    You're right he's an idiot.

    But who's the bigger idiot?

    drumpf?

    Or......



    His supporters?

    Close call ..
    I don't think it's close at all. Trump is playing his supporters like a fiddle.

    I've been pretty amazed with Trump supporters that I've come across.

    My Mom was a big McCain/Romney fan...doesn't like Obama at all. She is actually going to "write in" Mitch Daniels when she votes. She can't stand Trump.

    My brother and sister in law are both rabid republicans. Rush Limbaugh/Glenn Beck bible beaters....neither one of them can stand Trump. Not sure if they will end up voting for him or not.

    The support does not seem to be coming from your average middle of the road republican. Of which I was one until 10 years or so ago.

    At the end of the day, most Republicans (like your brother and sis-in-law) will likely go home to the GOP. I think the same can be said for the Dems as well. All of these fence sitters are looking for a reason support their D and R and they'll likely find it. That's why I don't necessarily see a wipe out in the popular vote. I see tight polls leading to election day and then it comes to ground game. I think at that point the Dems growing advantage in the electoral college will come through and be a strong E.College victory, in line with Obama/Romney.

    Yeah that sums it up nicely.

    Let's just hope that Clinton's campaign follows the Obama campaign strategy.

    There do seem to be a lot of Republicans who are straight up renouncing Trump though. Strongly. Both within the party and just normal citizens.

    True, but I'm not sure if that is so different than the Bernie supporters. They may never have been a Dem to start, but most probably voted Obama. I think both Trump and HRC have their share of dissenters. The question is how many HRC dissenters cross to Trump rather than 3rd party. Those are probably your white male Dems (in name only) in some of the rural areas around the country. I guess my point is, for all the noise, I'm starting to think the numbers play out in a fairly traditional way.

    I think you can support an "idiot" and not be an idiot yourself. not every supporter is a bigot, that I'm sure of. but a lot of them really honestly believe that it's a better idea to have a businessman in the white house than a career politician. they find him more forthright and therefore trustworthy.

    there seem to be quite a few on this site alone that are known intelligent contributors yet seem to support Trump.

    I like to think I am in this category even though I don't necessarily think he is more trustworthy. There are far more of us who are actually in the "world is fucked category and while she won't fix it he might fix it".

    I would say that anyone who thinks Trump has a trustworthy bone in his body doesn't know anything about the man, and they need to do some research. There is a reason not a single business associate of any sort has ever endorsed him. Read when his past biographer wrote about him too, lol. Pretty damning when it comes to what kind of "man" Trump is. Not to mention how almost everything that comes out of his mouth during this campaign is a blatant lie, lol.

    I don't see him as a liar. I see him as someone who is just winging it on a daily basis. The problem with winging it is that you open yourself to daily contradictions. So when people ask whether someone is honest and trustworthy I could say I think he is honest but I don't think he is necessary trustworthy. Does that make any sense? I'm not sure myself.

    He's a fucking liar.

    Remember the investigators he sent to Hawaii to uncover the secret Obama birth certificate? It was all bullshit.

    "I have people that have been studying it and they cannot believe what they're finding," Trump said an interview that aired Thursday Morning.

    Asked if he has assigned people specifically to search in Hawaii, Trump said, "Absolutely."

    Curious about that one actually. He might have actually sent investigators? Do we know if that was a lie? They may have produced no results but that doesn't necessarily make the "they cannot believe what they're finding" a lie. Either way...the man is certainly a bullshit artist to some extent but is his bullshit disqualifying? I'm not so sure.

    Well....one would think that if he
    A: Sent investigators (which was to find out that Obama's birth cert was bogus) and
    B: Those investigators "can't believe what they are finding"

    Then he would have surely released that information....right? What was the point in doing it?

    I lie is a lie, whether it's made up on the spot (like he usually does), or it's had some thought put into it (which he sometimes does). Standing there just making shit up while winging it is still lying IMO. I would also say that a guy who got a quack doctor to sign a fake letter about his health is a pretty massive liar on top of being untrustworthy. Let's also not forget his many other lies, lol. What about the one where he claimed to have never had knowledge about employing illegal workers? ... Sigh, this paragraph will get too long.

    I don't disagree with this. My guess is he never thought he would go very far but thought what the hell let's see where this bullshit takes me.

There is a reason not a single business associate of any sort has ever endorsed him. Not to mention how almost everything that comes out of his mouth is a blatant lie, lol.

    I don't see him as a liar. I see him as someone who is just winging it on a daily basis. The problem with winging it is that you open yourself to daily contradictions. So when people ask whether someone is honest and trustworthy I could say I think he is honest but I don't think he is necessary trustworthy. Does that make any sense? I'm not sure myself.
    He's a fucking liar.

    Remember the investigators he sent to Hawaii to uncover the secret Obama birth certificate? It was all bullshit.
    http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/04/07/trump-sends-investigators-to-hawaii-to-look-into-obama/
    "I have people that have been studying it and they cannot believe what they're finding," Trump said an interview that aired Thursday Morning.

    Asked if he has assigned people specifically to search in Hawaii, Trump said, "Absolutely."
    Just one example...
    Curious about that one actually. He might have actually sent investigators? Do we know if that was a lie? They may have produced no results but that doesn't necessarily make the "they cannot believe what they're finding" a lie. Either way...the man is certainly a bullshit artist to some extent but is his bullshit disqualifying? I'm not so sure.
    Most people who know him well and/or have worked with him (and have no vested interest in him winning) say that virtually everything that comes out of his mouth is bullshit. Completely made up of whole cloth to suit whatever position he wants to take at that moment.
    I don't disagree with this. My guess is he never thought he would go very far but thought what the hell let's see where this bullshit takes me.

    I agree w/ this.

    Might as well change the title of this thread to "Let's all hate on..." Since it's filled with venom so toxic one would think posters here actually personally know the guy...

    ...but they don't. It's all a well planned ploy to fool the public into thinking he's serious about wanting to lead this country for 4 years. The joke is on us.

    ".....venom so toxic....". a bit much, don'tcha think?

    Have you read the hate filled posts? Toxic. How anyone can be filled w/ so much hate for someone no one knows personally (and that doesn't just go for this forum, I know many people consumed w/ bitterness and hate for Trump that it affects their health), is beyond me. He's not worth it. He's not worth expending any energy over.

    Lol, okay Jesus. You are just so loving and accepting it's fucking blowing my mind! :lol: Again trying to prove how much better you are than the rest of us.
    And how do you feel about, oh, say Hitler? Osama Bin Laden? Martin Shkreli? Kim Jong-Un? Do you really need to know national leaders, mass murderers, or all-out slime balls (like Trump) personally before you're willing to judge them? ... Don't say yes, because no one will believe you. BTW, where were you, Jesus, in the Clinton thread? I don't see you defending her honour over there, lol.
    Who do you know whose health is affected by their hate of Donald Trump btw? If you care about them, I suggest encouraging them to see a doctor, because they are probably sick from an anxiety disorder or something, not hate for Trump.

    People seem to forget that there's a VP debate as well. I hate both but Kaine is Bernie compared to gay conversion therapy Pence. Kaine will destroy him.

    Yeah there is pretty good ammo against Pence. His anti gay bill in Indiana was a huge shitstorm.
