Trump carries

Like I said earlier, Trump is the Obama of 2008.

I agree with this completely.

Trump is the Obama of 2008

I agree with this completely.

I don't necessarily agree with this. Obama has a revolutionary ideology that happens to be starkly anti-American, but he has a goal of transforming American into something that fits his image for it. Trump on the other hand is a self serving narcissist who I don't think has any ideology except making money and padding his ego. He hasn't done anything for anybody his whole life and his interest in the POTUS has nothing to do with what is best for the country. All the campaign rhetoric is BS. However, I do agree the public interest is somewhat the same regarding the discontent that brought this shit to the surface.

It's interesting and telling that you, as a Trump supporter, post this as a reason to be warry or Fiorina. Afterall, your boy has had FOUR companies go bankrupt. One of those four was partially made up of the remains of a previous Chapter 11 reorganization (The Trump Taj Mahal went bankrupt in 1991 and then again in 2004 as part of the Trump Hotels and Casino resorts). So technically, one business venture went bankrupt twice.

If having previous business failures is reason not to trust someone in the Whitehouse, then by the same standards, Trump shouldn't be trusted either.

Not my boy.

I already admitted Denniger is a bit off the rails.
You may want to read the second article I posted concerning Cruz and Fiorina.

Anybody have a count on just how many people his empire has employed?

The two men aren't even remotely similar. The public response and blind devotion to each is extremely similar.

I'm sorry, where did I say "no personal responsibility"? We were talking about Freedom. You know the kind the founders wanted.

Take it to a new thread.

[roberth]

That's probably the strongest conservative ticket in a long, long time.

Yes.

Agreed. It's a damn shame its getting wasted on this joke of an election.

Perhaps it won't be wasted.

[milwaukeeshaker]

Not about to waste my time, thanks.

Take it to a new thread.

None of that matters. Obama got elected because he was going to be the first black president and he said some things the dummys that don't vote Republican wanted to hear. Trump stands a chance of being elected because he's not partyline GOP and says some things the dummys that don't vote Democrat.

Look at the pressing social issues we're taking about right now, income inequality, people existing under crushing amounts of debt, only one paycheck away from disaster, a debate about who can use which bathrooms, whom can marry who, etc. If you had a conversation with an acquaintance about your "friend," who had racked up an unsustainable amount of debt, felt they deserved twice the pay for their job, demanded free college, always talked about equal rights, etc, the person you were taking to would assume your "friend" was some 18 year-old still living at home that hadn't gotten their act together yet. Most people don't have their act together enough to consider the finer points of a candidate's platform. This country is on the path it's on because the populace has a difficult time existing outside of a group mentality, not because of who was in office each term.
