Trump
 
Looks like he's the man vs Clinton. Full disclosure I'm a Trump guy does he have a chance and what does this election mean for our country?

lil bubba 05-05-2016 04:44 PM

Does the remainder of the elections go on??? If not he doesn't have the required number he needs and at the convention they can put in whoever they want...Cheap trick??? We are talking about politicians...

mriguy 05-05-2016 05:01 PM

I think he has a chance, the Republicans will get out and vote and the Democrats may not. Trump may also destroy Killary in the debates. With all that being said. ...

While not a big Trump guy, I am voting for him and I still think a vote for the Libertarian candidate will basically be a vote for Hillary.

jchief 05-05-2016 05:11 PM

And, just think what the country will be like when Rosie, Sharpton and others leave the country if he is elected.

He has a chance but will be a terrible president unless he appoints the right people and they can actually keep him in check. Of course I'll vote for him just to keep Hillary out. The next 4-8 years are crucial in determining which way this country goes.

Not real sure what everyone sees in Trump. He says the right things, but has zero way to back anything he says. If Hillary turned a 180 on every one of her political views, none of yall would like her. Same exact thing Trump has done. Hell he was a Clinton supporter his whole life. Don't even get me started on every other political stance he has flip flopped on.

fonikoddity 05-05-2016 05:55 PM

How many sets of "the next 4-8 years will be crucial" do we need before we realize that a viable third party is the only option. A vote for any party other than the Democratic Party has proven to be useless for the last 8 years anyway. Now it appears the same for at least the next 4. How about jumping off the 2 party bandwagon and doing something different? It may seem futile if you look at it from the perspective of a single election, but it's going to take a gravitational shift from the norm to fix this mess in which we lie.

Trump ain't the answer.

Ditto.

If republican voters don't stay home on Election Day and cry that their candidate wasn't the chosen one, like they historically do, Trump stands a decent chance at beating Hillary. I'm hoping Bernie supports do that exact thing cause let's face it, no way in Hell will those hipster Socialist supporters support Trump. All I know is Hillary cannot be President if we want America to still be America in 10 years from now. I'm 100% on the Trump train now. Might even go get me a bumper sticker! Lol

100% correct IMO.......BUT it's too late for this round.....that has to be started the day after the next president is elected.......AND it's not just republicans that will start the third party.......BERNIE is getting a ton of support as well.

Trump will be a one term president.........but he will test the boundaries of where the asshat we have now has taken us. It will drag the Joe Q public kicking and screaming back to a "normal" of sorts.

We have .03% of our population affecting us all

There is likely to be 4-5 vacancies in supreme court come up in the next 4-8 years, so IMO, this is the most important 4-8 years we have had in a longgg time. If you don't get that, then I can't help you. You really want to vote 3rd party and help Hillary create a 7-2 favor of her ideaologies, then go for it. YOU'll be part of the problem.

Trump may suck, but everyone has to suck it up this election and vote for him. If you don't, you're ensuring that Hillary ruins America as you know it, and there will be no coming back from that short of a civil war. Vote Trump now, and hopefully within 4 years people will back a 3rd party candidate.

I will also vote for Trump, but this election reminds me of the last President's election. Republican's putting another rich guy with a big ego against another Democrat. Hope the result are different this time, but I think not.

It's not too late for this round to start the change is what I'm saying...of course no candidate on the outskirts is going to swoop in and win the presidency...but the shift in momentum has to start somewhere...it won't happen in one election cycle, and that's what the powers that be count on.

Repeating the same process and expecting different results is the definition of insanity.

Trump train is rolling. Get in, sit down, shut up, and hold on. Gotta play with what we've been dealt.


On a serious note I watched an interview recently with Trump being asked about how he was going to staff the people around him. It was the most level headed and calm I've seen him, I was impressed. I guess now that he's finished skull dragging all the politicians he can somewhat behave and start moving towards legitimate issues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNHkAfMFgMY

You're right, he can only serve one term. Anything more and he is then a career politician. We can have anymore of that.

I also understand the pressure to compromise because you refuse to see a once great nation fail.

Visco 05-06-2016 08:15 AM

This country needs someone like Trump in the white house... I personally do not care who it is, as long as he/she is an *******... And forces change.

Trump is that in my book. He may not make the changes we need during his term... But I truly believe he will turn heads and get our country at least focused back in the right direction. That would be a success in my book.

We have gone in the wrong direction for far to long for one man to fix it all in one or two terms.

You must not be paying attention because the republicans want nothing to do with Trump. Trump invited himself. He is not part of the establishment much to the dismay of the republicans.

duckman1911 05-06-2016 12:10 PM

I think Trump can be great or be a total disater. With the right cabinet good things can happen if he listens to them. If he doesn't it's crash and burn. I would love to see a third party have a legit chance of winning. That would require the overhaul of a completely biased system.

Regardless if the republicans want him or not he will be the one was my point.

Read what Newt Gingrich had to say about DJT.
Newt is one of the sharpest guys in Washington, so when he weighs in on something that I'm unsure about, I like to hear his take.

eman 05-08-2016 05:35 PM

Why i'm not staying home.
 
Trump and Cruz were being politicians with their back and forth rhetoric. They all do and say bad stuff about their opponents, it is politics as usual! BTW: I voted for Cruz here in Louisiana. But I will support Trump and not be 'childish' saying if 'I can't have my way, I won't play'. I am very disappointed in Romney's and all three Bush's joining the 'division' ranks. There is too much at stake to give up and waste a vote. For the first time in history, we are voting to preserve our Bill of Rights, and fight off a REAL threat of socialism; it is serious! We can't take another 4 or 8 years of all of this politically correct crap; firing people for something they said, losing either our freedom of speech or our livelihood, taking our gun rights away as fast as they can, forcing women to accept men in their toilets and young girls to undress and shower in front of boys, The next POTUS will be appointing at least 3 maybe 4 supreme court justice, If hillary wins and appoints liberal anti gun judges we will loose our 2nd amendment rights, once the second amendment is gone so go the rest, These liberals have gone too far and right now Trump may be the only one to stop this crap. There is no perfect candidate. Conservatives need every vote they can muster because I suspect there will be unbelievable voter fraud favoring the liberals. (illegals will be voting in California, they have driver's licenses and that's all they need to vote there). Obama and the Democrats are following Hiitlers play book to the letter while the republican party is falling apart and allowing themselves to be divided...Good grief, what is wrong with these people? Let's keep our eye on the ball.......we don't want socialism!

I think the real test of what Trump will become as a Prez is when he announces his replacement to the SCOTUS replacement of Scalia. That's when we will know if he is a true conservative or just a con man (which I suspect will be the latter.)

The entire system today without a third party is based on a "bogeyman" if you are conservative.....it's a liberal.......a liberal it's a conservative.

Trump is hard to peg. Which frankly I think is good.

The mere fact that Bernie has the votes he has shows that the libs are just as fed up with the BS too.

The middle of America is being ignored while the squeaky wheels are getting greased.

All the while both sides are taking the fat for themselves from the middle.

I don't think our guns are going to get "taken" any more than I believe transvestites are lining up to use the bathrooms. I also don't think anyone has any damn business how many guns I have in my house, and I don't believe we should be making special arrangents for perverts to piss.

Commend sense hopefully, will prevail soon.

Don't underestimate Trump, Nobody gave him a chance initially and he's gotten more votes in the primarys than any Rebublican ever. As far as what this means for our country, it's now or never, she gets elected it's Obama in a dress. Is he gonna be a true conservative - no, but his ideas definitely resonate with a lot of voters, So yes I think he's got a chance.
