Trump - Make America Great Again!

[Superman]

wonder how much $$$$incerity that cost the GOP.

 

[Stewey]

I totally understand why Trump is wildy popular on this board.

Just on this board lol?

Given the lack of credible opponents in the GOP field, I even understand how Trump secured the Republican nomination.

This is entirely false. You had a selection of candidates each having solid political resumes...except for Trump and Fiorina...from the staunch conservative Cruz, to a Libertarian like Paul, to the moderate like Kasich. Quite a selection to chose from...a black and a woman as well.
Given the mere fact they were going to run against Hillary makes them all credible by default.

But for the life of me, I can't understand how any of you seriously think Trump can win a general election in this country. It just blows my mind, given the electorate around the nation. The numbers just don't add up, not by a wide margin. This is what we'll be watching between now and November....

But Tibs, for the life of you, you couldn't understand how anyone was taking Trump seriously from the get go.
So then you told yourselves that Trump mania was gonna to be short lived, a passing fancy soon to fade away...then for the life of you, you couldn't understand how that prediction wasn't unfolding.

Then as Trump began winning more and more primaries while his opponents were dropping like flies, you couldn't understand for the life of you how that was happening.

The polls a month ago revealed that Hillary would beat Trump by a landslide....today they are much tighter and you're still asking yourself how this could be happening???


Its called the Trump Train man.

 

[Tibs]

...you're still asking yourself how this could be happening???

Yes, that is correct.

 

[Tibs]

I just call it as I see it.

Indy, sorry I let you get under my skin. That post I wrote to you was crass and unneccesary, my apologies.

 

[Steeltime]

Yes, that is correct.

Tibs, you were posting stuff a month ago about how Trump was going to find a way to "pull out" of the race, weren't you?

Perhaps you should begin investigating the accuracy of the news sources you rely on and post here so frequently, no?

There has been a school of thought throughout - coming from both the right and the left - that perhaps Donald's heart wasn't really in this thing. That his emergence as front runner took him by surprise as much as it did everyone else. There have been times when he's stumbled so bad, be it at the Washington Post round table few weeks back, where again, close observers simply questioned his general knowledge and mental fortitude to see this thing through. I think those questions are legitimate and will remain all the way through the election. The notion that he's been looking for a way out, again, has been well documented going back months and months. He's dropped hints along the way, for those paying attention. Unless something unexpected happens, it seems pretty clear he's gonna carry on at this stage, for the better or worse.

Many scientists centuries ago posited that the earth is flat. That was their "school of thought." When we determined that the earth is not flat, we rightly concluded that those espousing the "earth is flat" theory were wrong, unreliable, and should not be believed.

I suggest we implement the same approach for the writers who have posited all sorts of crazy-*** **** about Trump (he is not serious about the run, he is going to pull out, he is a closet Democrat, he is out to destroy America, whatever) and treat them with the disdain they have earned.

Fair request, no?

Sure thing, have at it. Why is it so troubling to vet and be critical, analytical regarding a presidential candiate? If he's got nothing to hide, why so worried?

hahahaha - Crooked Hillary's campaign is tanking



Bill Clinton campaigns — in a hallway?

The lack of enthusiasm for Hillary Clinton’s candidacy is on full display in Kentucky at this hour.

Local media is reporting there will potentially be a very small crowd for Bill Clinton in Owensboro

While campaigns like to show off massive lines of people clamoring to get in the doors, the Clinton campaign will likely be doing their best to ignore this one.

44 News’ Amanda Chodnicki tweeted this video of the handful of fans waiting outside the Winchester Center.

Her video shows 21 people waiting in line.

Hillary should release her speech transcripts

Why the resistance and excuses?

Sanders campaign: Dems 'court disaster' in Clinton

"The Democratic Party must decide if they want the candidate with the momentum who is best positioned to beat (Donald) Trump or if they are willing to roll the dice and court disaster simply to protect the status quo for the political and financial establishment of this country"

The Sanders campaign has said it will continue to fight on in the remaining primary states as well as trying to flip Clinton superdelegates -- who are unbound until they vote during the convention -- while also planning efforts to shape the party platform.

CONTESTED CONVENTION!

Bwahahahaha - where's all those people saying it was the GOP that would have a brokered convention?

Bob Woodward Compares Hillary Scandal to Watergate

Hillary Clinton’s e-mail scandal has been a difficult one for the public to understand and for journalists to explain. But Bob Woodward, the Washington Post reporter who helped uncover Watergate 40 years ago, clarified things a lot on Fox News Sunday today when he said that an e-mail in the most recently released batch shows Hillary trying to “subvert the rules” that she expected others to follow.

The latest batch contains 66 additional examples of classified material that ended up on Hillary’s server, bringing the total to more than 1,200. This demolishes Hillary’s claim that she didn’t send or receive classified material on her personal account.

Bob Woodward said the latest revelation about Hillary’s e-mails reminded him of Watergate. He recalled that Hillary served on the staff of the House impeachment committee investigating President Nixon. “And what was the lesson, one of the lessons from that?” he asked. “Never write anything down. . . . Here, many years later, she’s saying, ‘Oh, let’s subvert the rules,’ and writing it out herself?” He concluded: It shows that she kind of feels immune, that she lives in a bubble and no one’s ever going to find this out. Well, now we have.

Trump charms GOP critics

Donald Trump is winning over his Capitol Hill critics after a one-day charm offensive that again demonstrates the power of his personality to drive his White House bid.

Trump’s closed-door charisma on Thursday triggered a fresh wave of GOP optimism across Washington

"I thought he has a very good personality. He’s a very warm and genuine person,” said Ryan, who declined to endorse Trump after the meeting at the Republican National Committee headquarters but suggested he was moving in that direction.

One of Trump’s most aggressive Washington critics, South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, seemed to agree.

“He’s got a great sense of humor,” said Graham, who spoke to Trump on the phone ahead of Thursday’s meetings After speaking with Trump on the phone, the senator softened his stance.

Fearing Trump, Democrats turn up pressure on Sanders to exit

WASHINGTON (AP) — Pressure is mounting on Bernie Sanders to end his campaign for president, with Democratic Party leaders raising alarms that his continued presence in the race is undermining efforts to beat presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump this fall.

Sanders is having none of it, frequently telling the thousands of supporters who attend his rallies that he still has a narrow path to the nomination.

"Please do not moan to me about Hillary Clinton's problems," Sanders said in a recent interview with MSNBC. "It is a steep hill to climb, but we're going to fight for every last vote."

FINAL PROOF!

TIBS IS HITLER!

 

[Troglodyte]

No mention of the recording of Trump pretending to be his own publicist "John Miller" and bragging about having multiple girlfriends.

If you heard the Today Show interview with Trump this morning you know it's Trump. He says "I don't THINK it's me" and pressed on it "I don't THINK it's me" and when pressed again, finally a definitive but defensive "it's not me... and really, it's from 25 years ago..."

Supposedly, he already admitted to it years ago, but insisted it was some kind of joke.

How does this kind of over the top narcissistic, ego-maniacal behavior not concern Trump supporters? I mean, who does something like that and what else is he capable of? Psychologically, this man is not right.

 

[Spike]

The liberal media are in full screaming meemie meltdown mode - desperately looking for any little scraps to hold on to on their sinking ships!


BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!


Washington Post columnist literally eats his words on Donald Trump

The dishes, prepared by the head chef at Washington, D.C.'s Del Campo restaurant, Victor Albisu, creatively incorporated newspaper pages into the recipes -- with some of the ink "mercifully well-ground" into the steak's chimichurri sauce, or sprinkled into the guacamole topping the taco bowl, or mixed into the chickpeas of the falafel.

To wash it all down: some Trump wines

Milbank consumed it all on a live Facebook video stream.

The hour-long meal, with recipes solicited from Washington Post readers, can be seen in full here:

It's from the 70's and sounded nothing like Trump. Even if it was him, who cares. He is no more narcissistic than any politician, including Hilldog and Bern, out there.

I hope The Donald brings up Watergate. Early glimpse of how Hillary works. She was fired from the House Judiciary Committee Watergate investigation team -

“Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said in an interview last week. “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”

She has always been consistent in these qualities. from - http://nation.foxnews.com/2014/02/2...thical-behavior-congressional-job-former-boss

Check your math, it's from the early 90's. It sounded like a younger Trump, and his denial was one of a person trying to deny something without officially denying it. It's him, no doubt in my mind.

He's narcissistic to the point of mental illness. As far as Bernie, he might be a lot of things, he's NOT narcissistic.

It would kind of comical if Bernie was a narcissist, but I agree that he is not. He's just incredibly stupid.

The recording sounds like Trump. I think it's funny. Who gives a ****? He was clowning around.

Perfect. That should be his new slogan. "Trump. Who Gives a ****?"

 

[Troglodyte]

The recording sounds like Trump. I think it's funny. Who gives a ****? He was clowning around.

If it was a joke, or he admitted to it already. He screwed up trying to deny it.

If he wasn't twice divorced, extremely unpopular among women and giving Hilary the holier-than-thou treatment about being an enabler to Bill's affairs it wouldn't be as bad. I wouldn't be surprised if he drops that routine real quick.

 

[Steeltime]

Sure thing, have at it. Why is it so troubling to vet and be critical, analytical regarding a presidential candiate? If he's got nothing to hide, why so worried?

Dateline: May 11, 2016 -The Washington Post has assigned 20 reporters to look into every aspect of Donald Trump's past as the presumptive GOP nominee seeks to become the next president of the United States, famed Post associate editor, Bob Woodward, said Wednesday.

http://www.exposepubliccorruptors.o...ton-post-assigns-20-reporters-dig-trumps-past

And how many reporters did the Post, the NY Times, the LA Times assign to dig up dirt on Obama? Yep, none.

Funny how little we hear about the admissions of a former Democratic Congressman, isn't it? The Congressman wrote:

"My main job is to keep my job, to get reelected. That’s why fundraising takes precedence over everything. (Unfortunately) it’s so time-consuming I seldom read any bills I vote on. Like most of my colleagues, I seldom know how the legislation will be implemented, or what it’ll cost."

"We spend money we don’t have and blithely mortgage the future with a wink and a nod. Everything’s for the here and now. Screw the next generation. . .It’s all about immediate publicity, getting credit now, lookin’ good for the upcoming election.”

http://congressmanx.com/excerpts/

So let's put 20 ... no, THIRTY ... **** it, ONE ******* HUNDRED reporters digging up dirt on Trump. That will make America better.

Meanwhile, Congress spends billions it does not have on projects that were never going to work and enacts hundreds of laws per year they did not ******* read and at a cost of ... well, **** it, they don't know and don't care.

But yeah, Tibs, keep jerking off to a report that Trump farted in an elevator in 1988.
