The Donald for President

I think any smart Republican would bash the living hell out of what the party has done for the last 15+ years. It's been the same mindset, the same business as usual bullshit. Trashing Bush and his lack of initiative to keep the economy from collapsing is actually a brilliant move. That message will resonate with a lot of Republicans. Sure you'll have the fringe that think the party can do no wrong and never has, and will always blame things on the Democrats, but that is not the majority. Again, there's a reason why his numbers are so high, and it's not because the people out there supporting him are a bunch of racist, right wing, crazies. He's appealing to a very broad scope of the voter base and the other runners represent everything that is wrong within the party. He won't win the nomination, but I'm sure it's an "oh shit" eye opener for the people who thought they had this figured out.0

Like how you're told to ignore his 4 bankruptcies because you're told so by the Rupert Murdoch media? *mic drop*Shawshank said:
I said weeks ago he floats left, and that along with his straight talk (agree with it or not) is where his popularity is based and where it will continue to grow. For the people that just see him as a clown and a fucking idiot because, well because you are told to, have you even read what he's said about revamping Obamacare? I don't mean getting rid of it...I mean dismantling it's current form and ending the Republican endorsed raping people are getting from the insurance companies. Have you read that he thinks people who can't afford insurance should be able to get it without being forced to pay? Have you read that he wants to eliminate state line insurance laws so that competition can increase and prices decrease? Has anyone read that he doesn't want to stop immigration, but wants to make it easier? Of course not, because everyone thinks he said every Mexican (except for a few assumed good ones) are rapists and murders. Has anyone read that he wants to take away many of the corporate tax loopholes that keep these multi-billion dollar companies running tax free? Has anyone read that he wants to give incentives to corporations who keep their manufacturing (i.e. jobs) in the US, and penalize those who don't?Gern Blansten said:http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/249062-trump-i-identify-with-some-things-as-a-democrat
This is great....he basically says the Dems wouldn't have crashed the economy like Bush did
Shit...like him or not...he's the only one who at least has some balance to him that's not way right or way left.0 -
Donald is going to get the nomination.
It will take awhile for it to sink in to the average brain that it is going to happen.0 -
At this point in the last election it was Herman Cain. A month later it was Rick Santorum. These early polls always favor the outliers with the long odds.PJfanwillneverleave1 said:Donald is going to get the nomination.

The poll asking who you would vote for on AMT has quite a list of candidates that I see with no odds.
Bush, Clinton and Donald are what is running.
Herman Cain, Rick Santorum? Who the hell are they?

Looks like The Worm is endorsing The Donald. Trump even thought Dennis little trips to North Korea were "smart"

Ahhh perhaps you are a Canadienne? They were the GOP fringe candidates in 2012 that led the polls early.PJfanwillneverleave1 said:^^^

If he had filed personal bankruptcy, you'd have a point. Chapter 11 corporate bankruptcies are a common tool used to restructure debt and free up capital in order to pay off the debts and still maintain operation. I've worked with companies that were over leveraged because everybody and their mother wanted to loan them money or the loans were risky to begin with and they were paying exorbitant points on interest. Then it hits a down swing and its either liquidate or file Chapter 11. I can assure you Chapter 11 is the smarter move for everyone, unless you were dumb enough to loan money that wasn't secured. Many companies companies come back stronger than ever. It would be stupid for a company not to take advantage of the laws that are there to help corporations. In many cases, chapter 11 will improve a company's value for investors, and really has no reflection on how the company is managed at all. But I'm sure you already know enough about bankruptcy laws and running a major corporation that you didn't need me to tell you that.InHiding80 said:

Plus, they usually always have the one who tried out the previous time get in in the long run next time. It happened to Romney and McCain. Since Trump was not in the debates for the primary or even ran last time, it won't happen just on tradition alone.rgambs said:

Trump is not getting the nomination but if he did it would be the best thi to happen to the Democratic Party. 16 straight years of the presidency would be all but guaranteed0

Trump has me going full Consipracy Keanu sometimes, I won't lie, regarding his possible trolling to make the GOP bad. Please tell me he's becoming the Andy Kaufman of politics instead of the Tom Cruise circa 2005 of politics.Cliffy6745 said:Trump is not getting the nomination but if he did it would be the best thi to happen to the Democratic Party. 16 straight years of the presidency would be all but guaranteed
