together a powerful voting coalition of everybody but Muslims, Mexicans, blacks, women, and fans of the Bill of Rights.

    Trump is on a roll. Now he has posted a meme that seems to be based in Neo-Nazi circles

    I have almost reached the point where I'm in complete disbelief when it comes to Trump and how many supporters he has. This man is out of his mind, and dangerous.... and leads the GOP polls. Much of America seems to actually be going insane. It's worrisome to say the least. Still not worried he'll actually become president, but I am worried about the millions who support him. I think it's quite scary to live next to a nation with so many people like that. Must be extra worrisome to reasonable Americans. :fearful:

    It's infuriating. Knowing that we are 3/4 retarded is part of being American, but seeing it on display with unabashed pride is too much.

    There was some interesting research on Trump supporters. They, by and large, tend to be white, male, middle age and have less than a college education. These are the people who tend to feel like the American Dream has passed them by as we continue to move towards a technology based economy. None of this should surprise anyone as he has made the targets of his anger things like NAFTA, CAFTA, immigrants, etc. All of these are perceived threats to a block of Americans.

    Normally this would not be a concern as the white middle age guy is a core GOP constituent, so that's a primary play. But here's where we should be concerned. Does he appeal to Northern Union voter? The union continues to lose its clout and they tend to block vote less than historically. I think this is where Trump could cobble together general election votes even if he loses traditional GOP voters like the business community (who he has alienated to some extent with his protectionist arguments).

    This is Trump to a T right here. Arrogant, racist, factually wrong, and yet well connected and unapologetic.

    I still think he is going to run independent. The GOP is going to start shunning him and he's going to bolt....I can't wait

    The GOP can't win without the black and hispanic votes...he has completely destroyed that

    I posted a link to the video of him impersonating that disabled person, then called him a name. I guess telling the truth is not welcome.

    The video I posted was probably more offensive than whatever you called him. There is a rat in our mix.

    I would say that most conservatives and even more conservative liberals are tired of big ineffective US government with lots of waste. So many programs need fixed but it may not be ultra PC to change these things. Too much abuse of power by officials and corporations. Trump is an idiot who just talks louder and sooner than the other candidates and gets attention. People are tired of the bullshit. Some things Obama has been good but some not... We need change for the better. I would hope most common sense conservatives would not vote for Trump.

    True, I'm not a fan of Paul, but he's the only republican I trust when it comes to foreign policy. Everyone else wants to piss on the constitution with the whole ISIS situation. I'd vote him over Sillary if held at gunpoint to choose either one.

    No, the majority of Americans aren't even thinking about the election. It's only the hard line idiots who are showing up in the polling sets...he panders to the lowest common denominator, that will work for now... Imagine him trying to win a general election. Even America has more class than that. I hope.
