Trump - Make America Great Again!

[Vader]

Romney could have won 75% of the Hispanic vote and would have still lost. If he had won 4% more of whites he wins. The Hispanic vote is over valued. They don't like republicans because of border issues and welfare.

I've said this before but my wife is from California and grew up around and is even related to Mexicans by marriage. Many of them are illegal. Almost all of them hate the U.S. and would love to have more Mexicans here so they could get their country back.

Pros and Cons: Watching the Republican Debates

This is rumored to be Trump's tax plan:

$30,000 per year will pay 1 percent in federal income taxes
$30,000 to $100,000 will pay 5 percent
$100,000 to $1 million will pay 10 percent
$1 million or above will pay 15 percent

Returns would be filed on a postcard. I hope this is true!

This could work if tariffs make up the difference and maybe some foreign aid is cut. The economy would boom as joe average would have much more money in his pocket. If I only had to pay 10% federal...I'd have 15% more back. Over 15k a year back.

Pretty good overview of the Trump phenomena.

This was supposed to be the strongest GOP field in decades. Yet Donald Trump is leading it.

The main question, what is going to keep this from happening:

And here is a must-watch video detailing the current state of affairs in the GOP

A few things.

1 ) Perry was fine until he had to speak. Then he was done. Trump got where is is by speaking.

2 ) Gingrich he had more baggage than a 747, and had too much out there. Trump has nothing out there, politically speaking.

3 ) Trump has a lead with a larger field ( I think ) which makes his lead even more impressive.

Why doesn't the reporter at the Washington Times know that Perry isn't even in the debate?

at this point, Perry, like your best-selling book, has no shot.

Perry is in the second-tier early debate with the others who have no shot.
Trump, Carson, Fiorina, and Paul are the only ones who are not career politicians and have accomplished something in the private sector.
Although I'm thrilled that so many people think they can beat Hildebeast, realistically you've got Trump, Cruz, Paul, and Rubio who have a shot.

I'm wondering if Donald would be the first in a national debate to tell someone to go and F&ck themselves...

I can't wait until he says "You're Fired" to someone....

We should have a live thread about the debate tonight like we do with the Steelers games.

i doubt trump would trade 5 taliban officers for a single american deserter who put his own in harm's way to look for his pathetic ***.

- If Trump wins, which country should I move to?

How awesome would that be if Trump won AND all of the Libs moved out of the country!

For sure, the entire country can transition into one big Duck Dynasty, with Fox news the only tv channel, Breitbart the only website...and guns, loads of guns for everyone. Truly an Ayn Rand slash Ann Coulter utopian dream...oh, please Donald, make it happen!

 

[Spike]

I hear Venezuela is nice this time of year, a socialist paradise, or so I heard

 

[jitter77]

Someone here had posted how we are increasing jobs. Before obama care we had 1 job at 40 hours per week. Now companies dont want to pay the outrageous healthcare costs or penalties so they just make 2 jobs at 20 hours

Stereotyping specialist.

Man, the silence in here is deafening. What happened to Trump tonight? I was expecting a bunch of hooting and hollerin'

They're freezing him out. He got some good shots in though. It doesn't matter, he'll get his message out via massive advertising.

 

[Tibs]

Stereotyping specialist.

Exactly. When you write something as dumb as wanting liberals to move out of the country, you'll get a proportionately dumbass response.

 

[Tibs]

It doesn't matter, he'll get his message out via massive advertising.

Sure, as long as he can sustain it, it's only August. Maybe he can sell off some of his casinos or a couple of lear jets, pump some more money into tv commercials. It may work...

ps - the women vote is not something he needs to worry about, I think he did a great job tonight reaching out to women, showing a kinder, gentler side. For sure his poll numbers will be up with women voters, huge blow for Hillary no doubt...

 

[Buster]

YOU suggested that THEY would want to move out of the country....I just speculated on this possibility. Therefore, you need to hang the dumbass label on yourself...not me.
