    They disagree with him being the GOP nominee... yet they all said they would support him.

    So fall in line like a good follower ....

    have fun.. I refuse to be baited into these ridiculous discussions. It truly embarrasses me to be American right now as I watch this unfold.

    I have faith in the American people to look past this nonsense, vote responsibly, and not allow this lunacy to continue. We are better than this!

    This is going to end badly.

    Donald Trump's rally in Dayton, Ohio, took a dramatic turn Saturday when a disturbance broke out behind the candidate — causing Secret Service agents to jump on stage and form a wall around the candidate amid the commotion.

    It wasn't immediately clear what occurred, but as the audience cheered "Trump," the barely fazed billionaire gave a double thumbs up and quipped: "I was ready for him, but it's much easier if the cops do it."

    The incident happened a day after Trump canceled a rally in Chicago as hundreds of protesters waited for him, leading to scuffles between the protesters and his supporters.

    "Paid Protestors" ? You're a Douch


    and yes I'll say it... how the hell does a Fascist NeoCon become a fan of a band that is obviously Liberal in every possible way... Does it make you feel good to sing along to Glorified G?

    When I was young and naive I listened to Ted Nugent, after his ridiculous comments and birther crap I wouldn't listen to even a single song of his today.. because I hear his ignorance and hate first...

    Okay who's paying for this post?

    I was waiting for someone to use the "Pearl Jam are liberal, so you're not allowed to enjoy their music" comment.

    Seriously, I listen to PJ because I love their music and the great people that they are. And you're saying that I should pretend they don't exist because they have opposing political views? Very immature comment.

    p.s. Calling me a douche is a personal attack. I hope admins are watching closely.

    AND I KNEW YOU WERE.. you bait a lot of members with that...>>>Yet you sit on you computer and dog everyone here that shares the bands viewpoints?

    I never said you could not enjoy their music... Please don't quote words I did not say..

    It was a question.. A legitimate question. I truly do not understand it. Its like an Atheist listening to Christian Rock or Klan members listening to NWA.. . doesn't make a lot of sense to me.





    Sorry for calling you a douche... my apologies..I should not have repeated it.

    I just heard it... someone said it in another thread....It's not me.... You know like Trump always does.

    I 100% agree with her on this one. Trump has finally become dangerous.
    Not a chance America will let him become President though. I still have enough faith in that.

    I have a bad feeling about it... This is going to become violent... If Trump wants to be a leader then time to show it.

    He is leading. He consistently says whats on his mind and there is a lot of truth to the fact that many, many others feel the same way but won't ever say it.

    Hence the reason why we're referred to as the "silent majority" sometimes. We just let the liberals throw a hissy fit until November

    Agreed.
    Now if all that anger energy was used to save the planet instead.

    30-45 percent of voters in a Republican primary hardly constitutes a majority of anything.

    What are his plans? The campaign has no depth once the BS is wiped away.

    Other than a wall, no muslims, and "I'll make good deals"?

    Seriously... sway me.. What are his actually policies?

    Exactly... it's the Tea Party... plain and simple. 40% of just the GOP is hardly a MAJORITY... and they are Far from SILENT..haha

    Any numbers the dems get it is celebrated.

    Not really.

    It's there but never talked about by them.

    Ummm we won the last two Presidential elections.... Not a math expert, but pretty sure that's a MAJORITY.

    Maybe. My point was only that no number less than 51% can be considered a majority. He hasn't hit that yet. The majority of Republicans so far are voting for candidates other than Trump.

    If the majority of Republicans are voting for candidates other than him, then how is he winning the MAJORITY of the GOP primaries and caucuses?

    This brings it full circle why people should vote.
    He is winning from the majority of actual voters not necessarily from the majority of repubs.
    Get off your asses people and vote this year.

    Because there are more than two candidates running. Trump isn't getting a majority of the Republican vote. He is getting the most Republican votes. Those are two different things.

    Didn't you watch the video? My comment was in the context of the rest of my post. He is dangeeous now because his actions are now directly leading to violence.
