    If Trump had the balls to wear a natural, non-labratory created hair style, he wouldn't look a day younger than Sanders.
    Not that it matters at all, but it is a bit of a nice symbol for who they are as people.

    You shouldn't pick on how people look it's not very nice.
    What did Trump ever do to you?
    how about the orange spray tan? He makes a conscious decision to look like a jack-o-lantern. is that acceptable to critique?

    Could be a legit Trump fan but could also be a plant...
    Seems pretty dangerous to dismiss it in the completely unfounded hope that it's a plant.
    Unfounded? It's a guy covering his face with a handwritten sign. Nobody knows who this person is.

    Exactly my point. In this situation, it's actually dangerous not to assume the worst. Because if it IS the worst but you convince yourself it's not then you're all fucked.

    And you can't really pretend those feelings don't permeate Trump rallies. It's cognitive dissonance.

    No you can't. It's right there out in the open. One photo of a racist who happens to be covering his face doesn't change anything.
    Isn't the KKK supporting Trump for crying out loud?? And other white supremacist groups too?

    Yes, watch it all the way through. Brilliant.

    Trump could be green with ice cream cones sticking out of his head and Sanders could have crab pincers at the ends of all four limbs and a tree growing out of his penis for all I care. The only thing that matters is what these people say, do, and believe.

    A Question of Illegality Arises After Ben Carson Endorses Donald Trump
    ..."Carson then said that Trump had promised him a role in his administration, ‘certainly in an advisory capacity.’ Asked by NewsMax’s Steve Malzberg whether this meant a cabinet position, Carson declined to ‘reveal any details about it right now, because all of this is still very liquid.’

    Federal law expressly prohibits candidates from directly or indirectly promising ‘the appointment of any person to any public or private position or employment, for the purpose of procuring support in his candidacy.’ The penalty for violations could include fines or a year in jail — two years if the violation was willful.

    The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a ThinkProgress inquiry about whether such an illegal offer was made to Carson. Prior to Carson’s departure from the race, Trump suggested that Carson ‘might be “pathological,” like a “child molester.”’”

    They are all racist yeah all of them if you support Trump your a racist there I said it. !!
    At the very least, I feel like anyone who supports Trump has no real problem with racism.
    Exactly they all say the same shit I'm not a racist just because I support Trump , well I'm done being PC if you support Trump I'm calling you a racist ...
    Your run-on sentences really confuse me sometimes.

    Also, mods, I do believe that I'm being called racist for supporting a presidential candidate. This behavior shouldn't be allowed here.

    Lol. Why don't you just try and explain to us how you can possibly justify your support for Trump as a non-racist instead of tattling? It would be so much more interesting.

    I know more about American politics than most Americans do.
    America has a huge impact on Canada. I also have American friends. I have a vested interest in American politics.

    Canadians are welcome to discuss American politics and we join them in discussing their politics as well.

    Don't you have a desire to refute the things said? I would at least make an attempt before I told on someone.

    I didn't say Canadians weren't welcome to discuss. They're more than welcome.

    I just find it "odd" like how you find it "odd" that conservatives like Pearl Jam's music.

    And I don't need to refute the things said. I've refuted the things said many times now and you all still ask the same questions expecting a completely different answer.

    If anyone wants they can donate here https://secure.donaldjtrump.com/donate/
    I know he doesn't need the money but maybe donations from the train could be used to further some race relations group.
    He takes visa and mastercard too so there are plenty of ways to donate!

    I am PJfanwillneverleave1 and I approve this message.

    Why is it odd? You don't think the US affects Canada in a huge and significant way? Are you not aware of how completely interconnected our cultures and media and economies and politics are?
