    He is now using "Crooked" in his official, written statements...
    No class, what an embarrassment to this country and everyone who has a modicum of dignity.

    This doesn't mean he won't win.

    Winning also won't mean he has dignity. But he won't win, regardless of 'press nods'.

    I also find it interesting and insightful that he refers to the debate as an easy 'payday'. Goes to show he's not out there for public service.

    Why?
    He loves money.
    Always has and always will. He talks about his money at any given opportunity throughout his life and this campaign.
    His payday is beating Bernie because Hillary hasn't done it yet.

    Bernie seems nice but deluded. Hillary is the ultimate evil and Trump has the best interests of the nation at heart but has problems with his manners. All have problems but there is only one that is competant. Interesting to read through the commentary..

    Regarding the Sanders/Trump debate, this is just another case of Trump spouting off at the mouth without thinking things through. Of course he isn't going debate. There's no upside. But that didn't stop him from sounding like a jackass. Good thing he still took the opportunity to be a dickhead.

    ""Based on the fact that the Democratic nominating process is totally rigged and Crooked Hillary Clinton and Deborah Wasserman Schultz will not allow Bernie Sanders to win, and now that I am the presumptive Republican nominee, it seems inappropriate that I would debate the second place finisher," Trump said. "Likewise, the networks want to make a killing on these events and are not proving to be too generous to charitable causes, in this case, women’s health issues. Therefore, as much as I want to debate Bernie Sanders - and it would be an easy payday - I will wait to debate the first place finisher in the Democratic Party, probably Crooked Hillary Clinton, or whoever it may be."

    The upside is that he is elevating Sanders and making the Democratic contest that much more contentious. Just by suggesting a debate he has made unification between the two factions that much more difficult. It's chess not checkers.

    Signs a Child is Bullying Others
    Kids may be bullying others if they:

    -Get into physical or verbal fights
    -Have friends who bully others
    -Are increasingly aggressive
    -Get sent to the principal’s office or to detention frequently
    -Have unexplained extra money or new belongings
    -Blame others for their problems
    -Don’t accept responsibility for their actions
    -Are competitive and worry about their reputation or popularity

    He is pushing socialism in a country that simply can´t afford it. That is why I say delusional. It doesn´t take that much understanding of economics to understand socialism destroys countries. The population will be impoverished if the social agenda wins out. I see it looks enticing but it isn´t a workable solution in the biggest debtor nation in the world. In fact it is the opposite as prosperity of tomorrow will be brought forward to today. This is immorality at it´s core. I doubt 1% of the people have an clue what is going on. Personally I don´t like Trump and his ego makes me sick but he tells the truth and you know where he stands.He basically even said USA will default on it´s debt which is amazing coming from someone running for office. 19 trillion dollars in debt and the unfunded liabilities make it in the hundrends of trillion. Who pays this back?? How can the population afford it? It can´t.. War hungry Hillary is the one to worry about as it is more of the same elitist bullshit. The elitists have the people where they want them and like people to be dependant on their system. Bernie and Trump are anti establishment and putting up a fight. As I said Bernie seems nice and caring of the lower class but his policies are delusional. I understand why people like Bernie but if any of his supporters spent 10 min understanding the econmics of what he proposes then they will learn it´s frankly a bad joke. I certainly wouldn´t put my kids futures at jeopardy by voting in a socialist. There will be no middle class left. Hillary just means endless war and crony capitalism. The only one to really shake things up here is Trump and like him or no,t it is at least a step away from the failures of Bush, Clinton and lacklustre Obama that wasted 8 yrs and more than doubled the countries debt but still labor force particiaption is at a 40 yr low. Some big changes are coming but please don´t tell me I´m wrong about Sanders being delusional. You need to sharpen your pencil bud.

    He said your delusional because you believe the Trump had the country's best interest at heart which everyone knows is full of crap , so you agree with the thoughts he's spewed maybe woman should pay a price for having an abortion , the deportation of 11 million illegal immigrants the banning of Muslims even for a month would have major repercussions etc etc etc all he does is spew lies he said Clinton wants to abolish the 2nd amendment which is a total fucking lie !!!!!

    Just because Fox news said it, doesn't make it true.
    Take your labor participation stat, that is a much bigger piece of misinformation than the official unemployment figure.
    You do realize that little children and retired baby boomers are included in that stat that Hannity harps every day without making any distinctions.
    Your broad condemnation of "socialism" is typical McCarthyism drivel, you ignore the democratic controls that keep it in check and I am sure you fail to acknowledge that socialistic principles and actions are the only thing that keep our economy afloat when the capitalists you adore wreck the economy and leave us in the gutter. FDR must be a figment of my imagination I guess...

    You must look through the racist, fascist,chauvinist propaganda the media spews out and listen to him wanting to secure borders, reform the military, telling truth about the nations debt, exposing Hillary being in the pocket of big corporate america whilst he is pretty much funding himself on a much smaller budget etc Time to start thinking for yourself. I can´t stand egoistic people but the one thing that is even worse is people like Hillary that are a danger to the world we live in. What a disgrace and disaster the Arab Spring has led to. Endless suffering for what? Radical new change has to happen if this world is to become a better place. Most people tend to be Republican or democrat and thats as far as the thinking goes. Thats the problem with democracy as many people are ill suited to make rational decisions. There are a lot of things I disagree with Trump on but as I see it he offers the chance of new more positive beginnings . Something that hasn´t happened for decades.

You lost all credibilty bud.Look it up.You have clearly been brainwashed by the socialists. What exists now is crony capitalism which I am against. Things need to be more free market to allow a fair marketplace where everyone has equal opportunity and be rewarded for hard work. Socialism is when people rely on government and take no responsibilty for their life. This is a recipe for diaster. I do think there needs to be sensible safety nets but not ones that sentence the population to endeless suffering and dependance.

    I am atheist and think women have the right for abortion. Living in scandinavia and seeing what is happening here I can completely recommend that the vetting process is up to scratch with immigration. I personally am friends with a few muslims from Turkey and Iraq but also have been told by 2 others they hate me because I am from a country that supports USA. Really confronting stuff when religion blinds people like that and you are shown hostility when acting polite and nice.

    You are blaming Hillary/the Obama admin for the Arab Spring?

    Let's pick out one of your points. He said in April that he would end the debt in 8 years. Of course that means he has to end the deficit first. Can you please give me some rational ways he will be eliminating the debt in 8 years, without raising taxes and cutting SS benefits (his commitment). I'm open to ideas.

I do think there needs to be sensible safety nets but not ones that sentence the population to endeless suffering and dependance.
    The USDOL stays don't include children, but Hannity's oft quoted numbers do.
    The official stats are absolutely including agin g baby boomers, which have skewed the data in a number of ways. Pointing to labor force participation now, whenever nobody ever had anything to say about it before Obama, despite it being in decline since the 90s, is a dishonest tactic when you conveniently ignore record job growth and unemployment decreases.

    Again, we don't have socialism here, we have a democracy with socialistic controls that keep the "free market" from imploding, as history has shown is an incontrovertible inevitability.
    Bernie is trying to bring the opposing forces back into balance to end crony capitalism, which is another inevitability under your "free market".
    The idea that Donald Trump would end crony capitalism is seriously laughable, this is the guy who openly admits to buying political influence in order to gain a competitive advantage in the market.
    You are looking to a crony capitalist to solve the crony capitalism problem, and you think Sanders is deluded?

    Everybody wants a free market until they have to compete in one, then all the sudden they are drawing up non-compete clauses and spending money to influence politicians in their favor...
    But anyways, back on Trump's short bus...
    In San Diego he went on a long rant taunting the judge who will be presiding over a case involving his failed and fraudulent "university".
    How much dumber can he get?
    No drought in California either, according to the GOP nominee, how dumb is America?

    DUMBER than you think!

    You americans need to convince Bernie to step down if you want to see him in a debate.
    He has a very good point, "Why debate a person in second place"?

    Hillary or Trump are your choices and you all know it.

    As for this latest riot http://www.bbc.com/news/election-us-2016-36404323 from thugs he is right again "Fantastic job on handling the thugs who tried to disrupt our very peaceful and well attended rally

    Lol. Why debate a person in second place? Because of Bernie doesn't win, his supporters will literally be the ones to determine whether Hillary or Trump wins.
