For those that just cannot understand why Trump should be
Mar 7, 2016, 12:58 AM
|

our next president. This clip explains it better than I ever could. Finally somebody understands it. It's similar to why Tommy Bowden needed to be replaced, and Jack Leggett (and I liked him), and now Brad Brownell - some people just don't understand that change is needed. For those that stuck with CTB, CJL, and now CBB through until the very end, maybe this clip will help you understand about "change".

Is one a lunatic for trying something that has failed throughout history? If Trump is a lunatic, I guess that just makes Bernie stupid.

It could have been a Socialist paradise. Bernie will show them how it's done.
Or like Cambodia, the ruling class just needs to execute all the educated people and everything's fine. Millions of executed people don't b*tch. It's about time the Democrats bring that progress to America.

Ummm, not to be impolite but "Democratic Socialism" is the very antithesis of "Socialism".
They are not the same thing at all!
Amazing that people don't understand this.

Sanders is a declared socialist-closer to a communist and has never made any money. He never had a regular job until he was elected mayor of Burlington, VT. Then, he became a Congressman and Senator. If it weren't for his guaranteed government jobs, he would not have enough money to retire on at his current age of 74. He is clueless about economics and lives in a fantasy land. Trump has issues too, but the voter is always choosing the least of all evils.

In 1982 Trump reported that he had $500million and he claims he now has $10billion. If he put his money into an unmanaged S&P500 fund, he'd have $20billion today.
This means that while he did "grow" his investments, he did it poorly, and at half the annual rate that the average S&P500 company did. He's not some brilliant financial genius or developer. He's a blowhard with a big mouth and a penchant for licensing his name to put all over everything. Many of his biggest ideas have blown up in his face. He'd be twice as rich if he did nothing but retire 34 years ago.
When Rubio said Trump would just be selling watches if not for his inheritance (money and name), I think he was spot-on.

You've been listening to little Marco too much.....
I think I'd rather have a president that got rich the old fashioned way than someone who sat on a beach sipping margaritas their entire life.
Glad someone who has proven they know nothing about business and the economy is on their way to dropping out of the race....

Man you Trump haters are all over the place.
One of you claim he's an idiot for not investing his money and sitting on his ###....
The next claims he inherited everything he's got....
Here's the truth:
In 1974 Donald Trump took over his father's company, eight years later it was worth 200 million dollars and 30 years later Trump has started hundreds of companies and is worth 10 billion dollars.
If you want to talk about his ego (which they all have), his personal attacks (which they all do), or his bad hair and awful tan that is perfectly fine....
But to go after him as a business man and pretend he doesn't know how to make money is absurd.

Trump turned 20 mill into over 3 bill. He says only 1 mill but idk. Either way most people would be broke by now after getting that much and he has turned it into Billions of dollars. Don't hate on the mans money situation. You can hate on everything else. He knows how to make money that's a fact

That reminds me of the establishment response to the Vietnam War protesters. "America, love it or leave it." The idea being that if you don't like American Government then you should move to another country. That same idea is in direct contradiction to the Bill of Rights and the Constitution.
Intolerance never solves anything....it just pizzes everyone off.

He may bring change, but by the time you get rid of him, it is 10x time worse than when he started and he might just drop the bomb and blow the place up. Do you want America to end up like Tenn??

He wants trade wars which will cause another recession. And he wants to bomb women and children.
His ultra nationalism (build a wall, deport all Muslims, etc.) and desire to "bring all the jobs back" reek of fascism.

Would you have surgery by a surgeon who has never actually operated on anybody before? Would let a mechanic work on your car that had never worked on a car before? Being President of the United States, which some say is the hardest job in the world, is not a job for amateurs.

You will soon learn of the scam that Trump has played on you and millions of other Americans who lack the intelligence to see what is happening. Trump has for years supported the Clintons and he has opened the door for Hillary to win by a landslide. Which, in my opinion, is a good thing

^^^Ronald Reagan says "Hi". He was a darn good actor too.
Actually - he was a gov of CA for a few years.
Bottom line is: America needs change, and anybody but another Clinton, especially Hillary. She has proven that she makes horrendous decisions, and definitely does not need to run our country. Trump is the only possible solution to beating that woman.

I'm especially fond of Trump's plan to enforce 35% tariffs
Mar 7, 2016, 11:00 AM
|
|
on Chinese and Mexican imports to help with the trade imbalance so his buddies can get better "deals" selling overseas. Nothing like a 35% price increase for consumers on basics like clothes and air conditioners to "make America great again." Threatening to sue the press (i.e. attacking the first amendment) and calling for boycotts of American companies when you don't like their policies also leaves me with the warm fuzzies for sure.
Trump is a fear monger who apparently checks in daily with the wind direction for his "policy" initiatives. He is in no way fit to raise his right hand and swear to protect our constitution. I would recommend to Trump supporters to get over your fears and find a better way to improve your lot in life.

Trump uses a lot of words but he very rarely ever says anything. Plus he has so many quotes supporting policies that are opposite of a typical GOP platform. Too many red flags for me.

after buying businesses that were already beginning to fail. If you really want to see what Trump is like, watch "You've Been Trumped" on Amazon.com. Those poor people in Scotland could tell you a thing or two.
I've never seen people in the US get so violently angry and defensive over a politician, and think that one man is our only hope. And, apparently, he can do no wrong. That is not healthy.
Can you imagine him representing the US in negotiations with leaders of the world?
