I'm not sure Trump is serious about getting elected.

Trump straying from the script is killing him.
He's the worst candidate in my lifetime, and that's saying something, there have been a lot of bad ones.

Arab Spring, Libya, pulling troops out from Iraq, Red lines in Syria are all Obama and Hildebitch's doing. Trump is just pointing this out...the MSM, democrats and establishment GOPs will attack his every word and statement regardless of its truth or tone. It's survival for many of them if he gets elected.
Those 50 retreads in the intelligence community who say Trump will be worse for national security than what Hildebitch has already demonstrated should go away. Perhaps the reason our national security is/would be at serious risk is the results of their doing for the past several decades.

Imprimis notice how when any of these "intelligence geniuses" were associated with Bush polices they were liars, war mongers, baby killers etc etc, but NOW they are with the Hildabeast and suddenly enlightened intelligence savants. What BS and what a bunch of cowards.....my guess they are looking to "climb on board" for another post position in the Hillary cabinet! Just sickening really.....she still voted for the Iraq War and numerous people who now disavowed that disaster are on record in the 90's saying that Saddam was indeed a threat and also voted to throw him out.
NoName, no shit on Trump....he has absolutely got to let his associates fight those types of battles and in an infinitely more nuanced way. He just keeps hanging unnecessary weights around his neck. He is better candidate than Dole or McCain though. Maybe this is all part of the calculation though. Maybe he turns on a dime come Labor Day and starts to be more presidential knowing that the lying POS from the other side would spend huge sums of money to defeat Bernie and run numerous ads to beat him before Labor day. This race won't start in earnest until after Labor day and there are still more emails to come and Obysmal Care increases.

I don't know that he's better than McCain or Dole. He's not as conservative (and they weren't conservative enough for me) and they didn't say as many stupid things on a weekly (now it seems daily) basis.
I'll bet he's driving his campaign manager crazy. And if he were somehow lucky enough (and AI currently don't see how) to win, him saying crazy things could be disastrous.
That being said, he's still better than Hillary.

I think they said some goofy things (not the same level as the Trump'O Meter though) but since both Dole and McCain were decorated veterans, it made it much harder to attack them. Now it is blatantly obvious that the newspapers are gluing Hildabeast to their backs and trying to walk her across the finish line and while I can't remember all that went on back then, it seems the polar opposite views are all that get heard these days. Journalists are really wanting to be friends more than objective protectors of truth. The journalist remind me of the parents I watch in line at the store; when their kids are having a hissy fit about this or that, they try to bribe them with candy or coke to shut up, and behave. Same with journalist, they don't want to be ostracized, or left out of being in the in-crowd, so they toss softballs or worse pre-arranged softballs at the candidate they donate to and can identify with politically.
What I can't get my head around is that Trump is not an idiot, so is it remotely possible he is milking the coverage for all he can get (yes he makes a lot of unforced errors) and then gets very "politician like" after Labor Day? Can't believe he is trying to throw the race and can't believe in real life this is how he gets deals done so either this is part of the plan or he is just as crazy as all the rest of these fools and could care less if he wins or not. Really hope its the former.
In the end Trump is a manifestation of we the people who have been absolutely abandoned by the republicans and their lack of backbone, initiative and articulation of solutions.

Building a wall to help establish legitimate borders and seriously vetting immigrants to this country is not fear-mongering and ignorance. Choosing to ignore the fact that we are in a serious war with Islamic radicals is, however, ignorance of the highest degree.
Or it could simply be that he's the manifestation of YEARS of bullshit from the elite ruling class who have done nothing but serve themselves and their cronies, all on the backs of the taxpayers.
Adver, that is two of 535 people....which is a rounding error. Even accounting for Session's and M Lee, its still to few to make one dam bit of difference and the reason is because the big money and leadership (in general) are more interested in saving their proverbial careers as professional politicians then serving "We The People."
If Trump is the manifestation of years of fear-mongering (is that like throw grandma off the cliff stuff??), hate and ignorance there would be people standing in line outside TV stations to tell everyone what a clown he is. Haven't seen that yet, have you?
I'm not defending the guy either, he really could have this absolutely wrapped if he would just put every comment on a 5 second delay and think, but he doesn't seem to be able to do so.
I owe no allegiance to any party now and can see numerous things for what they are, in other words both parties are pretty much opposite sides of the same coin. Many people though say "x" is bad "y" is good and they don't care if "y" is seen burning a sack of kittens and "x" has been seen rescuing babies from orphanages and donating 90% of their income to charity each year, they still stick to their peeps.
What all this cuts down to is a person as good as their word and honest, or are they not. Looking across the landscape of politics, especially this cycle I see enough hypocrisy, lying and manipulation to last the next 200 years and really no one that sticks out as someone befitting to lead this nation.
Hell even the Republicans (and D's) are mostly for the H1-B1 visa program, which is an absolute abomination for US workers. Don't know where that cycle is in advertising and marketing, but if it is not already prevalent, it will be soon.

#121 on the Forbes 400 isn't part of the elite ruling class?
I'd give this a second thought if Trump was a retired enlisted man running a farm in Odessa.

I never say never, but the requirements for my position keep us pretty well insulated from foreign invasion.
Also, are they taking our jobs or our benefits? I've always enjoyed the "working so hard/lazily stealing entitlements" duality.
Trump is elite for sure...part of the political ruling class, not by a country mile.

Expanding H-1Bs, not surprisingly, has become a priority issue for oligarchs such as Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, and a host of tech firms, including Yahoo, Cisco Systems, NetApp, Hewlett-Packard, and Intel, firms that in some cases have been laying off thousands of American workers. Most of the bought-and-paid-forGOP presidential contenders, as well as themoney-grubbing Hillary Clinton, embrace the program, with some advocating expansion. The only opposition came from two candidates disdained by the oligarchs, Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.

Agreed. I'm hoping that there is some kind of insane genius running the Republican party and the strategy is just to mind blowing for the population to see through it.
We are going to end up with the Socialist Dems with a ton of strength and the Libertarians and the Republicans fighting it out for also-ran.
Either you play the game or you get out the game. That doesn't mean you agree with the game.
Maybe he's running for President because he's sick and tired of that kind of bullshit. I'd rather give a wild card like Trump a chance than another establishment sell out like most of the never Trump people.
You'll need to refresh me on what political offices Trump has held. Being wealthy doesn't equate to being the political elite. The fact that people like Trump can buy influence is the foundation of the problem.
Why does Trump bother the establishment repubes so much? Likely because he isn't doing things THEIR way.
It's unreal. The electing populace has jumped the shark. It would be funny if it wasn't so sad and terrifying.
That will be the story. If millions of people put their trust in him including indirectly the brexit British and he gets scared and blows it. I tend to think we are a month in to his purposeful sabotage. Hope I'm wrong but the alternative is he is just a short sided thin skinned petty baby.
Luckily my #neverhillary is strong.

I think it's much more likely that he's doing it to assuage his ego. No different than any other politician.
Or because they saw this train wreck coming a mile away and assumed he was destined to lose to Hillary.
I just can't believe that the first woman president will be that hag. It seems like women would vote against here just to keep that from being the case.
Ever wonder how it is that Google, Yahoo, Cisco, NetApp, Intel, Microsoft, Apple et al came to be the premier technology firms? Curious how it is that the top technology innovations come from the good ole USA? You might want to look at the actual value of the H1B program for the answer...
You're right. But, there's no doubt it's been abused and laws have likely been broken as well.
